One of my favorite albums. we used to listen to it in our room, in college. whenever Rain would come on, we would all stop talking and just listen. still one of my favorite songs

My favorite hard rock album of the '70s. I was 15 when I first heard this. Glad you're enjoying it, Jim!

Excellent album, superb musicianship and recording✨ and still going strong👍 Also worth noting between 1970-1972 this was their 5th studio album, outstanding!

This album and Close to the Edge by YES came out within a month of each other. I probably bought them both at the same time at our small town local record store. This era of music was the greatest ever!🤩

David Byron, Ken Hensley, Gary Thain, Lee Kerslake and Mick Box was the best line up for this fantastic Band.

Good evening Jim, I know this album very well and already for a long time. Great album and you’ll love it. Demons and wizards is even better imho.

@GalegHelross Месяц назад

Looking forward to this. I've definitely never listened to a full UH album and I'm pretty sure I only know 3-4 UH songs. Definitely a band I've overlooked.

@tallgrayandgruesome Месяц назад

Thx Jim, I had never heard this album. My experience with UH was Demons & Wizards and Sweet Freedom.

Exceptional bass guitar work from Gary Thain throughout - if ever there was an under-rated bassist it was him.

@rudolfbecker4313 29 дней назад

Sunrise 🌝 what a great song to start into the week 😆 this is one of my 2 favourite Uriah Heep LPs, 2nd is Demons and Wizards. But this one has my favourite Uriah Heep song : The Magicians Birthday .... I'm wondering how much you will like it 🤔🤘

@timcoombe 26 дней назад

I like that when you introduced Blind Eye, you almost poked yourself in the eye with your glasses. Also didn’t Wishbone Ash also have a track with dual guitars called Blind Eye

@tonygrinney7115 Месяц назад

Hi Jim! Blind Eye dual guitars sounds very Wishbone Ash, just to confuse things more, Wishbone Ash had a song called Blind Eye from their first album but it was a different song. Well deserved album of the month!

@lazarus550 Месяц назад

Love this album although Demons is still my favourite Heep album. David Byron one of the greatest voices in rock. Rain is a perfect song

@WooBino. Месяц назад

Album cover by Roger Dean!

@JimNewstead Месяц назад

It sure is!

@clansome Месяц назад

Side 2 is a better than Side 1 imo, maily because of Sweet Lorraine !! RIP all those mentioned save for Mick Box, he's still rocking Uriah Heep even today. A very "Uriah Heep" album this one, sounds a rather obvious thing to say, but back in the 70's it was "comforting" as well, not bad, not exceptional. You could just spin the disc and know what to expect.

@jeffschielka7845 Месяц назад

Hey Jim! UH!! Great album. I've had this album for decades. Love it and I'm sure you will too! Enjoy my friend. 👍😎

@porflepopnecker4376 Месяц назад

Every single time I listen to this album, it reminds me, yet again, of just how great -- how truly, truly great -- I am.

@TerryKrysinski Месяц назад

Liked this one alot way back in the day. Got to see them after it's release,and just before the next one- Sweet Freedom,came out. They played 4-5 tracks from is as a teaser. Probably their last great one as they went downhill from there (for me at least). Have you reacted to Look At Yourself yet,Jim? THat and Demons & Wizards are the top of the Heep. ;-) Cheers, T

Producer Gerry Bron: "At that point they were under pressure. I was very careful to try and make an album at a regular interval, and they were touring and, you know, there was a lot of things going on. I think it was very hard for them to make a better album... I think 'Magician's Birthday' was an attempt to recapture 'Demons and Wizards' and it almost did it, but I think it failed a little bit. It was quite a successful album."
