| | Uriah Heep Demons And Wizards CD Uriah Heep Discography of CDs
(21 Customer Reviews)
Although renowned heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio would become the eventual undisputed "expert" on dungeons, dragons, and wizards, one of the first heavy metal bands to tackle such subject matter was Uriah Heep on their 1972 release, DEMONS ... Full DescriptionAND WIZARDS.
But just as the band went "medieval" on us, they also issued their best straight-ahead rocker (and biggest U.S. hit), "Easy Livin," which was eventually covered by '80s shock rockers W.A.S.P. Other Heep highlights include the album-opening folk rocker "The Wizard" (not the same similarly-titled song by another British metal band--Black Sabbath) and the space rocker "Traveller in Time."
Recorded at Landsdowne Studios, London in March and April, 1972. Includes liner notes by Ken Hensley.
Personnel: David Byron (vocals); Ken Hensley (guitar, keyboards, percussion); Mick Box (guitar); Gary Thain (bass); Lee Kerslake (drums, percussion).

Demons And Wizards album
$6.39 Uriah Heep's 1972 release, THE MAGICIAN'S BIRTHDAY, followed in the same direction as its predecessor one year earlier, DEMONS AND WIZARDS--mystical lyrical themes are merged with heavy guitar riffs and prog-rock organ/synth explorations. ...
| | Uriah Heep Look At Yourself CD (1971)
Demons And Wizards CD music
$6.85 One year after their self-titled debut appeared in 1970 (entitled VERY 'EAVY VERY 'UMBLE in) England, Uriah Heep struck again with their sophomore effort, LOOK AT YOURSELF. While their debut was a solid slice of blues-based heavy metal, LOOK AT YOURSELF expanded the band's sound, bridging the straight-ahead ...
| | Deep Purple Machine Head CD (1972)
Demons And Wizards music CDs
$6.39 A probable contender for one of hard rock's "all-time most influential albums," Deep Purple's MACHINE HEAD has all the markings of a heavy classic. It was here that the band's combination of amped-up blues, progressive instrumental prowess, screaming guitars, and thunderous rhythms was crystallized for the ages, helping to lay the foundation for hard rock and heavy metal throughout the '70s, ...

| | Wishbone Ash Argus CD (1972) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Expanded Edition
Demons And Wizards album
$6.39 On its third album, Wishbone Ash doesn't mess with its formula--as before, this long running British rock institution purveys a mix of blues, folk, and Yes- style riffs mated to endearingly cosmic lyrics. The songs here, however, are considerably more focused and well crafted than on the band's previous efforts, and the harmony singing is delightful.
As always, the band's basis is the tag team guitars of Andy Powell and ...
| | Mike Bloomfield Super Session CD (1968) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Demons And Wizards CD music
$7.59 A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth.
Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know how brilliant they could be on stage, and here's another gem, recorded at the Fillmore East this time and featuring 'One Way Out,' 'It's My Own Fault' (with Bloomfield trading licks with ...

| | Alice Cooper Freedom For Frankenstein CD (1998) (Import) Australia
Demons And Wizards album
$21.05 Alice Cooper has been the subject of many compilations over the years, especially those that chronicle his late-'80s comeback period. This 1998 Australian release, FREEDOM FOR FRANKENSTEIN: HITS & PIECES 1984-91, is definitely the best of the bunch. What makes it better than the similar PRINCE OF DARKNESS compilation is that this collection includes his best work from MCA and Epic recordings, plus rarities and live renditions of several early-'70s classics. Listeners get an extensive overview the material that helped fuel Cooper's resurgence.
Pop-metal compositions like "He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask)," "Teenage Frankenstein," and "Freedom" are included from Cooper's MCA years. More commercially successful work--"Poison," "Hey Stoopid," "Feed My Frankenstein," and "Sideshow"--is also included. Hardcore fans will love the wealth ...
| | Southern Culture On The Skids Ditch Diggin CD (1994)
Demons And Wizards CD music
$13.89 On its full-length debut, North Carolina trio Southern Culture on the Skids develops a high-octane mix of raucous rockabilly, R&B, surf, and punk influences that is unique and wildly exciting. From the most attractive HEE-HAW honey on the front cover-actually bassist/organist Mary Huff-to singer/guitarist Rick Miller's knowing, sly lyrics, DITCH DIGGIN' examines the subtleties of rural Southern culture with such unapologetic anthems as "Too Much Pork For Just One Fork," the delirious "Put Your Teeth Up On The Window Sill," and "My House Has Wheels."
In less skillful hands, these lyrical preoccupations might seem like heavy-handed satire or mean-spirited attacks. But Miller, Huff, and drummer David ...

| | King Crimson Larks' Tongues In Aspic: 30th Anniversary Edition CD (1973) (Import)
Demons And Wizards songs
$15.05 The initial pressing of LARKS' TONGUES IN ASPIC is packaged in a cardboard-stock gatefold sleeve.
After the transitional ISLANDS, LARK'S TONGUES began the third Crimson phase that ended with RED. The quartet of David Cross, John Wetton, Robert Fripp and Bill Bruford (augmented on LARK'S TONGUES by madman percussionist Jamie Muir) is regarded as the most innovative of Crimson's many lineups, offering hard-edged improvisations on an unprecedented level. With founding member/lyricist Pete Sinfield departed, Robert Palmer-James stepped in with a more cutting, concise lyrical approach that matched the group's uncompromising instrumental precision.
The album opens with part one ...
