Starting a downward trend this is one that I can&#8217;t even remember the last time I put this one on. Pretty much abandoning their Heavy Metal and Progressive roots these songs are more slower and mellow. Side one has &#8220;Suicidal Man&#8221; the most straight ahead rocker on the album but also a crappy ballad &#8220;The Easy Road&#8221;. Side two must have been what I listened to most because I knew those four songs. &#8220;Something Or Nothing&#8221; released as a single and &#8220;We Got We&#8221; sound like they were trying to make a Top 40 Pop song. &#8220;I Won&#8217;t Mind&#8221; is a good Blues track with a blistering solo by Mick Box on the long fadeout. That and &#8220;Suicidal Man&#8221; are the best songs on the record. &#8220;Dreams&#8221; the last song is a more typical Uriah Heep song with synthesizer and guitar sounding like it might be from The Magician&#8217;s Birthday. One I could probably do without. The last record with Gary Thain as he died from a drug overdose in 1975 at the age of 27. Replaced by John Wetton for a couple of years. Had their next record Return To Fantasy but liked it even less and sold it a long time ago. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Original Album number 7 and one I bought in 1974 when it was released.
