"EASY LIVIN " is a Great song by Uriah Heep.

[@waynehackney5812]

Yes it is.

[@mikemitton6447]

Love Easy Living!

[@cheredoremi1922]

And don’t forget JULY MORNING; my favorite Uriah Heep song..

[@antonioeasypiano]

Totally agree!!!

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

ALWAYS here for Heep. First band I ever saw live, 1976. "Rain" is a stunning song, beautiful. Ma n Pa took me and my brother. We loved them.

[@pavintageautoparts6221]

Ken was a masterful storyteller. RIP

[@markbrock4427]

From that line up Ken Hensley, John Lawton, Trevor Bolder, Lee Kerslake are all no longer with us....only Mick Box left☹️

[@andyfletcher3561]

"July Morning", "Sweet Loraine", "Traveler In Time", "Easy Lining", or ANYTHING from 72-73. Their song imagery for me is even more Tolkeinesque than Zeppelin. "The Magician's Birthday"...On and on with them...

[@jeanstrickland2445]

I Agree with all those suggestions 😊

[@kammidey]

I agree and add Circle of Hands

[@dunringill1747]

All great suggestions

[@porkypile]

They're very underrated.

[@porkypile]

Rainbow Demon is a banger

[@ianbarnard4963]

One of my fave bands. This song is off their best album imo, called Salisbury. From the same album please react to Time to Live, High Priestess, or Bird of Prey. In fact, every song on this album is a gem. The Park is a very slow tribute, and the title track Salisbury is an epic which takes up almost the whole of one side of the album.

[@dirk2696]

Salisbury is great. Too bad it's too long for a reaction.

[@philmiller5401]

My favorite Uriah Heep song is "Come away Melinda" from their first album. It features violin and soft horns. It's a sad song about a little girl that loses her mother in the war. but they are all good.

[@SanKings_Patti]

Not going to lie, this is my first time hearing this (song/band) What better way to experience it, than with my favorite duo...Thank you! **Amber, hope you had great birthday❣️❣️**

[@dunringill1747]

This is one of my favorites. Some other great Heep tunes include: The Magician's Birthday Sweet Lorraine Bird of Prey Easy Livin' Gypsy July Morning Sunrise Look At Yourself Rainbow Demon

[@bazzer124]

Been a minute, eh? Glad you revisited Uriah Heep. There's much more down this rabbit hole. Try "Easy Livin'" next. Cheers....

[@forakermm]

My favorite song of theirs!! The bass on this song is soooo good!! My family has been instructed to play this at my funeral.🖤🖤🖤

[@RobertoSantana61]

If you're going to do British bands, you need to do Slade. "Run Runaway" (1984) is my favorite. Slade was the first act to have three singles enter the charts at number one in UK, achieving 17 consecutive top 20 hits and six number ones on the UK Singles Chart. According to the 1999 BBC documentary, "It's Slade", the band have sold more than 50 million records worldwide.

[@stevenkaz]

Good choice, would love to know their opinions of Thunder too

[@markstoudenmire4935]

Yeah, they definitely need to go down the Slade rabbit hole.

[@Silber7]

'July Morning' is their most epic, must hear song But they also rock hard and powerful like in 'Look at Yourself', or the hit song 'Easy Livin' And heavy in 'Gypsy' (their first song)

[@moanman1776]

Classic joint. Steller storytelling wrapped up in a rock song. Bravo. BTW: Rob... Being this is Amber's bday month, the perfect romantic ballad for the occasion would be "Song For My Lady" by Jon Lucien. Whether or not you guys ever choose to review it, it will certainly make you both pay attention to its poetic, island-flavored, mad-beautiful uniqueness. I believe you will dig it, madly. Happy Born Day, Amber! Snatch JOY (& cake)! Lin

[@donnadubyak6504]

I have loved this gem since the 70s.

[@rightmeow9004]

This is awesome! I love Uriah Heep ❤

[@niallstranix5412]

Got to love the mighty HEEP! I think you guys would really like 'Firefly' 'Rain' or 'Sunrise', but to be honest I don't think you would go far wrong with any of their songs.

[@JohnRJune]

Sunrise is a great song by this group, as are July Morning, Easy livin', Look at Yourself, Traveler in Time.....

[@JohnRJune]

And they are still out there performing, but only with one original member. They are good though and sound great in live concerts.

[@carlfraley9885]

I remember hearing this at a friend's house when I was 12 and it instantly became my favorite song by this group. Its haunting sound has always stuck with me.

[@erikthompson619]

"I never found out who she was, but she helped me write the song." So said Ken Hensley, Uriah Heep's chief songwriter at the time, keyboard player and occasional acoustic guitarist, slide guitarist and co-lead singer about the girl he saw through the window, struggling against the weather and her hair literally flowng in the midwinter wind. "Lady in black" originally appeared on Uriah Heep's second album in 1971, but was completely overlooked at the time. But in 1977, the band had another predominantly acoustic single coming up, "Free me", and thought this old, similarly structured song would work well as the B-side. That's when it started, in Germany. "Free me" was a hit, but the six-year old B-side became an even bigger hit, an absolutely colossal phenomenon in Germany (this video clip was recorded for German TV at the time). From then "Lady in black" has grown and is now arguably the most popular song in the Uriah Heep catalogue, challenging their long-time biggest hit "Easy livin'" (1972) for the throne. Amazingly, Uriah Heep - one of the Big 4 of British hard rock pioneers, alongside Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath - are still going strong - well, not in the US, of course, where audiences have long since forgot the noble art of keeping up - but in Europe and the rest of the world they are still an ongoing, perennially popular concern still influencing new generations of fans and bands, especially of the hard rock persuasion. Only this year, they released their 25th studio album "Chaos & Colour" to universal fan and critical acclaim. Sadly, the only remaining original member is guitarist Mick Box - all other members of the classic lineup have crossed the rainbow bridge - but he has still successfully managed to honor the proud name of Uriah Heep, joined as he is by Canadian master singer Bernie Shaw, keyboard wizard Phil Lanzon, and the exceptional rhythm section Russell Gilbrook (drums) and Dave Rimmer (bass).

[@terryrogers8304]

I picked up Uriah Heep (Salisbury was my introduction, but I backtracked to catch up) early in High School (Class of 74) and followed them for years, into the 80's and college after a stint in the Military. I loved the two albums from the 1977 time frame , "Firefly" and "Innocent Victim" (Which Free Me came off of). I also loved illusion off of that album. I could listen to those two albums over and over again. Of Course everybody raves about "Demons and Wizards" (rightfully so) and the Magicians Birthday, but Look at Yourself, Salisbury and their first Album were all excellent ( I own the very humble.. british album). The next four, Sweet Freedom (Loved "Stealin"), Wonderwall, Return to Fantasy and High and Mighty, were not as good as the first five studio albums (in my opinion), so I was thrilled when Firefly and Innocent Victim came out, because it felt like a return to their earlier style, even though it was Lawton and not Bryon. I bought later albums like Abominog and others, but did not feel like they were able to re-capture the sound they had in the seventies, maybe they felt like they evolved, but I missed the good old days. Still feel like they owned the seventies, and I chose them over Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Grand Funk, Black Sabbath, Moody Blues and Early Chicago as my favorite all time band. I think I own nearly 20 Uriah Heep Studio albums and tons of collections, Greatest Hits, Anthologies and live albums (on LP's, 8 Tracks and CD's, some on all 3)

[@gypsyroadhog]

Need to do some Slade guys..biggest selling singles artist in uk in 70’s, Cum on feel the Noize being a favourite of theirs

[@chiefsohcahtoa3285]

After you listen to their song, "Easy Livin", it will be your new favorite.

[@WhatAboutThemApples]

And even better they will be forgiven

[@chiefsohcahtoa3285]

@@WhatAboutThemApples I see what you did there. Nice play on words with the lyrics.

[@soundofnellody262]

Listening this song live with a huge audience singing along must be giving chills. this song is 53 years old and still a banger

[@philipgolia9803]

With their most recent album this past January, Chaos and Color, they now have 25 studio albums for you to jump down the Heep rabbit hole and just get lost int he catalogue. This song here is STILL requested live today and is a huge sing along for the audience. I have been a fan of the band since 1972 and let me just say, they are fantastic.

[@jime3154]

Ya'll gonna love this one.

[@69fogdog]

I love that you guys are reacting to Uriah Heep! I am a huge Uriah Heep fan and they have so many great songs in their catalog. I hope you react to Easy Livin', Look at Yourself, July Morning, Sweet Loraine soon. Love you both!

[@TomTom-ui9hg]

Wait until you hear "Rain" , "Sunrise" and "Come Back To Me", all beautiful. "July Morning" and "Sweet Loraine" are also great. Peace!

[@rabootocoelhinho5698]

Add Gypsy, Easy Livin' and Bird of Prey to this list, they are also great songs!

[@TomTom-ui9hg]

@@rabootocoelhinho5698 Agree!

[@robrobertson4619]

“Easy Living” should be your next Uriah Heep tune😉👍

[@vicprovost2561]

This was OK with Ken Hensley taking a swing on vocals but really, as good as this was, you need to hear their biggest hit, Easy Living with the late great David Byron on vocals. A true Uriah Heep banger and how good they could rock out. July Morning from Uriah Heep Live is also an amazing epic. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶

[@taun856]

They did two albums back-to-back that are fantastic (the others are really good too of course) "Demons and Wizards" and "The Magician's Birthday". I think you would really enjoy "Tales" from the later album.

[@richardfeldkamp1707]

This song is very reminiscent of an old English folk ballad done in a modern style. If you like this style, check out 'The Ballad of Matty Groves' or 'Tam Lin' by Fairport Convention. Sandy Denny's voice is amazing.

[@salbuda6957]

Yeah it does have that feel!

[@bumperu]

Fairport Convention very underrated group.

[@argelbargel7680]

"Who Knows Where the Time Goes" is a classic.

[@dmbrew54]

"Easy Livin" is my favorite of their songs. A Headbanger!

[@scottsegerstrom2303]

I absolutely love Amber’s reactions to the core of the music. If you really want to trip on a multi-minute Uriah Heep excursion, you need to liste to “The Magicians Birthday”…strap in for a ride!

[@joankisloski6972]

Uriah Heep's Easy Living & Come Away Melinda are like day & night.

[@donnadubyak6504]

One of my favorite Uriah Heep songs along with Stealin. Saw them in 1975 in a 2000 seat theater. Yeah it was awesome and loud.

[@billg763]

Saw them in late 1971/early 1972 (can't remember which). They had just released their Look at Yourself album. Members were Box, Byron, Kerslake, Hensley, Clarke (drums), and Newton (bass). Had the privilege of seeing them again in 2015 with their current line-up of Box, Shaw, Lanzon, Gilbrook, and Rimmer. They have slowed down one iota and are just as good as their glory days.

[@robertsouva9907]

I know this is from a few days ago but, you have to listen to The Magicians Birthday. You won't regret it 😊😊

[@KnotGypsy]

Love, love, love Uriah Heep. First went to see them in 1977 on the suggestion of my cousin. Fell in love with all their music, but Lady in Black really captured me...enough to go out and look for the album (eventually got all the albums up to and including Firefly) Ended up seeing them 4 times in concert.

[@billg763]

Over the years Heep has a catalogue of mellow ballads that they use as a foil to their heavier rock or progressive music. Quite extraordinary ones at that Come Away Melinda, Lady in Black, If I had the Time, Illusion, The Dancer, Come Back to Me, to name a few from their Byron, then Lawton eras. I hope you continue to explore this truly legendary band.

[@Alithia451]

BTW, Disco was a German music TV show from the 70s.

[@carlospagoaga321]

thank you guys once again for reacting on URIAH HEEP with their remarkable and legendary songs as obvious there's way too much you guys need to learn from them i meam songs like Anything , Sweet Lorraine , Traveler In Time and many more there's no doubt that they're one of many classical rock bands in music history from way back late 60S who took music in a totally different direction and leaving an open path for all the new upcoming artists

[@allengator1914]

You need to do their song "Tears In My Eyes" for the awesome slide guitar in it. "Paradise/The Spell" from their Demons and Wizards album, the same album "The Wizard" is on, is great too.

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

OOh and I met the drummer, Lee, in a club when I was 18. Recognised him immediately. Had a chat, nice guy. He was dating the gorgeous hatcheck girl. Usually not Ken singing but David has the voice for me.

[@vicprovost2561]

Me too, they should be hearing David, not this for a 3rd track, nothing wrong with the song but considering what else from them they could have heard, a bit disappointing.

[@cmroberts5898]

July Morning is one of their best

[@bertisjordan1085]

Growing up none of my friends were into Uriah Heep so in turn I wasn't into them either. We missed out on some good music!

[@stephenroberts8964]

You must check out Easy Living by Uriah Heep. I think so far you've discovered the lighter side of Heep, but they rock out too, and Easy Living is a prime example of that.

[@susanliltz3875]

Psychedelic = “Ina-gadda-devidda” By Iron Butterfly I’m not giving up on this!! Hope you’ll listen to it someday!! Classic!! Psychedelic!! Great drum and guitar and piano (organ?)!! All your favorites!!

I saw Uriah Heep open up for Kiss back in 1976 great show!

[@elizabethfranco1284]

So beautiful

[@gregg6992]

Definitely Magician's Birthday!

[@ALAN_COX]

That was Ken Hensley on lead vocals and guitar. The guy was multi-talented. He was the one laying down all of the Hammond B3 organ on their early songs, a lot of which were written by him. He also sang lead vocals on a few songs as you see here, as well as trading lead guitar duties with Mick Box. Sadly, Ken passed away in 2020.

[@hollydeitch1977]

I recommend… “Mother” by Danzig “Silent Lucidity” by Queensrÿche One’s rocking, ones just a masterpiece ❤

[@stormtwo-spirits5662]

A couple more of my fave UH songs are The Magician’s Birthday and, Return to Fantasy And yes my favorite by them is The Wizard.

[@joditerry3895]

one of my favorite groups, July Morning is a must listen, Sweet Lorraine and Easy Livin' also great songs. much Love Blessings and Peace

[@levvellene570]

In many ways Uriah Heep were an early heavy prog rock band from their start in the very late 60's. I think their first record came out in 1970? Their two first records mainly passed the general public by, and this song was on their second album. "Look at yourself" followed, and then there was "Demons and Wizards", and the song Easy Livin' is still popular today, even if few remember the name of the band that recorded it.

[@Jared1701]

One of my Favorite songs ever

[@jjgovna5239]

Yea "July Morning" is a great one!

[@imthedead]

You need "Sunrise", "Gypsy", "July Morning", "The Magician's Birthday", "Look at yourself" to name few and "Sweet Lorraine", "Tears in My Eyes", "Circle of Hands" just to name few more....

[@michaelrue1400]

I love this kind of thing too. Jethro Tull has a lot like that as well, storytelling over hard rock music.

[@Morthoron1]

Try "Gypsy". Epic rock song. Really. Or "Easy Livin'".

[@SolonWilliams-we4oz]

My name is Sol and I'm 72 years old Uriah Heep and a lot of rock & roll groups from 60s to 70s y'all call it psychedelic and we always just called it head music

This has been my favorite song - words and music - by any artist for 50-ish years. You did a fantastic job with it. I am adding this to my folder of Exceptional Reaction Videos. Thank you. I rarely comment here but have been following your channel since Jay was doing these alone. Amber’s contribution has been terrific.

[@rareacts9868]

Try reacting to their song "sympathy" or "July Morning"

[@stormy8207]

The origins of this type of music is based in old UK minstrel music. Going back 500 yesrs or more. The focus is on story telling and originally would have been performed with mandolins, drums and banging sticks, tamborines etc Fleetwood Mac used similar subject matter in Rhiannon, but of course with an updated style.

[@MrHighco]

Sympathy or love or nothing are Great Songs too !

[@brokl26]

The “disco” sign above the stage slays me.

[@crimsonwizard2560]

Yikes. I love this song. Absolute stonker.

[@Jessica_Roth]

This is from the 2nd album, "Salisbury", where Ken Hensley (keyboards) started to take over the songwriting after the first album was a bit of a struggle. Hensley's other gem on this album was "The Park" and that deserves a listen, as well. (I would love for you to cover the title track…but that's 18 minutes long. I'm thrilled you did "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", but I know you're still not doing so many long songs.) Thank you for acknowledging Paul Newton's work on the bass here. So many people love the lineup from the 4th album, where Newton and Ian Clarke (drums) were replaced by Gary Thain and Lee Kerslake, respectively, but while the new players were excellent, it's not as if Newton and Clarke were incompetent. In fact, my favorite album by UH is the third album"Look at Yourself". The title track is an absolute classic (catch the live version), "I Want to be Free" is great and I think "July Morning" is the best song Heep ever did. And yes, it runs 10.32…but you just did 13 minutes of Pink Floyd, you can spare 10.32 for Uriah Heep, right? You KNOW you want to…

[@TerryKrysinski]

Very cool,guys! Their entire Demons & Wizards and Look At Yourself albums are fire! This vid is not from the original recording (second album called 'Salisbury'). Their lead singer,David Byron,sang the song. In this vid,keysman/2nd guitarist Ken Hensley is singing it. Byron had already left the band,so they taped this vid sometime later on. I've never seen it...strange seeing Hensley singing to the studio track. Thanks for the reaction,tho. Dive in with more UH! :-) T

[@TerryKrysinski]

My bad...just found out that David Byron didn't like the song,so their producer told ken Hensley he should sing it. I never knew that all these long years. T

[@rabootocoelhinho5698]

it's actually Ken Hensley singing, however, the song is from the 1971 line-up of the Salisbury album, and Byron refused to sing on it, so Hensley performs vocals on that song. The video, however, is of the 1977 lineup (after bassist Gary Thain's death and Byron's departure).

im 62 so I remember 70's FM getting loose and Uriah Heep was one of those late night atmospheric bands that got played before corporate programming. Since you liked this I have a unique suggestion-Candles in the rain by Melanie. You did Brand New Key which wasn't about roller skates. This song is about her experience at Woodstock where she performed and she is backed by the gospel choir Edwin Hawkins Group. Sounds like a Friday song...
