In January 2011, the band returned to the studio to record “Into the Wild” and the band once again returned to the road for a worldwide tour. Playing to nearly 150,000 people, in Eastern Europe, Australia, Japan, and America and playing in 58 different countries in total. On March 4th 2014, Uriah Heep played in front of their “home” audience in London and performed an amazing show which was recorded in HD for a release in Double CD/DVD and, for the first time, on Blu-ray.

“Recording a live DVD in London at Koko's was just fantastic. Our fans travelled from all over the world to be there, and be part of this magic night,” says Mick Box. “This added so much to the atmosphere, and thankfully it was captured on camera. We debuted two songs from our new CD, 'Outsider,' that night, and the reaction was just incredible, proving that we have the best fans in the world.”

Originally founded by vocalist David Byron and guitarist Mick Box, Uriah Heep has been through an incredible number of permutations, with Mick Box always at the helm. Long standing keyboard player Phil Lanzon and vocalist Bernie Shaw were recruited nearly 30 years ago in 1986. Drummer Russell Gilbrook who has now been with the band 7 years, has recorded studio albums “Wake the Sleeper”, “Into the Wild” & “Outsider”. “Wake the Sleeper” heralded an exciting new phase for the band, taking Heep’s classic sound right into the future. The band celebrated its 40th anniversary with an aptly titled greatest hits re-recordings album called “Celebration”. Dave Rimmer, who had been standing in for Trevor Bolder (ex-David Bowie's Spiders From Mars), continues as the bassist, with the band’s diary for the foreseeable future as full as ever.

Amazon's initial pre-order listing shows the CD/DVD package as only two discs total, but Frontiers are saying that it will actually be a 2CD/1DVD set, with the audio for the entire concert spread over two CDs. Here's a preview:

I know some (Hi IP!) really like the current Heep. I bought 3 fairly recent shows from Concerts Live last fall, & wasn't all that impressed. I love the original band.

God Bless these guys! I really liked “Wake the Sleeper” and “Into the Wild”. "The Magician's Birthday" DVD from 2002 was stellar.

And of course, as with all you Heepster's out there I have all their stuff with Byron & Hensley. Classic Metal!

This Heep since 1995 has been nothing but sheer power and class.

Every bit as good as the classic Heep of 1971-74 (I also loved the 1977-79 and 1982-85 eras).

Wake The Sleeper, Celebration, Into The Wild and Outside are so good there's no way a band this old should be putting out some of their best material ever.

Might have to get this.

Demons & Wizards was my first vinyl LP I ever bought. I have the Japanese CD pressing from a few years back. Sounds as good as it did on vinyl.
