Jeez, I just discovered this video of Uriah Heep in concert in 1973,

Myself and a couple of other friends were stationed in England and went to see that concert, but I never knew, until now, that a video of it was made, this is the song I went to see, we rocked out all night and were late getting back to base, but it was worth it.

Hope y'all enjoy the song.

They were among the early metal bands out there, long before bands like Metallica, Judas Priest, etc.

They did rock the venue and I hope you enjoyed them.

Decent video production for 51 years ago, too.
I'm most surprised at how good the audio is. A lot of band film from that era is so focused on cinema that the audio is an afterthought. Too much "Close enough" attitude.
Nice find, MCE.
