Uriah Heep - Classic Line-Up Reunites For One Show


For one night only, Uriah Heep reunites with core members of the classic 1970s line-up, welcoming both Ken Hensley and Lee Kerslake to the Moscow Crocus' iconic stage, to perform the band's classic hits in a 2 hour set. Uriah Heep will be joined on stage on October 15th by Ken Hensley (Hammond, vocals, slide guitar) and Lee Kerslake (drums, vocals). Ken parted from Uriah Heep in 1980 to continue his song writing and solo career. Lee stayed with Uriah Heep until 2007.

Originally founded by guitarist Mick Box in 1969, Uriah Heep is one of the pivotal classic acts that helped define the rock sound and an era. Part of the fabled 'Big Four' alongside Zeppelin, Sabbath and Purple, the Heep story still has a long way to go. With classic songs like "July Morning", "Lady In Black", "Gypsy", "Easy Livin'' and "Stealin'' full of ambition, sophisticated writing, memorable tunes and, of course, the vocals - the 5 part harmonies were a clear influence on the operatics of Queen. Uriah Heep was the first Western rock band to perform in Russia, the band has headlined at stadiums worldwide.

Saying classic line-up is wrong I dare say, poor David Byron died mid 80s. Classic line up would be Byron/Box/Thain/Hensley/Kerslake. Gary Thain died in 1975 if I remember right. He was replaced by John Wetton for a while.

Seems like a strange location to do a one time gig!
