Ken Hensley keyboardist/guitarist/songwriter

of Uriah Heep fame died in November.

I remember as a boy buying Pink Floyd's Relics LP

partly because it was very cheap!

However it was scratched and jumped.

I asked my Mum if she would take it back.

Adding that if they did not have another copy I would take, the very expensive,

Magician's Birthday by Uriah Heep instead.

My Mum was a friend of the woman who ran this particular record shop

and, not having another Relics in stock exchanged it for the Heep album

at no extra charge...result!

I bloody hammered it as you can imagine.

Brian Matthew did a kind of music news slot on the radio.

This one  is from 1977 with special guest Ken Hensley.

Ken is interviewed between news items/chewing gum adverts

A bit of history for you.

regards

Titus
