On 24th September BMG are delighted to announce the release of Choices, a personal selection of Uriah Heep hits and deep cuts from across the band’s exceptional fifty year and 24 album career.
Created with the full collaboration of Uriah Heep themselves and curated by guitarist and founder member Mick Box from the seminal albums by British hard rock legends Uriah Heep. The six discs, include personal selections from Ken Hensley and Lee Kerslake who sadly both passed in 2021. New additions to the Choices collection come from lead vocalist Bernie Shaw and keyboard player Phil Lanzon, who have both been with the band for 35 years.
This collection of 77 tracks, is completed with six art cards which carry personal notations from each band member and their reproduced signature.
‘Who would have guessed it, 50 years of Heep and counting! Our music has continued to stand the test of time, and the fans are the reason we are still here doing it. There is no better feeling than knowing our music has endured, and that our live shows continue to rock people in 62 countries worldwide.’ – Mick Box
