While at work........... standing next to a chandelier talking to customers

Hearing  Gary Thain leading David Byron thru the intro to "Stealin"

'Take me across the water
'cause I need someplace to hide
I done the Ranchers daughter
and I sure did hurt his pride.....


  ;)

Uriah Heep still gets played regularly in both my car and shed. Gary Thain is my style o bass playin'   love Stealin'

Right when I think I've heard all the good 'old' stuff, I see a lyric I've never heard and now I need to go find that song. That's a great freakin' stanza!

I had to order the CD a few days ago............. We use to play Easy Livin' and Stealin' is a great tune that needs to be on my iPod.

It only gets better!

 "Stood on a ridge and shunned religon
thinkin' the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake
stealin' when I shoulda been buyin'

 
It keeps playing in my head...............................

Fine by me  :)
