‘Bird Of Prey’ is the incredible heavy opener of this underrated second album. You’d really dig it.
The fans like their more fantasy-themed albums more, but I've always thought "Salisbury" was the band's magnum opus.
One of their best ballads and they end every concert today with it.
Early 70's after the turbulent 60's was so rich for reaching for peace. Sad we are still reaching.
This is off one of my favourite Heep albums. At least in Germany, this is their best-known song. Compared to the entire rest of the album, it's however almost simplistic and a bit pedestrian. That being said, it deserves its place among classic rock hits. Cultivated the chorus without words.
I love this song. It was often one of the songs playing in the background during D & D sessions with my friends back in the late 70's.
Ken Hensley's first solo album "Proud Words on a Dusty Shelf" (1973) may not be popular enough for a reaction channel, but if you enjoy "Lady in Black" then I highly recommend listening to "Proud Words on a Dusty Shelf" in your free time.
One of my favorite Uriah Heep songs.
Seeing this performed live is pure goosebumps. In germany everyone in a certain age range can sing this song if they like it or not. Even my dad who "hates this overplayed wimpy crap" was converted by seeing them live.
My favorite band, looking forward to seeing more heep from you :)
If not done already, you should listen to this album's title track, Salisbury. Their crowning achievement.
I love this song!!!
Check out the title track. It is Uriah Heep at their most PROG!
hi again, JP. if you want to kick it up some, try "Look at Yourself" from the same titled album. just be sure to strap in to your seat!
Great album; has a lot of variety within it.
The Park is one track that inexplicably fascinates me. The strange falsetto-type vocals, incredible stop-start timing, and the sound effects (such as a cat’s meow) all add up to something that’s greater than the sum.
Check it out, Justin 😊
Back in the day I was in a terrible garage band. We tried to do this song and I kept running out of breath before the verses end. It's not easy to sing!
When TV's Top of the Pops experimented a couple of times with Yes and also Uriah Heep's Salisbury Album tracks playing the main track Salisbury all the way through. I was down the Rcord shop the following day. I love 'that' the unique album sounds from the 1968 to early '70's. Bought Uriah Heeps Salisbury first then Very 'Eavy' Very 'Umble' after then the following albums.
I think your thinking of the Old Grey Whistle Test rather than TOTP.
@@keithhider2170 Nope it was TOTP experimented with album tracks which surprised me at the time.
Great Ken Hensley vocals!
Thanks for doing this one JP,. It's one of my favourite Heep tracks and i believe it's still a big crowd pleaser at their concerts today.
I'm off to see Uriah Heep again in a few weeks. It'll be odd to see them with their new line up.
I hope you enjoy the show! Report back with your thoughts :D
@@JustJP I will, I'm sure. It's Judas Preist, Saxon and Uriah Heep. It'll take me back to when I was 16.
I used to busk this, but I found that after a few repeats, I couldn't remember the order of the damn lyrics lol. You'd be better off finishing the rest of The Magician's Birthday tbh.
2 chords (e, D) are enough. If there has ever been a song to be called an earworm it is this one. Though I like this song I have to admit that it is the one I like least on the album. Because it is a great album , a maeander between heavy and soft and simple and complex and bombastic and whatever.
Baa, baa, Black Heep. Have you any women. Yes sir, yes sir, in women I am swimmin'. One for the band. One for every guy at hand. One for the little boy, that lives down the lane. Many thanks for Uriah, even though I'm insane. "Birds Of Prey" would be the logical next choice. Peace & Love.
Like finding a small onion ring in your French fries 🍟 😋
"Ole Audiophile to JustJP: Superb selection! My best audiophile pal & I both enjoyed their studio selections as about much as humanly possible as an odd-matched pair of audiophiles could. I was introduced to this group via Demons & Wizards, the very next album. My pal ran a few years ahead of my experience so he introduced me to their earlier library/all of it. Neither of us could understand their penchant for embarrassing themselves when performing live, I tried three times myself. It was sorta weird that it all seemed to come unglued just after their biggest radio hit 'Stealin' lasted what seemed forever on the radio. They simply vanished from view for most of the commercial market. Thanx. (note: Two of this band went on to establish Ozzy Osbourne as a solo musician, for that the entire planet should thank them even if Ozzy's wife Sharon did sue them. Now Ken Hensley on the other hand left Great Britain for the Eastern U.S. to join a southern rock band called Blackfoot for a couple albums.)
I wonder if Ozzy could have made it without Bob, Lee, and Randy Rhodes. 🤔 I’m thinking maybe not! Look at what happened when he tried to release the earlier albums with Bob and Lee’s playing replaced.
I'd have to largely agree. Has anyone heard the live DVD 'Live & Loud' lately? Re-edited, it's basically worthless. Glad I still own the original DVD with no edits. Thanx for comment.@@jaybird4093
"Demons & Wizards" wasn't the very next album to Salisbury; "Look at Yourself" was.
Quite correct, sorry. Mis-remembered it on Look At Yourself, my bad. I'm staring down the barrel of 69 in a few weeks, I'm thrilled to hit it near the same ballpark at this point. @@lashers
@@davidlane1169 No problem. I know exactly how you feel, though I'm a spring chicken compared to you being fully five months before my 69th birthday😄
Dude you MUST listen to the songs Gypsy, Bird of Prey, Dreammare, High Priestess, and most of the Look at Yourself album, .... actually every album up until Return to Fantasy is pretty damn great....after that.... patchy then plunging into the dire spectrum of things by the late 70's..... post Byron and Thain.
Some of those tracks are on their first album. Possibly the worst debut i've heard. As one critic espoused at the time 'From the first note, you know you don't want to hear any more. Sure they improved, but that first album, cover included. What a nightmare!
@@Owlstretchingtime78 A word of advice: never listen to music critics!
Try their earlier albums all music is good say no more ☮️🇦🇺🇺🇸
You should check out their first album
Very eavy Very umble
Awful album. The worst debut i've ever heard!
@@Owlstretchingtime78 I disagree. IMHO, they never managed to achieve anything quite like it ever again (while putting out a lot of great albums). Lady in Black is an OK song - with lyrics I like - but is nothing much in comparison to the 'Eavy 'Umble songs.
(But then I love *Firefly* so maybe my opinion doesn't count. :-) )
@@Owlstretchingtime78 Speak for yourself! Nirvana's entire discography alone is far worse than Uriah Heep's debut album!😉
@a.k.1740 Of course it is!
The album contains Gipsy and Melinda. What can be bad about it?
Never in a million years would I have suggested this track, I know every Uriah Heep song that was ever made and this one is the one no true UH Fan who is in his right mind, would want to hear on this channel. Sure, the song is not bad, given that is has onyl two chords and a refrain with no lyrics, but there are way more better Heep songs than this one. When this song is played live on stage, the true fans retreat to the background and the other, who have waited just for Lady in Black and were disappointed from the rest of the show come forward to sing along. Now do me a favour to forget about this and play some more stuff from Family, or, if it has to be a Heep song, go for any other song from this band.
How wonderful that there are still people who can decide who is a true fan and who is not.
Track was rereleased as a single in 1978; think it was a small hit.
I was listening to this song back in 1971
I do like Heep but this is a bit of a throwaway track that works as an semi-acoustic singalong but is really only a mouth rinse between the richer courses on the album. Even the normally spicy mellotron doesn't add much taste.
I think this track speaks to the diversity of this band.
Nice track, but too repetitive for what it contains and not one of my favourites from Uriah Heep! Having said that, on the same album, I don't particularly like 'Bird of Prey' either, because of David Byron's overly high paroxysmal vocals.
Well this was boring... A rather pedestrian, trudging, folk rock number were next to nothing happened. Don't think there was even a break of any sorts. Cos in the vain of folk, the tune often doesn't matter, and it's all about the tale. And though the vocal was ok, I'm hoping to be wowed by the music, and didn't really care about what he was singing. And so tune-wise, it was disappointment all the way. Bit of a yawnfest for me I'm afraid.
Seems like it's just you and i. Becoming rather regular just recently. Oh and pay no attention to my comments concerning their diabolical debut. What do i know?
@@Owlstretchingtime78 Aye, we're quite the channel stalwarts :) Re your 'dodgy debut' comment, I can't see it. Did you pull it?
@jfergs.3302 No it's still there under a comment from StephenDennis.
@@jfergs.3302It's still there under the comment from ZalMoxis.
It's still there, under the comment from a Zalmoxis!
