[Heeplist] 1st and 2nd Heep Albums

[Don Malecic]

Great story. Norbert,  being from Germany can you give us some idea on
how big of an influence Lady in Black or, Heep in general was or, still is
in Germany?
I know I've read articles about it but, nice to hear actual stories from a
fan and citizen living there.

I heard rumors that song could be your National Anthem over there ?
Cheers,
Don
