[Heeplist] Byron era and the others

[Stan From Home]

Glad to see the magic of early Heep is ageless. It was certainly magical to me as well back in 72 when I started listening to Heep at 16 years old!, and is still magical, that is the Byron era.

I think current Heep is keeping the magic alive quite well. I also see some magic in Sea of Light and Sonic Origami. I see it in Trail of Diamonds!, and here in there in the last 3. But more straight ahead rock and roll in the last 3, like Gypsy and Look at Yourself!

Thanks
Stan

I think the Byron era sort of brings that magical atmosphere into classic rock music. Well written songs. Completely unique to any other band. David's charisma comes through in his vocals too. Really enjoyable to hear. Then the more ballad like songs bring tears to my eyes. It's a genuine feel. Very raw and rough round the edges but perfected to the max at the same time. If that's even possible.. Well it is with Heep! I love the Magician's Birthday and Demons & Wizards albums. Beautiful album art too by Roger Dean (one of my favourite surrealists) which seems to connect so well with the music itself. I love all Heep but there's something very special about these early albums. It's hard to explain how music makes me feel but I hope you get my drift with this one.
