Lot 45URIAH HEEP-...VERY 'EAVY VERY 'UMBLE-1970-FIRST PRESS UK- VERTIGO SWIRL-NMINT/NMINT

URIAH HEEP-...VERY 'EAVY VERY 'UMBLE-1970-THE FIRST UK PRESS- VERTIGO SWIRL-6360006.  A mega rare British original of the iconic album. The album was released in June 1970 by Vertigo Records in the UK. The original vinyl release was a spread-out envelope with frontman David Byron depicted on the front sleeve, almost unrecognizable under the cobwebs. It was released in August 1970 by Mercury Records in the United States under the name just Uriah Heep with a different artwork on the cover (a centipede-type monster) and with the track "Bird of Prey" instead of "Lucy Blues". The album was re-released by Bronze Records in 1971 after the band signed with that label.

The album shows the band trying out different genres – a mix of heavy metal and progressive rock, rather than the hard rock they became known for on later albums. Tracks 3 and 8 were recorded as Spice songs before the band was renamed Uriah Heep, and featured session musician Colin Wood on keyboards. When Ken Hensley joined Spice in early 1970, the tracks were not re-recorded.

Vinyl record in top condition- NMINT/ARCHIVE. The front cover is laminated in excellent condition with some creases on all ends. At the same time, the laminate shines with brilliance. - EX+/NMINT . Labels are clean and beautiful- NMINT/ARCHIVE
