Background notes

Archive material and source history

Heir Apparent came out of Seattle in the 1980s playing progressive metal. Their debut album in 1984 included the song 'Alone Again,' which became a notable track for them. They followed it with 'Graceful Inheritance' in 1986 and 'One Small Voice' in 1990.

The band's lineup featured Terry Brock on vocals, Paul Davidson on guitar, Derrick Davis on bass, and Scott Olmstead on drums. They put out a reunion album called 'The View from Below' in 2018. Other songs in their catalog include 'Another Candle,' 'Cry For Rome,' and 'Decorated.'

Internal conflicts and legal disputes over royalties affected the group over time. Guitarist Paul Davidson died, and Terry Brock dealt with mental health issues. Their music, particularly from those early Seattle years, still finds listeners in metal circles.
