Spice

After the breakup of the Stalkers in 1967, Mick Box and David Byron formed Spice which went on to become Uriah Heep.  When former Gods member Paul Newton was added it pretty much solidified the unit.  No official album was ever released, only one single.  Other tracks are found on a compilation known as "The Lansdowne Tapes" which has been reissued several times and expanded to include rare Uriah Heep out takes.  The single A & B side were included on the Uriah Heep box set "Time Of Revelation"
