To this day I've never got through Conquest or Equator all the way through, and at this point I have no need to go back and listen to either one ever again. DaveS

positive side, I enjoyed Trevor's contributions and his bass is brought to
the front in the mix. Chris Slade's drumming is also very consistent and
serves the songs. The songs however were not terribly remarkable to my ears
and the singer was also not my cup of tea. Truth be told, I would not know
it was UH except for some of the block harmonies.

would go back to for enjoyment. I'm now looking forward to discovering more
of the Heep I don't know. Where to next???
