I've known about Uriah Heep for a long time and probably heard some of their songs while growing up in the 70s, but I never owned any of their albums. Liking bands from the late 60s like Cream, Deep Purple, and Blind Faith, I recently ordered some CDs from several groups including Uriah Heep, Wishbone Ash, Captain Beyond, and King Crimson. I like Very 'eavy, Very 'umble. It is a good hard rock album with decent melodies, good singing and playing, and lots of energy. But the album lacks the spice that would have earned it 5 stars. In contrast, I think the debut albums from Wishbone Ash and Captain Beyond are outstanding and exciting albums. (I view "In the Court of the Crimson King" by King Crimson as well-played and innovative, but kind of dull.)
