THE MUSIC BLOGGING HIVE MIND

THIS ONE IS FOR MY NEW FRIEND WHO APPARENTLY ENJOYS MID-SEVENTIES (HEAVY SLUDGE) ROCK>

Posted about 1 year ago
Uriah Heep was one of my guilty pleasures. Not overly talented, with mediocre song-writing abilities, they were none-the-less a favorite for a few years. Their shows were pounding riffs and thrusting fists and heads a-bobbin' and sweet-scented smoke.This track, which features 'Manfred Mann' on synthesizer was a favorite of my friend Bob. He would lip-sync the Synthesizer part with the most hillarious(?), rubber-faced performance you'll ever see. If (by some strange chance) you were buzzin' he'd get you laughin' so much you'd beg him to stop.For that reason this track always evokes a smile from me.

    Somebody posted on this July morning about how great one of Heep's albums is, but supplied no mp3.  My roommate has finished downloading porn for the day, apparently (I imagine he's moved on to making a mess of the kitchen or bathroom), so I now have the bandwidth to listen to Mog's red buttons.  I like this tune just fine!  That falsetto passage took me by surprise.
