26 tunes of reverential rollicking, but his
ongoing zeal for performing (even at 66) is

CAGE THE GODS
Badlands
(The End)
What kind of chicks are these leather-clad
revivers of good-ol' hard rock trying to
seduce? The kind who like being called
"little woman," being dragged "back to
hell," and being reminded that since those
who gave them what they want find them
"so f--king beautiful", they should simply
"handle it." And that's just Track One (of
13). In short, boilerplate bad-boy misogyny lives or at least refuses to go gentle into
that good night. Call it the daze of Guns
'N Roses. No, the title cut isn't a
Springsteen cover. (Would that it were.)
No, "Falling" isn't a LeBlanc & Cover
cover. (Ditto.) Only "Bruce Willis" ("I
wake every morning with a feeling I'm
getting too old for this shit") justifies the
effort. (Hey, Looper wasn't that bad.)

continues that tradition. There has been
but one mainstay throughout Heep’s long,
storied career- guitarist and founding
member, Mick Box. “Speed Of Sound”
shows Shaw is a great fit as their vocalist,
as is Phil Lanzon, whose unmistakable
Hammond B3 organ echoes the signature
sound of original keyboardist, Ken
Hensley. Throughout Outsider, particularly on “One Minute,” Heep’s signature
vocal harmonies set them apart from their
peers. Here's hoping Uriah Heep continues to soldier on. Though their place in
history is already safely assured, the galloping title track alone proves there’s still a
lot of life left in these seasoned veterans.

THE FLOCK
Heaven Bound
(Purple Pyramid/Cleopatra)
Heaven Bound should please audio time
travelers looking for the “lost” fourth
album from Chicago’s most adventurous
’60s band, the Flock. Original members
Fred Glickstein, Jerry Smith and Ron
Karpman find their way onto this new CD
alongside a parcel of players from a later
incarnation as Strategic Ear Command.
Comprised mostly of songs written in
the mid- to late-’70s, driving force
Glickstein steers his troops back into
