[Heeplist] Bernie Shaw 30 years in Heep

[Scott Manion]

And to many he still seems like "the new guy!"

Congrats to both Bernie!  The core of Box/Shaw/Lanzon has been one of the
most stable and least tumultuous of any Heep lineup in their history and
rivals any rock band out there.

Seems unbelievable that Russell has been with the band for 10 years...longer
than Byron and almost as long as Hensley!

On another note, great review of the Salisbury re-issue in the December
Classic Rock Magazine!  I really hope the magazine can find a way out of
receivership and survive.  It's my favorite rock magazine. 

Hoping for a new release in 2017!  Anyone have some intel on their work on a
new disc???

I just realised that Bernie Shaw has now been the vocalist of Uriah Heep
almost exactly 30 years. You often see it mentioned that he joined Heep in
1086 but that's not correct. He was at the time in Stratus who played their
farewell concert at The Marquee in London on New Years's Eve. Mick went to
see the gig and afterwards asked if he'd be interested jo join the band.
March 10th in Bochum, Germany he sang his first live show with Heep.

Also soon Russell Gilbrook has been in the band for 10 years. The first gig
for Russell in Heep was in Finland in Vuokatti 14th April 2007, I was there.
I can't believe it was 10 years ago.
