Uriah Heep - Gypsy - 1970

[Varatheraj]

with such an iconic album like this one, it was really saddening that their path swerved so much as they went on

Bought this album then went to see them somewhere in Edinburgh in the early 70's. Very good band and very enjoyable concert (I think ). Well it was the 70's.

Was only seventeen
I fell in love with a gypsy queen
She told me "hold on"
Her father was the leading man
Said "you're not welcome on our land"
And then as a foe, he told me to go

He took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her "leave me"
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl
She means all the world

Ah

Oh, I want my gypsy queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover
One day I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man
That he'll understand

Ah
Ah

How musicians can form into this powerhouse is freaking a mm aging!!!

[Varatheraj]

and with this amazing album we really believed they were going to be the next great after led zeppelin

Rolling Stone magazine's Melissa Mills began her review by saying, "If this group makes it I'll have to commit suicide. From the first note you know you don't want to hear any more." The band made it and hopefully she fullfilled her promise.

No, not quite metal. Just bluesy rock very similar to deep purple.
