Uriah Heep - Fallen Angel (1978)


Uriah Heep - Fallen Angel (1978)

"Innocent Victim" (1977), "Firefly" (1977), "Fallen Angel" (1978) o "Conquest" (1980) fueron adocenados discos con algunos pasajes interesantes que preludiaron el sorprendente "Abominog" (1982), un gran trabajo producido por Ashley Howe (colaborador de grupos como Osibisa o Hawkwind, que ya había trabajado con Uriah Heep previamente como ingeniero de sonido) y el cual ya sólo contaba con Mick Box como integrante original de la banda.
Con posterioridad, continuarían editando discos, pero en su mayoría directos y recopilaciones.

1. "Woman of The Night" (Box, Lawton, Kerslake) – 4:07
2. "Falling in Love" (Hensley) – 2:59
