Notes:

Head First was the 15th studio album from British rock band Uriah Heep. It was released in 1983, on Gerry Bron's UK label Bronze Records. The album was recorded by the line-up responsible for the previous year's Abominog, but this time with a greater proportion of the songs written by the band members.

However, Bob Daisley left the group shortly after the album's recording to rejoin Ozzy Osbourne. Though Head First was deemed to be a worthy successor to Abominog, it suffered from a lack of promotion as Bronze went into liquidation the month after its release.

Head First was remastered and reissued in 1997 with four bonus tracks:

11. Playing For Time (B-side)
12. Searching (Instrumental Out-Take)
13. The Wizard (Live Version)

Reissued again in 2005 with the following bonus tracks:

11. Playing For Time (B-side)
12. Searching (Extended Demo Version)
13. Other Side Of Midnight (Live Version)
14. Lonely Nights (Live Version)
15. Angel (Live Version)
