[Heeplist] Interview

Fri Jul 29 09:49:56 EDT 2016

Guys,
This brings me back to my reasoning why Heep isn't " true to themselves "
or, Heep not changing their style.
It goes back to one single thing and that was Kens Moog synthesizer and
other synth sounds . That sound just didn't work anymore .The sound was a
killer for the band,
It unfortunately polarized the band to explore different styles, which led
to some soul searching .
Music like Bruce's will always work because it always had that American
folky feel, which fits in even today , same with Petty, Bob seger, Joe
Walsh, Eagles, Neil Young, many more..,
I like the direction of the band with "Outsider" I would like to see it
tinged a bit with more aucoustic guitars and piano.
Don
