URIAH HEEP + CHICKEN SHACK
Description
Scarce and highly collectible original first printing concert poster advertising English rock band
Uriah Heep
at the Schwarzwaldhalle in Karlsruhe [Germany] on Saturday, 25th March, 1978, presented by Interteam Tour Promotion, and with
Stan Webb’s Chicken Shack
and
Satin Whale
as special guests. The concert in Karlsruhe was part of an eight-date German tour during March and April, in support of the
Innocent Victim
album, commencing at the Stadthalle in Bremerhaven on 20th March and ending at the Ostseehalle in Kiel on 4th April, 1978. It was the band’s second German tour within a few months, having already toured extensively in January. Recorded at Roundhouse Recording Studios in London and produced by Gerry Bron, the album was released in November 1977 by Bronze Records. It was the band’s eleventh album and the second to feature new vocalist John Lawton, replacing David Byron for the recording of the
Firefly
album. Although the album failed to chart in the US or UK,
Innocent Victim
was highly successful in Europe, selling well over 1 million copies in Germany alone. The single “Free Me”, written by Ken Hensley, was a #1 hit in New Zealand.
The poster measures 83.7 x 59.1 cm (approx. 33″ by 23.2″ inches) and is beautifully printed in yellow and red inks on thin, smooth-finish uncoated paper stock. Light sporadic edge wear to the bottom border, else in excellent unfolded condition.
