"Dear "Dime Members",
when i first started the UHDP(URIAH HEEP DIME PROJECT)a little over a month ago or so,
it was inspired mostly by 3 people. Federico(Blacklarbot), Konstantinos(Maratos) & Iain(Matoman).
Maratos & Matoman are like myself, both big UH fans and collectors,
but it was the success of Blacklarbot's SABBATH DIME PROJECT(SDP) that made me realize that if did the same thing with Uriah Heep,
and shared as many of the good recordings in my collection that i could,
then maybe like with all the Sabbath collectors,
someone would come forward with a rare and wonderful "uncirculated" UH recording.
And amazingly enough someone did!"
REMEMBER READING THOSE WORDS A FEW WEEKS BACK??
Well that same group of great people who shared 2 of the rarest Uriah Heep recordings with us have decided to share more of their recordings here on Dime.
So inspired by these words every week by "Team Lampinski"-Always remember - "the more generous you are with your music, the more it comes back to you".
With that in mind we now present the WILLIAM TELL EDITIONS(WTE).
"William Tell" is the name of the person who is providing the recordings and transfers of his various friends in the "European Taping Community".
Several tapers including "William Tell" himself have recorded a wide range of various artists from the 70's, 80's and beyond.
It is these recordings we would like to dedicate to Dan Lampinski and his "Team" for all they shared with us.
And with that in mind i implore those that still have such "treasures" tucked away,
to please consider sharing them the way these generous people have.
None of us are getting any younger and what good will any of your recordings be when your dead.
So Ladies & Gentleman, Boys & Girls, Brothers & Sisters
For your entertainment & "earjoyment"
I present to you;
