Thanks Mark, I still think that was an awesome lineup.  I have always loved
Paul Newton's bas work and the story of his departure is sad.  I was also
trying to make a point that by the time Demons & Wizards came out, the band
was down to 3 original members and in two years went through several bass &
drummers.  The argument could be made that the Look at Yourself lineup was
the classic lineup and the D&W was the sellout to commercialism.  Yet D&W
seems to be the gold standard for classic Heep.  At the very least a Gold
Lp!  :-)
