[Heeplist] Heeplist] Heeplist] UH singers

[Terje Pedersen]

Always great to hear Heep on the radio, it doesn’t happen too often. Not here anyway since the radio channels here sucks.  Normally the radio channels here play either only 80`s music since they all grew up then or they play mainstream crap.  One channel I know always play Bryan Adams and Bon Jovi almost every morning, and I`m so tired of it. One morning I turned it on they were playing "the summer of 69" for the thousand time and I cursed and switched channels, the other channel was playing...you guessed it. The same bleeding song lol  

More Heep on radio!!!  ;-D

Guys,
You won't believe it!
Just got off work, cruising down the highway, listening to the KISM state side rock station, I usually don't listen to our rock stations in BC because they never play Heep .
Some listener requested Stealin.
Ohh did it sound good on FM radio cranked.
Byron sounded awesome!

It is such a treat to hear Heep on FM radio, for me anyway.
I do enjoy the sound of Hensleys organ back then, it sounded more grittier.
Must be old school sound and technology.
I'm not going to beat the horse tonight regarding the discussion over songwriting, I might take a wack at it another time.
Guys, I will give credit to Ken for writing that one !
Don
