Uriah Heep has gained more notoriety in recent years as pioneers of combining heavy rock and progressive pop / rock. "Look At Yourself" is another trademark song, likewise "July Morning". "Why ?" is a piece containing arguably one of guitarist Mick Box' moments as a whole. He is the only original member in the band's current line-up all though it has been stable for years.

I saw these guys in concert with Wishbone Ash in the early '70's. It took place in a relatively small concert hall that sat about 3,200 people. Both bands were absolutely incredible and one of the best concerts I've ever seen. The entire Demons and Wizards is a fantastic album. One song you must, you must, you must do is Phoenix by Wishbone Ash off of their debut album.

@@alexseraofficial9765 Well, yeah, I kinda get what you mean, but still, to me, there's a bit of distinction between them. Uriah Heep made songs like, "The Wizard", "Magician's Birthday", "Gypsy" and "Sunrise", these songs tell stories that give a person that feeling of like, fantasy and or something from the medieval time period and to me, that's unique. I've never got that type of feeling, listening to Deep Purple's music, but, I do respect your opinion. They implement the same type of instruments, so in that way, I know what you mean, they have that kind of sound.

Nice way to keep mixing up the genres and time periods, guys. If there is an interest in diving into more "eclectic" sounding British music from the late 1960s/1970s, Jethro Tull might be worth a shot. Some of the more highly recognized Tull songs could include "Aqualung," "Locomotive Breath," "Living In The Past," and "Bungle in the Jungle" among others. If there is interest in going with a more direct 1970s rock sound from a British band, Bad Company might be a choice. Song options include: "Bad Company," "Can't Get Enough," "Feel Like Makin' Love," "Shooting Star," and "Rock and Roll Fantasy" as all recognizable hits. Hope the suggestions may help...keep up the great work!

Another 1960s/early 1970s UK band that might, unfortunately, not be as well remembered but worth a shot for a reaction is Badfinger. For those that may not be aware, the band that would become Badfinger auditioned in front of The Beatles for that band's Apple Recods and after The Beatles, Badfinger was reportedly the 2nd act signed to the label. There is an urban (musical) legend that some music fans of the time, as Badfinger was gaining popularity and due to their close relationships with The Beatles (who were in the midst of their breakup but still individually continued to work with Badfinger), could possibly be The Beatles recording under a different name. During Badfinger's peak, the group had 4 top 10 hits in the US and 3 top 10 hits in the UK during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Their most recognizable songs might include: "Come and Get It" (written by Paul McCartney), "No Matter What," "Day After Day" (performed on and produced by George Harrison), and "Baby Blue" (produced by the successful American artist Todd Rundgren; This song was significantly featured in the series finale of "Breaking Bad," which Nick may be a fan of if his choice of t-shirts in earlier reactions is any indication). While the group's biggest success was limited to just a few years, many musicians and music critics have pointed out Badfinger as a group besides The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and other heavyweights that could switch between pop and rock music at a time when that might be more uncommon for bands. A great example of this is the fact that the very well known ballad "Without You" (written by members of Badfinger) was a smash hit by Harry Nilson, a close friend of John Lennon's at the time. Unfortunately, Badfinger's fate became a terrible cautionary tale of the music business. With Apple Records struggling due to the litigation and in-fighting among The Beatles, along with what some believe was not equitable treatment by Badfinger's management, two of the members tragically took their own lives. Despite such an unfortunate development, Badfinger left behind a lot of very interesting music for its time period and helped show, in some ways, the types of directions that former Beatles members may take in their own future solo musical endeavors. Badfinger is definitely worth giving a shot to on the channel if the guys want to continue down this 1970s UK musical journey.

Guys, what you need to try and remember and appreciate is while we were growing up with all these amazing bands, that each and every one were completely new sounds to us. We were inundated with a barrage of some of the greatest music of all time. We'd catch these bands on the radio and then explore them by buying albums and going to their concerts. As a generation we matured musically with each band on each of their new releases. It became somewhat of a friendly contest to see who could discover the newest up and coming hot band and introduce them to our crowd of friends. When they say it was the time of "sex, drugs and rock and roll" accept it as gospel.

David Byron was a very talented vocalist--had his own style but was right up there with Ian Gillan and Robert Plant at the time. You can hear him shine in "July Morning" and "Circle of Hands". One of my favorites, a longer song with a section highlighting Mick Box's guitar and Lee Kerslake's drumming, is "The Magician's Birthday". Kerslake was a top drummer and, I believe, was in Ozzie Osborne's first solo band. "Stealin'" is well worth a listen as are many others.
