Uriah Heep — Wacken Open Air, 2019

Filmed on 3 August 2019 by the official Wacken Open Air channel, this Uriah Heep full show gathers the great classics of British hard rock before the huge crowd of the most famous metal festival in the world. Founded in 1969, the band led by guitarist Mick Box crosses five decades of career in eleven songs, from ‘Grazed by Heaven’ to the timeless anthems ‘Gypsy’, ‘Look at Yourself’, ‘July Morning’, ‘Lady in Black’ and the inevitable ‘Easy Livin”. A pro-shot live capture with solid sound, the video shows a band that pioneered Hammond-organ rock and epic harmonies, still formidable on stage. For fans of classic rock and vintage heavy, this complete live concert is a history lesson: that of an outfit which inspired generations of musicians. A concert filmed at Wacken, a precious document of an evening where the German crowd sang Uriah Heep’s choruses back in unison.
