Tokyo Japan 73
The master reel of this footage has never surfaced, yet a few video files have surfaced on several different compilation discs. A complete video of the entire concert in black and white footage has been traded for years. At least three of color shots have surfaced and some of the film was included on the VHS tape One July Morning released in Russia. A major portion was also included on the DVD set Classic Heep From The Byron Era by Classic Rock Productions but the film was overdubbed with Live 73 audio. This puzzles many fans to this day since good audio has been shared from those shows for years.
The video itself contains classic Live 73 sets with Byron and the rest of Uriah Heep at the highlight of their career. A packed stadium and fans jumping out of their seats in excitement. Sad that something this good has never been put out in full remasted form.
