Igor,

>From the albums I own, I have yet to hear a *'Bad'* album from *URIAH HEEP*.

I really like the version of *'Different World'* that is on the
excellent *'ACOUSTICALLY
DRIVEN'*  album.

I really love their *'Acoustic'* album! I purchased it on a whim, and
totally fell in musical love with it. It has become one of my favorites
from *The HEEP*.

Take Care, Igor.

*Shawn -*
