Shawn!!  That is very profound words and you hit the nail on the head!!
They are aging well and getting better.  I have said many times over the
years.  Heep output may not be what it was in the magical byron era but
Heep current output is mcuh stronger than anything any band from the
70's still around is recording now.  Someone could argue BS 13 or Deep
Purple Now What possibly, but other than that, I can't think of any!!
