More information: Part of the extensive reissue programme by British hard rock legends Uriah Heep.
Initially released in 1972 ‘Demons And Wizards’ is the fourth album by British rock band Uriah Heep. Fast forward 46 years it still remains a timeless classic. Painstakingly remastered by Andy Pearce this 2CD set also includes previously unreleased alternative mixes that excite, reignite and rejuvenate. Extensive liner notes penned by best-selling author Joel McIver tell the story of the band’s ascent to the very top and are accompanied by new and revealing accounts of the time from Mick Box and Ken Hensley.
‘Demons And Wizards’ catapulted the band into the stratosphere with over 3 million copies sold worldwide. The newfound chemistry with Gary Thain joining Heep midway through their American tour immediately paid dividends, the classic line-up of Uriah Heep was born. Tracks such as ‘The Wizard’ & ‘Easy Livin’’ became synonymous with the bands success, with biographer K.Blows later going on to say “Everything clicked into place” and it did. ‘Demons And Wizards’ reached No.20 in the UK, No.23 in the US and for 14 weeks it topped the charts in Finland.
