"Dreamer" by Uriah Heep

Uriah Heep is an English hard rock and heavy metal band that has cranked out 24 albums in their 50+ years together. They've undergone many lineup changes over the years, but still managed to maintain a telltale sound. The band's name comes from a character in the famed novel David Copperfield by Charles Dickens.

Uriah Heep scored only a single Top 40 hit in the US when "Easy Livin'" reached #39 in 1972. I'm surprised that a song like "Dreamer," which kicked off their follow-up album, "Sweet Freedom," failed to bring the band greater attention in the US.
