Reggie you’re such a down to earth dude. You were giving me lessons in that dump in Pennsauken across from Zaph’s. We’d go there n pick out a guitar, amp and more. I kept bringing home stuff, my wife than would ask how much I spent. I’d always say you lent them to me! 🎸🤣. You guys had it all from the songs, stage presence, professionalism and true Rock Gods. I don’t understand the music today. Love seeing bands today that still play in that Genre. Glad you guys get together but bummed I miss your shows. Mucho Respect! I’ll catch ya’s next time you play out.

Reggie I saw heavens edge in the mid 80"s at the village night club in Lancaster Pa, you are the reason I bought an Ibenez 770, and still have the CD. I'm now 55, thanks for taking me back in time! I'd love to go back to those days. Never stop playing.

Reggie, you are part of my life's soundtrack. I've seen you a few times live with Heaven's Edge and you've influenced and inspired me as a guitarist. I miss those good old days seeing you, Teeze/Roughhhouse, Sic Vikki. I loved the Empire Rock Club, Bonnie's Rocks, The Galaxy. I'm 50 now,but those were the best times of my life. Thank You

just discovered the band and have been listening to the 1990 album non stop. how come "Find Another Way" was not the 1st video/single. That is a rock radio hit if there ever was one.

Reggie is inspiring here, but he was also so inspiring as my guitar teacher. Helped me see music differently. Hear music differently. I still play today and think of him often. I hope to give my son at least half the inspiration Reg gave me.

Many thanks for creating and uploading this insightful footage. Major respect to you Reggie! Few of my generation back in Uk would have been exposed to Heaven's Edge, but thankfully I caught your brilliance, watching MTV on an Italian holiday back in 1990.. When I finally was able to track down the album seven years or so later, you guys kept me company blasting out the stereo, trip after trip, up and down the motorway to London, visiting my girlfriend... (The relationship was a crazy one and the songs helped me get by). Your wise words here serve as good inspiration for my own current music making (-; All the best, cheers

I was absolutely blown away by the 1st Heaven's Edge album and how much of a monster shredder Reggie is. A shame the band never got any bigger than it did. I hope we get some new music from them soon, or maybe even a Reggie Wu solo album! That would be way cool!

Wow, this was a great interview. Its a shame they had such troubles just after getting signed. I still play their first CD on regular rotation and I am always telling people who love rock and metal to check them out. Most people have no clue about them, but always come back telling me how much they love that first CD. Timing was everything and its a real shame they lost their window. Even though that's the case, their music is sort of timeless. It came out in 1990 and I still blast it loud as hell in 2017!

Great person very well spoken, intelligent, warm, and kind a true musician. I understand all of his stories (which are true) about being in a band back then. I was so mortified when Alice In Chains and all that rubbish hit that I stopped caring about the current scene. I got into the 60s and 70s music it took over. I tried to form a band sort of in the vein of what would have accidentally not been too good looking back, but nobody wanted to make what I call "Love music." Now I don't believe in bands I want to change the way things are just do it all one man. Back then it was scary to be in high school and some of my friends didn't survive. I am glad Reggie is a true musician and a great person. This oral history warms my heart.

Sad thing is the 80s and 90s hold a treasure trove of amazing hard rock and metal musicians! All whom youll never know about. G.E. Smith once was asked "who's the greatest guitarist out ther"? He responded " You'll never know. The best ones never make it".

I used to watch Heavens Edge play in De at a place called Union Station. Had the privladge of being backstage with them at the Empire Rock Club once. Reggie was so freaking awesome, I used to be so frustrated wanting to play cool Heavens' Edge tunes in my band , and jsut couldn't pull off any of his solos :(

it's unbelievable how you guys couldn't be more popular elsewhere. it really goes to show that only Philly knows real talent. Alice in Who? i don't own or couldn't tell you a single song from them. But I went through a shitload of trouble to get your album on vinyl because Heaven's Edge is legit.
