Product Description

Uriah Heep's debut album, "Very 'Eavy, Very 'Umble," released on June 19, 1970, under Sanctuary Records, is a cornerstone of both progressive and hard rock genres. This 2016 remastered edition offers a comprehensive journey through the band's early sound, featuring original tracks and a wealth of alternative versions, instrumental tracks, and live BBC sessions.

The album opens with the classic "Gypsy," a track that showcases Uriah Heep's signature blend of powerful vocals, intricate guitar work, and a driving rhythm section. Other standout tracks include "Come Away Melinda," a haunting ballad, and "Real Turned On," a hard-rocking anthem that highlights the band's raw energy. The alternative versions and extended mixes provide a fascinating glimpse into the band's creative process, while the live BBC sessions capture the raw power of Uriah Heep in concert.

With a runtime of over two hours, this deluxe edition is a treasure trove for both longtime fans and newcomers to Uriah Heep's music. The album's dynamic range, from the bluesy "Lucy Blues" to the progressive epic "Dreammare," demonstrates the band's versatility and innovative spirit. "Very 'Eavy, Very 'Umble" is not just a collection of songs but a testament to Uriah Heep's enduring influence on rock music.

This is a 2021 Reissue released as a LP.

Eye-catching album art that preps you for an intense metal adventure. As their debut and one of their finest, this is a must-own Heap release.
Digital or Analog Reissue?

Great Reissue! Is this a Digital or Analog Reissue??
Better Than 2015 Remaster
3 out of 5 stars
Jiqa0229 July 2025United States🇺🇸
Alright, so I picked up this picture disc and I've gotta say, the audio quality is way better than that 2015 remaster. "Walking In Your Shadow" is particularly great, no compression at all, and the final tracks don't have that hiss (no awful S) stuff. But it still feels a bit digital to me, and you'll need to turn up the volume. The big issue is the loud surface noise, especially on the second side. So if you're after a new budget release, I'd say this is the one to grab.
Ess’s Too Loud, Killer Album
4 out of 5 stars
bpomoqecp323 June 2025United States🇺🇸
I'd definitely suggest this copy, just wish the ess’s weren’t so loud in the vocals. That aside, it’s an amazingly recorded album with killer bass and sharp guitar. Two thumbs up!
Canada's Vertical Gatefold Cover
4 out of 5 stars
JnrPubt7421 June 2025United States🇺🇸
I'm thrilled Canada received this edition. While the original cover is nice, the vertical gatefold cover here is absolutely fantastic, and truthfully, one of my all-time favorite hard rock album covers.
