Uriah Heep is my all-time favourite band. I'm aware I'm in the minority on this one, but there's something about their sound and their relentlessly positive attitude that just makes me happy. Edit: You mentioned the bass. The original bass on this was Gary Thain, a brilliant musician who was tragically electrocuted on stage. He survived, but never played again. For most of the 70s, Heep had three terrific singers in the band. Lead vocal David Byron, organist Ken Hensley, and drummer Lee Kerslake all had wonderful voices.

This is not the original album cut of JULY MORNING. And as you have noticed this tune is clearly inspired by CHILD IN TIME by Deep Purple, the voice is singing a very slow part while the organ goes in three times along, just like in Child in Time, then Byron tries to do the same screams getting high and higher. We called this "a very evident inspiration".

Not saying it's "wrong" but at least July Morning is also not the original version from the 70s, but I think a re-recording from 2009. Then the Line-Up would be Bernie Shaw - vocals Mick Box - guitar, Phil Lanzon - keyboards Trevor Bolder - bass Russell Gilbrook - drums Mick Box is the only one still active in Uriah Heep from the beginning. In the 70s they had some changes (some of them tragic) of bass players, and in the late 70s also vocalists. The main line-up of the early albums would be David Byron - vocals Mick Box - guitar Ken Hensley - keyboards Paul Newton - bass and changing drummers, before they found Lee Kerslake in 1972. That would in parts explain some different sound. Bernie Shaw is strong, but also not getting younger. The late David Byron would be their original voice, together with vocal harmonies of course, and Ken Hensley the orignial organ player. Also, on July Morning there is an additional Keyboard solo by Manfrad Mann, on a very early Synthesizer :D It may sound a bit cheesy today. But (if only for yourself) also listen to the studio version on the Look At Yourself album! (I think most of the time finding out which album a song was on first, and finding that version makes the most sense? If it isn't something special)

July Morning is a classic - What you listened to was not the original album version which is far superior and contains the famous whiplash guitar moment. Lead singer David Byron was definitely doing Ian Gillan vocals & screams - and if you listen to a track called "Come Away Melinda" you will be convinced that is Gillan. Lol - add a Hammond organ and - well you can see where their influences lay. Please listen to the original July Morning in your own time and see what I mean. I'm surprised noone else noticed you heard a different mix entirely.

Just scrolled through the comments to see if anyone mentions the different version of July Morning... :-) I'm not quite sure what version Kira listened to. It was good but the original is the best. This version was missing something. One of those things was the synthesizer solo at the end of the song. I've always liked that. The original July Morning featured an early use of a Moog synthesizer played by Manfred Mann. Only a few musicians owned one back in 1971. Ken Hensley started to play a synthesizer himself a couple of years later. He was a great keyboard player and wrote some fantastic songs. Many bands from the 1960s and the 1970s had a keyboardist. They mostly played the organ. Some of them started to play other keyboard instruments as well but the organ was a big part of the sound. I also want to mention that the "Deep Purple in Rock" album (their first "heavy" album with Ian Gillan) and the first Uriah Heep album came out at the same time in July 1970. Both of these bands have some similarities of course but still have a unique style of their own. They've written some of the most memorable songs in history. I liked your comment. Take care and enjoy the music.
