1. wow.,..i remember them

I used to love Rainbow Demon. I forgot all about them...

[maveric]

2. I like them. Saw them live in 74 and it was a great show.

I love their song "Stealin".

[DrWeird]

3. sounds like a Dickens characer.

Wasn't he a bad guy in David Copperfield?

[jonnyblitz]

5. yes he was.

there was also a band from the 70's with the same name. David Copperfield is an excellent story btw. :thumbsup:

4. Easy Living

6. Uriah Heep!

I was listening to them the first time I got stoned...them and Jethro Tull. ;-) This "newbie" is an oldie!

[yardwork]

7. Jethro Tull is the guy who invented a special kind of plow in England

[DancingBear]

12. He actually invented the seed drill

[ET Awful]

8. I still think their name sounds like some kind of bladder infection :)

:evilgrin:

[eyepaddle]

9. I like them,

"Bird of Prey" and especially "July Morning" great songs.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

10. "Never quite made it"

I guess those 12 cds of theirs I have are mostly delusional...

[Lenape85]

11. No, I mean, became a household name

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

13. They were top 40 at one time

Remember "Stealin'"?

[DancingBear]

14. Saw them in '72

Opening for Fleetwood Mac.

For those who don't remember, at one time Fleetwood Mac were actually progressive.

In hindsight, however, Uriah Heep was a wretched band, even though one can find copies of "Look At Yourself", "Salisbury", "Demons And Wizards" and "The Magicians Birthday" in the DancingBear music collection.
