Very cool interview. Mick is a great musician. Always loved the typical vocal screams in Uriah Heep and Deep Purple (and later Judas Priest) which became a main influence on our songs \m/
It’s a bit scary if you look at the frontside of the Sweet Freedom album, every member has passed in that exact order… Only Mick is left and he’s the lat one, at the right.
MICK BOX IS ONE OF THE BEST GUITARIST OF ALL TIME URIAH HEEP NEVER STOP ROCKING THANK YOU MICK UUU HAVE BEN WITH U,H FROM DAY 111 KEPT IT UP MICK ROCK ON SAW THE OLD BAND LIVE IN 1973 &&& 1975 R,I,P ALL THE GUYS THAT ROCK WITH UUUUUU
he MORE than holds his own here. & elsewhere. they're not one of my top 10 fave bands but mick is thoughtful, humble, philosophical & intelligent. so, after seeing this, i'm gonna go deeper into Uriah Heep than i've gone before & listen for more & keep a VERY mind. because of this excellent & thoughtful interview.
I was a UH fan until Byron left. I tried the first albums with Lawton and they weren't bad but something was missing. Then I saw them on German television where fat middle aged ladies with thick glasses where dancing on their music. Commercially that may be oke but it hadn't anything to do with my idea of rock&roll. I saw them a few years ago in small theater here in the Netherlands and they preformed as if it was their last gig ever. Very good!
John in fact said he loved David as a friend, kept in touch and went to his funeral. It was Ken who couldn't co-exist with David. But really, management never let these guys slow down, when in fact they should have taken a sabbatical after Wonderworld and tried to book David and Gary into rehab. Who knows?One of the great "what if's" in rock and roll.
Mick get rid of BERNIE SHAW. HE CAN'T SING! RE-unite with Ken Hensley! Bernie Shaw does one thing really well. He butchers, David Byron "era" songs. After "Fred" David Byron in #2 all time of rock vocalist(historically)
Uriah Heep is living the dream and you're living in the past and missing out big time. Bernie Shaw is great. I don't think you have given him a chance because of that living into the past thing.
Bernie Shaw is a amazing vocalist. Just seen them and was blown away by how hard these old guys rock! Bernie at 61 still has a incredibly powerful voice.
Jeffrey Dwyer I guess Sanctuary and BMG records are living in the past "thing". The first seven albums by Uriah Heep out sold all their other albums combined.They are re-issuing the whole catalogue. Bernie Shaw should be arrested! Guilty of musical butchery, in his unsuccessful attempts to sing Byron songs. Ask Mick Box why they do all those songs from the past "thing". Because they're the best songs the band has ever composed. With possibly the greatest rock singer of all time. Second to Freddy Mercury! Bernie Shaw SUCKS!!!!! When I watched the live at ko ko bluray. I felt like throwing up when he tried to sing "sunrise" from Magician's Birthday or "July Morning" from Look at yourself. Amongst other Byron gems. Rumor has it if Bernie Shaw ever attempts to sing "come away melinda" He would get the death penalty for musical blasphemy!
Stephens Dygert You're an official asshat with that comment about Bernie Shaw! If you don't like him, that's fine. It doesn't mean he SUCKS.I like him. David Byron drank himself to death. That rots but at least Musk and the guys still Rock'n'Roll for us. With all the illegal downloading that a big surprise. Where's you data for that boast by the way? Why should I believe some troll? I think "fans" like you suck! It's a different world for music now. It's all about touring and merchandise. Why do musicians always get RIPPED OFF? First managers and record companies now their fucking fans!!
Jeffrey Dwyer what are you talking about. Freddy Mercury died of Aides. Byron died of alcohol related issues, thats unfortunate. You you have no credibility when you start name calling. What is it with people like yourself. You people love to throw the word "troll" around, just because you disagree with someone elses opion. Little Advice, "Look at Yourself" like the song says.

What a great interview!....Top man Mick Box. The interviewer made some great points as well.
Thank you for evaluating my journalist preparedness and deep delving into Heep's legacy

Mick is a jolly good fellow.
Must’ve been the glue that held the band together, for sure,
Great interview !! always been a fan of Uriah Heep and Mick Box in all the configurations of the band, but the Original lineup was best !

The whole bad such a huge band in the day a deep purple equivalent but today media hardly plays them...in concert their energy was awesome
love the questions the interviewer asks!! so unique
The Man!
Mick is great!
To the uploader, that banging on the drum really spoilt this interview.
we were given just several minutes before the concert
Обожаю!
Such a friendly man Mick Box is
Yoda agrees.
Really enjoyed Mick’s prospective.
A lovely man.
Would have been better without all that background stuff going on. Otherwise great interview.
Mike Box great !
Did they finish building the shed?
Wish that guy would stop hammering. Re-do this without that!
This interview needs more cowbell to go with that phat drum beat.
Thats hilarious...i agree..
Ok...after reading the comments...i have to ask...wtf with the drum..i yi yi
👍👍👍👍
Cut the fuckin noise!!!
So now I know why they named their 2nd album ! 😂
I was a UH fan until Byron left. I tried the first albums with Lawton and they weren't bad but something was missing.

Need more hammers in the background.
hahaha
No shit....hahaha
Thought that was the drummer doing a fill ! 🤣
JoHN Wetton was David's good mate, he left UH because they fired David Byron, how come these rumours are brought
?
John in fact said he loved David as a friend, kept in touch and went to his funeral. It was Ken who couldn't co-exist with David. But really, management never let these guys slow down, when in fact they should have taken a sabbatical after Wonderworld and tried to book David and Gary into rehab. Who knows?One of the great "what if's" in rock and roll.
Yes, actually he was the only band member who showed up there.
My I tunes are disposable Mick
Mick Box is to heavy metal as Jerry Garcia is to psychedelic rock.
бокс - великий МАСТЕР...нынче гламурный старичок...выглядит гораздо лучше своего коллеги Ли Кёрслейка
Noisy Russ behind hahaha)
That bass drum in background is so annoying.
More COWBELL!
Shut up Russell 😂😂😂
