5CD - UK Import

Following hot on the heels of Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath, British hard rock legends Uriah Heep released their debut album in June 1970. Featuring David Byron on lead vocals, Mick Box on lead guitar and Ken Hensley on keyboards, ‘Very ‘Eavy Very ‘Umble’ is quite rightly regarded as a major influence on the development of hard rock and heavy metal. 1970 was the centenary of Charles Dickens’ death, and having originally been called Spice, they switched to the more Dickensian Uriah Heep when Hensley joined their ranks after spells in The Gods and Toe Fat before recording their debut.

Like their hard rocking contemporaries of the 1970s, it was live on stage where Uriah Heep truly shone, and no self-respecting rock or metal band of the era could be without a classic double live album, and ‘Uriah Heep Live’ (CD1) is no exception. Recorded at Birmingham Town Hall in January 1973, and released three months later, it delivered their third gold record in a row in the States, it remains a testament to the classic line-up of Box/Hensley/Byron/Kerslake/Thain.

Back in the days when bands were expected to be prolific enough to release two new albums a year, Uriah Heep released their sixth studio album ‘Sweet Freedom’ (CD3) in 1973, by which time they had been joined by drummer Lee Kerslake (Ozzy Osbourne) and bassist Gary Thain, which many see as the most enduring line-up of the band. The album saw Ken Hensley develop as a songwriter, with the music a blend of proto heavy metal and progressive rock, consolidating their growing popularity at home as well as the all important US market. ‘Sweet Freedom’ was followed by ‘Wonderworld' (CD4) in June 1974, with the hard rock attack of Mick Box’s guitar, alloyed to Ken Hensley’s keyboards and David Byron’s operatic vocal approach making the band a formative influence on bands such as Queen. With a significant dent in the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, ‘Wonderworld’ featured the single ‘Something Or Nothing’, but was the last studio album to feature bass guitarist Gary Thain.

It was the classic Box/Hensley/Byron/Kerslake/Thain line-up that would record ‘Live at Shepperton ’74' (CD5) the same year. Issued in bootleg style artwork, the album wasn’t given an official release until 1986, and captures the band in a more intimate setting in front of a much smaller, invited audience. CD2 was originally released as part of a deluxe version of ‘Live 1973’ and features the band in 1974 with a US Radio show session, and with film mixes from the Shepperton show and on an extended ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Medley’.

Uriah Heep continued to tour and release new albums until the present day. In 2025 they launched their farewell tour, celebrating 55 years of music. The package includes liner notes based on new interviews with founder member, Mick Box.

Great shirt! The material is very comfortable on my skin. It is a little tight in the neck but pulling on it ever so slightly fixed it for me, other than that it fits perfectly!

Great price; some fitting notes
Size: Medium, Color: Washed Denim, Number of Items: 2
The shirt looks good, good quality, and the price is pretty much unbeatable. Some notes of fit: compared to the Eddie Bauer men's medium legend wash (my standard), this one has a smaller neck opening and is a bit tighter around the chest. Also, the short sleeves are shorter than Bauer's. These aren't really criticisms, but they may work better or worse depending on the person wearing them.

Comfortable, Colorful, Soft, Affordable.
Size: Large, Color: Ice Blue, Number of Items: 1
These T Shirts are as good as it gets especially at the price point. All cotton, very soft, very colorful. Wash well. If you don’t want them to shrink, I suggest air drying them. I had an XL one for years and pretty much ignored it. Found it again and it’s amazing to wear to bed or around the house. At These prices if you need or want a T shirt, this is the one to get.

The Perfect Tee Shirt
Size: X-Large, Color: White, Number of Items: 2
I bought one of these shirts to see if they’re as good as the customer reviews suggest. They most certainly are! They have a nice weight, a great fitting collar, and the shirts have a generous length so they stay tucked in. The sleeves are longer than normal tee shirts, which I really appreciate. These shirts are such high quality, and such an amazing bargain, that I bought four more!

This tee shirt has no side seams.
Size: X-Large, Color: True Navy, Number of Items: 1
This 100% cotton tee shirt is a nice weight & true color, sits close to neck. However, I planned to use this for my yoga class & put in some side slits for a better fit & there are none! Also, nothing in the description says what gender it is for, although the photo shows a guy. There was no contact info to call about this question. For some reason this never came up in my search for a cotton tee shirt & the only way I came across it was to google for a comparison for Life is Good shirts which are pricey. I won't be able to use it for yoga class.
