Gary Thain is New Zealand 🇳🇿 legend ❤
65 - 75 was the golden era of hard rock when they made real music .... uriah heep humble pie deep purple some of the greatest bands from that era gary thain one of my favorite base players in rock music rip gary thain who sadly joined the 27 club
Gary and Uriah Heep are true rock legends. So highly underrated.
Una leyenda ese sonido hermoso y poderoso del gran maestro Gary Thain. Que pena que los vicios lo mataron!!
Pt 2 is most excellent
The music playing over the spoken words is really fucking annoying
cant please everyone
Gary Thain, what a unique style and sound. Nobody sounds like him. Rest in Peace Gary!
Why wasn't Gary buried in New Zealand ?
he was cremated in London and his ashes spread in a rose garden, his wife Maureen would have organized that
@@davechapman7735 I just assumed he would be buried in New Zealand because that's where he was from.
Gary's had 3 brothers and one had died and one was living over seas ,that left one who was the youngest and never knew Gary as we had left NZ when he was a baby ,his Dad had died and that only left his Mum, Rita who was getting on in years and hadn't seen him since about early 70's when Heep came to Auckland so with all that in mind it was probably a better option for his wife who he had separated from to take care of his parting in London , that's the only scenario I can think of but thanks for your caring . post @@SuperAnimelover100
@@davechapman7735 Now that all makes sense to me. Thank you for replying back. :)
I'm learning Blind Eye on my bass right now . Man what a bass player he was , definitely among the greats of his time.
What a wonderful musical mind. He was truly one of the most beautifully gifted and sadly underrated player of all time. His choice of notes was breathtaking. His manipulation of melodies was unsurpassed. His early death...heartbreaking. LONG LIVE THE HEEP.
Gary's playing is unreal. He's the god of bass. 🥝💚🖤
thanks for your comment, I just received from a friend and pic of a T shirt with a pic of Gary and a caption that says, "I DONT NEED THERAPY I JUST NEED TO LISTEN TO GARY THAIN," It was on Facebook, you may be able to see it if you search, your comment, appreciated, best wishes Dave Chapman NZ
@@davechapman7735 hi! Oh wow, you're one of the first people that played in a band with Gary. I've read your blog and others about your and Gary's music. Hoping to eventually do some interviews with people who worked with Gary. That's pretty cool, Gary's story and music saved my life so he is my therapy. 🥰 Is it on the Gary Thain Fan Club page on Facebook? 🥝💚🖤
hi thanks for your reply .here is a NZ band site, if you click my name Dave Chapman from the name directory you will see, some my NZ history and at the bottom of the page you can see Gary's name and his NZ history and pics. our other two Me and the Other's members there as well Paul Muggleston and Pete Dawkins you can see more. www.rockhappenz.com . best wishes Dave @@fleetwoodmacncheese4159
@@davechapman7735thank you! I appreciate it, this is a great site. I found a Me and the Others vinyl I've had my eye on. I've wanted to get in touch with you to discuss Gary more for awhile. I'm planning on writing about him and have been researching him religiously for about 4 years. I have no idea what I'm doing in terms of publishing writing but I'm very very passionate about Gary's work and history. I want more people to know the truth about him and to hear his music. 🥝💚🖤
I've always loved Uriah Heep influenced so many other great musicians I'm a kiwi myself and so many kiwis dont know who was the most succesful kiwi bass player of all time-good quiz question. R.I.P Gary Thain
The opening bass line on Stealin is iconic, you know the song as s soon as it starts, even if you haven't heard it in years
Greatest bass player in history
thanks for your comment, its quite amazing that Gary has been gone for so many years but his legend and talent lives on. cheers from NZ
I didn't know Thain was a Kiwi.... aside from Chris Squire I loved his playing..... Thain was brilliant.
he was from Christian st Christchurch.
New Zealand's greatest export .. The great Gary Thain
He is my favorite bass player!thank you.
I was listening to UH in the early seventies..by then I had already picked up the Bass, but as I listened to more of Gary's playing and those riffs it gave me inspiration, I was driven by his bass work, I still listen to UH and I still play today..
I’m way too young to experience the 60s and 70s, but there’s a certain vibe or mystique from that era. I love the music from small garage rock like bands to the big powerhouses such as Heep or Deep Purple. There’s a video of Gary’s bass solo during a live show where he goes into a melodic rendition of a classic piece, I can’t remember which, and it just sounds so powerful. God knows what he would’ve gone on to do… RIP Gary, David, Ken, and Lee. Edit: Bach’s little Fugue in a G minor was the piece that Thain performed, he was turning classical music into melodic rock bass playing haha ruclips.net/video/ey30IQBKaFM/видео.htmlsi=KcGGL9-6H8ZdyqsI
❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you very much for this😊
a pleasure, glad you enjoyed it
John Glascock from Jethro Tull was a great bassist
... too.
Gary Thain had the most Tasteful and Biggest Sound of any bassist in history. I'm as amazed listening to his unique style today as I was when he first caught my ear back in 1972.
Saw them in 73. Im soooo lucky
🖤‼️‼️‼️
I remember him in the 1960s before he left NZ Played in a band Called The Strangers with Brother Arthur at the Caledonian Hall in Kilmore St Christchurch NZ
great days, I was there too dancing ! at the Cally ,we may have rubbed shoulders? thanks for you comment. cheers Dave
Arthur has been living in Perth for many years.
Mick Box blames the management for ignoring Gary when he was recovering from his injuries. But he could also take responsibility himself. After all, your fellow band members are the ones who are supposed to support you and wait til you're ready to get back on the road. But Mick Box and the others obviously didn't have the patience to wait and moved on with a different bass player, leaving Gary behind on his own, knowing very well he was addicted to heroin. This led to his death in 1975, he was only 27. That's quite a weight to carry, for the rest of your life.I stopped being a fan of UH after Gary's death. It just gave me a bad feeling.
I was a fan of Uriah Heep from a young age but I remember years later re listening to their music that I realized what a great bass player Gary Thain was, absolutely one of the best ever!
Exactly, the same experience. As I am getting older I realize how good bass player Gary was
Back in those days Uriah Heep was putting out a new album every 6 months.
I was at the concert in Dallas when Gary was shocked, and went to the floor. His band mates carried his stiff body off the stage. The concert was over, as expected. Sad day... RIP.
Trevor Bolder is as good and even actually better than Gary Thain, Mitch Box agreed with me at the coach house in 2019…
everyone has opinions and I respect that
The greatest photo of Gary ever is in the program photos in the live album.
I am a big fan one of my favourite bands I saw them 3 times live but Not with Gary one of the kind bass player R I P Gary god bless
Tremendous Player
Dear sweet heart Gary,i am so deeply sorry
Saw heep 3 times with Thain Free trade hall Manchester brilliant every time
Hi Dave Very nice cover. I love this tune. Cheers - Christian
it was your version that inspired me to do it Christian. all your covers are perfect. cheers for your comments. regards Dave
😳😲
What version of July Morning was that? Sounds a bit different
sorry ? the tracks were added by the guy that did the interview
@@davechapman7735 never mind! Haha found it anyway :)
Yes !!! One of bass player All time's, powerful and clean sound !!!
Wow just reading some of these comments I’m wondering how many bass players out there took up bass because of Gary’s bass riff in Sweet Loraine
Gary I saw you many times and You kicked ass and your my favorite Bass Man with the HEEP thank You for your playing and singing 💥⚡️🎸🎤🙏🙏🙏👍
Thanks Dave,you guys All worked ya butts off!
yep we sure did and that was long time ago, but it was worth it as the memories just keep coming. especially from people like you taking time to watch the clips and commenting, very much appreciated, very best wishes to you and everyone who has watched.. cheers Dave C.. NZ
The management is guilty!
Rip 🙏 Harry Thain, Uriah Heap!!!❤️
One of my favourite bands
When I was a young drummer/guitarist learning, gigging and growing up here in Seattle in the mid-late seventies, I was not only aware of Uriah Heep; but Gary Thain in particular. Gary Thain, Bob Daisley, John Paul Jones, John Deacon, John Entwistle, Tom Hamilton, Rob Grange, Dusty Hill, Joe Bouchard, Geezer Butler, Ian Hill, Paul McCartney, Kenny Aaronson, etc., so many great bassists. Gary Thain was nuanced and unique unto himself. RIP and Bless His Heart.
thanks for your comments regards Dave C
Now I can listen to "You Say You're Together Now," for ... Over and over and over. As a recovering opiate/heroin addict it truly helps guide me to some Cognitive Behavioral Skills or Relapse Prevention Skills... I use that song as a personal recovery tool daily.
