About

Second album released by Uriah Heep. Recorded in late 1970 in London and released in early 1971. The US edition, just like with the debut album, had a different album cover. Contrary to the first album, "Salisbury" was written mainly by Ken Hensley, who was the band's primary songwriter on most of its releases until his departure in 1980. The album is notable for the band's first attempts at more complex compositions resulting in a 16minute title track. "Salisbury" also features the song Lady In Black, which became one of the most popular songs in the band's history and is still a fan favourite played at Uriah Heep's every show. The album was remastered and released with two bonus tracks in 1996. In 2003, an expanded deluxe edition was released with 7 bonus track. The band's line-up at this time was: David Byron – lead vocals Ken Hensley – slide & acoustic guitar, vocal, piano, harpsichord, organ, vibraphone Mick Box – lead & acoustic guitar, vocals Paul Newton – bass guitar, vocals .
