The article begins like this:

"The Lansdowne Tapes is a compilation album by the British rock band Uriah Heep, released in 1993. The recordings featured on the album date from the time before the formation of Uriah Heep."

However, it then further states:

"The rest of the album features material taped by the embryonic Uriah Heep line-ups. It includes several takes of old favourites and previously unreleased tracks that were recorded for the first three albums, all taped during 1969-1971," and, "Originally intended for an album release, these songs were shelved when Ken Hensley became a member of the band in February 1970. His influence gave them a distinctive sound which was marked with a name change to Uriah Heep, in time for their first album ...Very 'Eavy ...Very 'Umble scheduled for May 1970 release."

This information contradicts itself. If the recordings were made between 1969-1971, and they released their first album in May 1970, then, at least SOME of the tracks had to be from after the formation of Uriah Heep, which makes the very first line of the article incorrect.Kaytrox (talk) 15:39, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
