    This was truly an amazing band. All supremely talented and David Byron was a great singer and very charismatic front man. I saw them right around this time opening for Emerson Lake and Palmer when ELP was at the peak of their Brain Salad Surgery era. Remember when you could see a show and sometimes have two or three bands that were all headliners in one night. Wow. Glad I was a teenager at that time. We may not have been the Greatest Generation, but we were sure as fuck the Luckiest Generation. Hey, that would make a good book.

      They played this when they opened for Kiss at the Assembly Center in 1977, it was their encore, after that Kiss looked flat, Kiss stopped the concert during Beth, I guess they couldn't take being upstaged. Riot began shortly after that.😂

      Haha, Poor Kiss being deflated! Crazy about a riot too! Wish I’d gone to see Uriah, never cared for Kiss all too much, the Assembly Center was the place to be for huge concerts, sweet memories made there.

    I first heard this song on a Warner Brothers loss leader album called "Heavy Metal" and fell in love ❤. I got to see them open for KISS in 77, Stealin was their encore. After that KISS looked like they were mailing in their show, they quit during Beth, and a riot ensued. Heep owned that night

    Saw Heep 5 times in Baltimore/Washington/Harrisburg PA ‘73-‘76, 4 times with this (best) lineup. I was a bit of a junky. Rock and Roll Medley off their live album at the Harrisburg show was off the charts. We met them getting in limos afterward and I got picks from MB and a friend got a set of sticks from LK. Manfred Manns Earth Band and Blue Oyster Cult led off. MMEB doing Father of Night Father of Day was intense, especially Mick Rogers’ guitar lead. Good memories 😊

      @@Randetroit I did not but a friend did in Pittsburgh. IIRC it was one of the very first US appearances of Rush when he saw them. BTW, I have to correct myself….I saw them 4 times, not 5. It was a lifetime ago!! BOC backed up UH twice (once in Landover 1975 and once in Harrisburg 1974), and strangely (I thought) Earth, Wind and Fire and little known ZZ Top did in Baltimore in 1973. By the second time in Landover 1976 they had become the backup to BOC. Wetton had taken over for the late Gary Thain at that point (Return to Fantasy tour). I saw dozens of shows ‘73-‘78 but I confess my memories of details aren’t always robust 😎
