Spent many an hour listening to Mr. Kerslake. A good solid rock n roll drummer. Another one of my childhood heroes gone. No too many of the good ones left anymore. RIP.

My favourite Heep track - CH you should try the album 'Demons and Wizards'. Incidentally this track contains one of the best recordings of an acoustic guitar I have ever heard - and this was in the early seventies - magnificent stuff - play it LOUD - https://youtu.be/Mki3xYnStUM
