In their early years, Uriah Heep was certainly a great live band. Their earliest "live" album; however, was not so well-produced. The version here of Lady in Black is as good as was ever done PERIOD. It should be noted that the only original member here was Mick Box (guitarist). There are always very professional musicians associated with U.H., so that the line-up changes, though noticeable, are without fault for the most part. I just flat love their songs, even today.
@mmvanduijn . Kerslake didn't join Uriah Heep until after their third album had been released (10/71 - Look at Yourself). He replaced Ian Clarke. When Gary Thain joined as bassist in the same general time-frame, Uriah Heep became a truly "improved" band. Their next album was "Demons and Wizards", followed shortly by "The Magician's Birthday" (maybe their best studio album). Their first live effort, "Uriah Heep Live", which I didn't think showed them at their best, was their sixth.
I'm not Catholic but I still can't help seeing this as an appearance of the Virgin Mary to a troubled soul. What other interpretations are there? i'd be interested in others.
Being an old fart I should know this, but, when and where was this? I just saw these guys at summerfest2010 in Milwaukee under a full moon. That was the tenth time I've seen them and it was as good as the first. (back in the 70's)
I feel honored to have been able to see them live here, in my hometown in Hungary. Thanks guys for coming to Fezen in Székesfehérvár, and bringing us the best of music!
This is a very good song :) If you like this song then search for " Iris/Uriah Heep - Lady in Black " . It's a remake of this song they made in collaboration with the romanian rock band "Iris".
Time means nothing to me, and though we are apart now, we Shell be together when all is said and done, never to be torn apart again. I LOVE U Babe! ~BT/AS~ *tantric kisses*
Ich habe Uriah Heep 1974 Live mit David Byron und Gary Thain erlebt. Die damalige Besetzung konnte nie mehr getoppt werden. Das war aber bei vielen anderen Bands auch der Fall und damit muss man sich halt abfinden. Diese Version von Lady In Black kann man daher aber auch noch akzeptieren.
I've only seen the original line up with David Byron, but they were up there amongst the best live bands ever.
I'd include Camel, Rush, Gryphon, Jethro Tull, Irish Celtic rockers Horslips, Scots Celtic rockers Runrig and Wishbone Ash as being others in contention for the title.
But Heep have been going 40 years, which says a lot.
well i can only comment on bands ive seen,so id say the red hot chilli peppers as they were amazing and didnt stand still for 2 hours and patti smith came on and did 2 songs with them,and i saw clapton at the albert hall in 06,musically was fantastic but as a show might as well have listened to a cd
Naja, Thin Lizzy ist toll, aber zB. Rammstein, das ist ein Erlebnis. War bei einem Konzert und hab mich gefühlt wie in einem Kino mit einem Weltuntergangsfilm xD
Das war ne Show, einfach geil und natürlich hat sich alles was sie gespielt haben, einfach nur toll angehört ^^
...da gebe ich dir Recht, ich habe sie voriges Jahr Live im Vorprogramm von Thin Lizzy gesehen, Fazit: Thin Lizzy...GRANDIOS! Uriah Heep...Lahm und Langweilig :-))
das ist irgendein Möchtegernsänger, der Frontmann hatte nie Blonde Haare, außerdem klingt seine Stimme nicht wie die im Originalsong oder den neuen Konzerten!
Esse cara canta muito meu!! A banda é muito boa. Cadê alguma das atuais prá fazer algo próximo disso tudo. Magnífico. É um dos meus prediletos. SENSACIONAL!!!
Bernie Shaw has an amazing voice but i just prefer the original with Ken Hensley singing. maybe i love it too much to listen to it from another voice.
These guys are Fantastic and GREAT to their fans.. I was one invited up on stage to sing Lady In Black with them in 2002 in Trenton, New Jersey. I am on the DVD singing and being interviewed by The Classic Rock Productions girl and will never forget the moment , It will live with me forever,,,,,
I saw uriah heep at least 10 times, they are still fantastic, the room/ theatre didnt buzz, it fooking exploded. we all went home feeling great. WHO needs drugs to feel good ? just plain ole music and a few beers, the others that are good by the way are groundhogs, and rory gallagher. i seed them too.
Holy shit, can someone put up the original? I know there is one arround here but its piss hard to find cause of all the covers and new versions.. bleh -_-
And the original is removed for some reason, so thats why this is the only version you can find here. Try metacafe, i found the true first version there some weeks ago :P.
And for the record, Uriah Heep has gone thrue lots of changes during the years, so its not the original setup, and thus, the sound and feel is changed.
Uriah heep, judas priest and old rock bands like rainbow are not so famous. But who listens to their music, it sure its for the music. Awesome live version !!
