Ken Hensley, Mick Box, Paul Newton, David Byron, Nigel "Ollie" Olsson.
It was three quarters into the recording of the album that drummer Alex Napier was replaced by Nigel (Ollie) Olsson, who had been recommended to David Byron by Elton John. David Byron had been friends with Elton since the days they both worked for Avenue Records, recording low budget Top Thirty covers, and, now, with the bespectacled one's first album completed, the drummer was hence free to join Heep and finish the record off. ... VERY 'EAVY ... VERY 'UMBLE ( packaged differently for the US and simply titled URIAH HEEP ) was released on June 19, 1970.
