CONQUEST

Yet another travesty is released uopn the world with the name of Uriah Heep printed on it. I find it hard to believe this was actually remastered. Why? Only a TRUE Heep fan could care about this record. This bears as little resemblence to DEMONS AND WIZARDS as TALK does to CLOSE TO THE EDGE. Very much a product of it's times (1980's). "Fools" and "It Ain't Easy" are the only tracks here that I can listen to without pain. It would be interesting to hear these 2 tunes sung by an earlier Uriah Heep singer such as David Byron or John Lawton. I don't feel John Sloman fits into the Uriah Heep style of vocals very well. This is a bit better than other Heep of the 1980's like EQUATOR. A bit. 2 stars for a few decent tunes.
