HENSLEY, KEN (EX-URIAH HEEP) -EAGER TO PLEASE-1975-THE FIRST UK PRESS-BRONZE-ILPS9307. Matrices A-1/B-1 Rare British original of KEN HENSLEY's (URIAH HEEP) second solo album Eager To Please is the second solo album by Ken Hensley, known as the leader of the English rock band Uriah Heep, released in 1975 on Bronze Records and on Warner Bros. Records. Emboldened by the success of his debut solo album Proud Words on a Dusty Shelf (1973), Ken Hensley recorded his second solo work in 1975, calling it Eager To Please, which means "Trying to please" or "Striving to please." Everyone can judge how much Hensley tried to please the public. But based on the tastes of the average Uriah Heep fan, it's clear that Ken was expected to do something similar.

WARHORSE-WARHORSE-1970-THE FIRST UK PRESS-VERTIGO SWIRL-6360015. A mega rare original of the first album by the iconic British prog band. Warhorse is a band formed by ex-Deep Purple bassist Nick Simper. The band existed from 1970 to 1974 (partial reunions in 1985, 2005). The band's sound was close to the style of the early Deep Purple. After his forced departure from Deep Purple, Nick Simper started organizing a new band. Initially, he planned to involve well-known musicians Albert Lee and Mick Underwood in the collaboration, but this alliance did not take place. The new band was based on guitarist Jed Pack and drummer Mac Poole, musicians who played with Simper in the accompanying Marsha Hunt line—up. The new band also includes vocalist Ashley Holt and keyboardist Rick Wakeman. The band received the name "Iron Horse", which was soon changed to "Warhorse". Wakeman proved to be an unreliable partner and left the band in April, before the band had even made any recordings. Instead, keyboardist Frank Wilson was recruited into the band, with whom the debut demo "Miss Jane" was made. In 1970, the band signed a contract with Phonograms, a division of Vertigo Records, and began recording their debut album. The Warhorse album was released in November 1970. The song "St. Louis" (a cover of "Easybeats") was released as a single and was most popular with the public. The album itself was also a success, but mostly in continental Europe, in particular in Germany. The band toured extensively for the next year and a half. ...more
