66 yrs old still love this album. Damn, over 50 yrs ago!! SMH.

My mom used to play this album when I was a kid. These guys were in a class by themselves.

As a 14 year old in 1970 I found a love that has lasted a lifetime, that love is for great music, thank you Uriah beep, Peter green,Pink Floyd, marmalade, bad finger and many many more for giving me something to live for …..

The whole album is great but this opening track is probably my favorite.

When I was 57 years old my 18 year old girlfriend bought this album for me on vinyl. I'm 65 now and she is still in my life. You treat someone good and the never leave. I have long rock n' roll hair with 2 thin grey streaks and it is natural.

Uriah Heep - The Wizard Lyrics: He was the wizard of a thousand kings And I chanced to meet him one night wanderin' He told me tales, and he drank my wine Me and my magic man kinda feelin' fine He had a cloak of gold and eyes of fire And as he spoke I felt a deep desire To free the world of its fear and pain And help the people to feel free again Why don't we listen to the voices in our hearts? 'Cause then I know we'd find, we're not so far apart Everybody's got to be happy, everyone should sing For we know the joy of life, peace and love can bring So spoke the wizard in his mountain home The vision of his wisdom means we'll never be alone And I will dream of my magic night And the million silver stars that guide me with their light Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah

One of my first Albums that I ever purchased myself with lawn mowing money, I still have it. I cherish this song more today than ever before, I actually cry now, we were never meant to live this way, stuck in some kind of slave construct or open prison. I am seeing a split though as of late, there seems to be many waking up, but just as many or more that seem dependent on the system, perhaps we are seperating, I pray for a positive future, especially for the children.

found this song while looking for a song about wizards, and gotta say this was a fantastic introduction to Uriah Heep. One of my favorite songs of all time definitely!

I haven't listened to these guys in forever

1st LP I ever bought, SO many memories

Greetings from Oregon. What a great band. I knew they were tight. Helped they're stage 1975. Toledo Ohio. They are cool as hell..

Stumbled across this song and now I've gone down the rabbit hole....WOW!

I remember the first time I heard the Heep. Long ago, I was mesmerized by their presence. Decades later, this utter feeling of awe continues. They were perfect!

One of the best songs of this great band when it was at its best. Amazing!

I am 57 and I saw them in 1982 in Nashville, TN opening for Judas Priest. One of the best bands I ever saw live.

Loved it then, still beautiful.

Hi!!/Salut!! when I'm talking about Uriah Heep, I'm talking about the "Dream Team" back in the 60's and 70's but, I don't know Uriah Heep after the departure of David Byron. So, you write Godfathers of metal.......to me, it's impossible cause Uriah Heep play only one "kind" of music.......it's not rock,metal,or any kind of music that I know before the 1st time I see them in concert back in 1972. To me, Uriah Heep well, they play URIAH HEEP music and nothing else. Don't get me wrong, cause I have nothing again the group after the Byron-Thain era, but, I never been the same since Jan. 20 1972. then 1974(with Savoy Brown) and again in 1977 or 78 for the ultimate concert: Uriah Heep & Jethro Tull. The U.H. sound maybe metal for some but, to me it's a unique sound. Have a good day....from Montréal

My favorite song from my all time favorite band 🤩

I discovered this song in 10th grade 1981. It was like unearthing a rare stone. I was high and the art work on the album sleeve was affected by blacklight and the smell of incense and weed and this song. I always think of that when I hear this. A really cool time to be a teenager. The 80's were a lot different than today. I'd go back.

He was the wizard of a thousand kings......

Magnificent use of the tea kettle.

This is my favorite album....Great
