Ages old 1970 FIRST PRINTING in striking gatefold cover ... the very first and probable best URIAH HEEP album with completely different cover to the UK issue and different track listing as well!

Includes also the scarce original printed inner sleeve

The mighty HEEP first Lp has ´eavy moments, gentle moments and harsh blues and lots of doomy atmospherics. Great variation of different kind of tracks. The ultimate HEAVY classic with the nifty prog-rock intro and introducing the patented Heep banshee harmonies complete with wild breakout organ solo, wailing slide guitar and moody atmospherics.

(A-1) Awesome dark & doomy cruncher "Gypsy" starts the album at 6:34

(A-2) Walking in your Shadow: Cool heavy riff, great guitar tone. An underated classic

(A-3) Come away Melinda: Leaning a bit towards the errie side, still a nice ballad.

(A-4) Bird Of Prey - hard'n'heavy dark blues cool heaviness (superior non U.K. LP track!)

(B-1) Dreammare - An excellent heavy rock stomper featuring a great guitar solo. Tops!

(B-2) Real Turned On - Another hard riff based heavy featuring lots of juicy slide guitar

B-3) I'll keep on Trying - Good one with a nice meaty emotive guitar solo.

B-4) Wake up (Set your sights) Hard Heep classic ripper...not a bad way to spend 6:22

CONDITION: The cover: The cool gatefold is solid, rated near M- with no seam splits, no bends, no writing anywhere ~ looks like and IS a great addition to the music library collection of early 70's heavy rock and/or prog or both!

The vinyl: is glossy all over, very clean, rated: M- expect to play tremendous ! Full wide range frequencies come rootin' 'round your sound-room! Clean Mercury labels too...

A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTION !
