4.0 out of 5 stars An impressive second effort, October 17, 1999

Salisbury is just the second album from this legendary band and is a staggering improvement over the first. The collection of songs is dominated by the sixteen-minute title track, a monumental achievement in progressive rock which looks more and more impressive with the passage of the years, and "Lady in Black" the memorable acoustic singalong ballad that went on to become one of the bands most well-known and requested songs. A fine album whose only real drawback may be that with only six songs (seven in the remaster) it leaves Heep fans wanting more. The scary thing is that the band had yet to really hit their stride.

simon the bullet freak was on the original--in america, at least. that wouldn't make it a bonus track, but it sure as hell is an interesting infectious song!

I recently purchased Salisbury on CD. I have had it for many years on LP. IT was one of those albums that my friends and I listened to when we were young with doobie. It has some really excellent moments on it, in my opinion more than their other albums. There may be a couple of songs I skip over such as Bird of Prey but others like The Park, Simon the Bullet Freak, and of course Salisbury are not to be missed.
I recommend this album to any Uriah Heep fan.
I do prefer the cover art that was on the original American release but that is just because it is what I am used to seeing. The music is the same and it is pure magic head food.
