URIAH HEEP -WAKE THE SLEEPER-2008-FIRST PRESS UK/EU -SANCTUARY-1767594. Mega rare original of the cult group. Wake The Sleeper is the 21st Studio album by rock band Uriah Heep, released on June 2, 2008 in Europe and August 26, 2008 in the United States. The announced release in September 2007 was postponed (initially to March 2008) as a result of the purchase of Sanctuary Records by Universal Music. This was to ensure that the album was properly promoted, not that it was "lost" during the shift, and although this was unpleasant for them, the band members supported it. This is their first Studio album since 1998's Sonic Origami. It is also their first album since 1980's Conquest without long-time drummer Lee Kerslake, who was forced to leave the band due to ill health in 2007, ending the band's longest-running line-up of 21 years. Wake The Sleeper was nominated by the British Classic Rock magazine as Album of the year.

Waiting for the Sun is the third studio album by the American rock band The Doors, released in July 1968. The CD was recorded at Sunset Sound Studio (Los Angeles).
