URIAH HEEP, NOT HEED!

As the '80s proceed, modern music becomes an increasingly mediamotivated hoopla where youth and speed are all-conquering, the concept of having “paid your dues” with any degree of longevity isn’t even sneered at, it’s just not even in the plan.

As the '80s proceed, modern music becomes an increasingly mediamotivated hoopla where youth and speed are all-conquering, the concept of having “paid your dues” with any degree of longevity isn’t even sneered at, it’s just not even in the plan. Unless, of course, your music is rock—where a degree of experience and a collection of seminal albums are still worth holding your head up for, as the video revolution zaps by on the other side of the tracks. That said, British band Uriah Heep are right in the premier league when it comes to longevity, with a track record the envy of the young upstarts they’ve helped to influence along the way.
