Firing from Uriah Heep

There is considerable dispute regarding the reason for Thain being sacked from Uriah Heep; while it has been claimed by manager Gerry Bron that it was due to his unreliability from drug use, it followed directly after the publishing of an interview in which Thain was harshly critical of the band's management and their lack of sympathy to his need to fully recuperate from his (nearly fatal) electrocution injuries. This should be reflected in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.166.198.190 (talk) 15:05, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Book

There is a biographical book about Gary on the market since 2009, written by former Austrian girlfriend Sonja Wagner, "Gary Thain - Meister der tiefen Töne". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:45:4905:A1F1:DCA0:5693:A420:DA69 (talk) 18:50, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In that book, the author clearly states that Thain did not die from a heroin overdose as she was handed out the documents after his death.

-== Singles mentioned in article ==
-I'm looking at the list of singles mentioned in the article, and they don't seem to be in line with Thain's location or age. The early singles listed are early 60's and he would have only been 15 -17 years old, playing unaccredited singles with American artists, including a chick band from Cleveland, Ohio?
