[Heeplist] new here

[Nick Goeders]

Hi there (not sure who?),
I am from a little state in the United States called Louisiana!!!  I am a
scientist by trade at a medical school (actually a dept head), but I have
never lost my love for Uriah Heep for the past what, 40-45 years, WOW.  But
I am sure everyone will agree - nothing comes close.  Sure, there are other
musicians that I listen to, but none touch me like UH.  Not just the music
but the lyrics, the entire picture.  I so wish that I could have witnessed
live, "Friday night in Birmingham" and "got some chewing gum on me boot" and
so on...
I also have a lot of YES music - lol.  I did just like you did - especially
when I would travel from here to LA or New York or Boston - I would go to
the major and out of the way record stores searching...
Over the years I branched out to Sabbath and more recently (the last 25
years?) to some heavy metal (PanterA, Rammstein), but like I said, nothing
can compare to UH.
I do hope that I can see today's UH live - it's on my bucket list.  I
finally got my Shelby last month - now it's time for UH.  Please come to the
southern USA Uriah Heep.
Nick

Hi Nick, most of us are late 50's early 60's.  There are a few younger heep
fans here, live in Russia or had heep loving Parents.  What country are you
from Nick?
I am in the USA in a state called New Jersey.  I used to comb record stores
for years, always looking in the U section for new Heep.  I can proudly say
because of my diligence I never missed a heep release.  I did however miss
Ken's Free Spirit and From Time To Time, I found those much later after they
came out.  Also because I spent so much time in the U section, I ended up
with a lop sided collection of late alphabet groups, like Yes, Wetton, Neil
Young, Y&T, Ultravox etc.
