[Heeplist] Ken Hensley

[Igor Shveitser]

 Shawn,
I rate Abominog as the best album of the "re-formed" 80-s Heep-wise (although it lacks most of the classic Heep ingredients), Raging Silence is the second in my hit-parade if we talk about that time :)))) Both Head First and Equator are definite steps away not only from classic Heep sound but into obvious mediocrity. Mediocre and mostly primitive, kind of sleazy music played and composed by very good musicians. But after years of  trying to like it I finally managed to like first 3 songs off Equator and only the first one from Head First... As for RS - still not Heep really, but better songs anyway and I quitу like the album after all those years.
Cheers, Igor
