[Heeplist] (no subject)

[Shawn Mctopy]

*URIAH HEEP* have a classic past that can't be denied, but their newer
music is really good too.


Instead of resting on their laurels, the band has the drive and passion to
create new and energetic music as well.


Some older bands kind of fizzle out, but* HEEP* just keep getting better,
in my opinion.

The band last three albums - very powerful! I think a lot of younger bands
would be hard pressed to consistently & energetically rock onstage, and in
the studio, like *URIAH HEEP* do.


*'WAKE THE SLEEPER'*, *'INTO THE WILD'* and now *'OUTSIDER'* - three great
and rockin' albums in a row ... *Wow!*

Another thing I like about the band is the diversity of their music. The
group's music touches on a lot of different styles & moods within the genre
of hard rock music.




Take Care ... and as always - Keep A *HEEP'n!*
