Meet The Heepsters back in the seventies

When we were young

"When our hearts were young we never thought that live would change"
Uriah Heep Sonic Origami - Shelter from the rain 1998

Born in the year that Heep release Very 'Eavy, Very 'Umble, it took me 18 years and two uncles that gave away their records to discover Heep. The record that started it all was,of course, Demons & Wizards completed by Look At Yourself (without the mirror on the front cover) and Wonderworld (which is still like much).

I was so bored of studying that i needed some music on the background and why i choose to finaly play the records that were stored away for more than a year only God knows but it blew my mind away.

I could only replay the songs in my head the next morning on the exams but that didn't matter- Heep found another fan.

Seen Heep the first time on stage during the Different World album and though i was not so impressed by the songs of that album, Bernie's stagepresence was impressive. He onl got better throughout the years

Started surfing the web in 1995 and bumping into Hani So's first unofficial Heep site, i developed a close relationship with him and started passing him scans of all covers and lyrics that i've assembled during my time to enhance his website.

The ultimate dream was to once see Heep playing again with Hensley on stage and so i was thrilled to attend the MBP in 2001- my dream came through and this moment i'll caress for "All My Life"
