Uriah Heep - Salisbury

[@adrianwort]

I first heard this as a teenager in the 70s, and I have never heard anything else that comes close, such an emotive piece of music it brought tears to my eyes then and it still does now, feel so lucky to have heard all the 70s music, the best decade by far.

[@nyiar9599]

Have you heard tarkus, tubular bells, close to the edge, suppers ready or other long songs from the 70s or 60s cause there are a lot of great songs from that time which are very long.

[@adrianwort]

@@nyiar9599 Quite agree, an unbelievably productive time for music, glad I was there!

[@nyiar9599]

@@adrianwort well you are lucky as hell jajaja. I'm 19 years old and live in Spain so i just know a few people how listen to just normal rock or metal. But to find someone that likes prog rock it's almost impossible. I'm happy that you could live on those times.

[@joersant.9550]

Hi all people. Music have always been a big part of my life, since I was going in first class, most of my friends was like me. As a norwegian I have always been a big fan of the british rock bands, like Deep Purple, Slade, Rolling Stones, Beatles, it's so many of them. But my favourite band was Uriah Heep, Pilgrim, Return to fantasy, July morning, and of course Salisbury, fantastic music.

Heep is one of those bands that made you think as their lyrics told a story. I like a good story and even more so when the backdrop is a group of guys kicking the ass of each instrument, respectively.

[@CoreaKixx420]

One of my best friends John Kinahan, introduced me to some of the best bands back then including Led Zeppelin, Slade, Queen , Status Quo, and Uriah Heep. The man has great taste in music. Take care wherever you may be John, and good health to you, from your one time next door neighbor, Tim.

Those who think that Uriah Heep was just a hard rock band, or a "sub-Deep Purple" should listen to this track and to the whole album... Uriah Heep were very versatile in their early years and I wish they had gone on in this way... Doing this album after Very 'Eavy Very 'Umble was really courageous, it was a progressive rock album with touches of psychedelism and hard rock... with already a wonderful works on harmony vocals here and there. I just wish they had used strings instead of just brass and woodwinds for this track.

[@andykilvington1651]

Agree, massively under rated and a very clever band. Never got the accolades of Purple, Zeppelin, Sabbath etc, but in many ways they were musically far more complex than them all. Top UK band, should have achieved so much more success - although at Mote Park a couple of years ago they were simply sensational.

[@Marctull66]

@@andykilvington1651 Actually, they achieved a lot of success but it didn't last. I read from many soources that circa 1972-1977, they sold around 30 millions albums worldwide. I'm not fond of the AOR rock era in the 80's, but since then, they did really strong albums, although there's a big gap during the late 90's, early 2000's. I do like all the recent albums since the great Sea of Light (1995), especially the latest from 2018, Living the Dream

[@dionmcgee5610]

They may have been going by the old mantra that rock groups couldn't use strings in their songs. Sounds like macho BS but it was a "thing" and I'm sure many men.(and some women) strongly believed it. Probably poser Beatles haters with fragile egos and suppressed homosexual tendencies.

[@storozhakovgregory3032]

I think this track actually preceded Child in Time, which resembles Salisbury hugely. I never understood why so few people noticed it. Child in Time was great, but it doesn't beat Salisbury in richness, nuances and overall message. An probably even in terms of musicianship.

[@Whiteshirtloosetie]

I rememnber at Letchworth College sadly no longer there we were asked to bring in music albums of our favorite tracks. I bought this one in and played and others weren't ready for it.

[@wasjaprjanikow412]

@@vladymyrst.6063 Я встал на начало пути. Спустя полжизни, наверное. Пару месяцев назад открыл для себя рок 70х, когда тебя в такие крутые группы не взяли бы, если не умеешь виртуозно играть на интсрументах джаз и блюз, т.е. уметь импровизировать. Когда мне это объяснили такие толковые люди как Рыбин, игравший в группе с Цоем (если я правильно понял) и Дмитрий Юрьевич Пучков, к которому Рыбин не раз приходил на опрос, тут меня и прорвало, как говориться. Начал с группы Uriah Heep, впечатлила песня July Morning. Прослушал все их песни и скачал штук 20! Ютуб выдал Дип Пёрпл "Чайлд ин Тайм" - офигеть! Затем попал на записи живых концертов ДП - потрясно! Это не записанный альбом, они на сцене так отрываются и импровизируют - обалдеть!!! Выкладываются на 100! Если я примеряю их "музыкальный костюм" на другие песни и стили, то можно 95% музыки забраковать и выкинуть без сожаления! Если наслаждаться, то именно ДП, Юрайя и им подобными. Может, лет через 20 дорасту до понимания классики. ПС: Я заядлый технарь более 30 лет! Эта музыка для меня понятна, я сам миксовал в начале 2000х на компе, поэтому представляю техно-мелодии визуально. А рок... Звук гитары для меня был почему-то блювотным, не переносил игры дворовых пацанов. Но вот пришло время окунуться в этот мир! И знаешь - круто! Я счастлив встать на этот путь. Групп много, но я знаю принцип отбора, который будет как файерволл на компе отметать мусор!

[@twikiriwhi]

[Verse 4] There's a line in a rhyme I was going to send to you It says, "All that is to be will surely be" So oh, though you had to go Cause you needed someone new Is there still a chance That you'll come back to me? I want you back, you see [Chorus] Alone again, how could you leave me? Alone again, I don't wanna be Alone again, yeah! [Instrumental break 11:19-14:33] [Guitar solo] [Verse 5] Somewhere in your eyes That very special glow Something drawing me To where I do not know I never really thought That I would lose myself Now I'm going faster than anybody else You moved without a sound And touched me with your hand Just like the rains that fondle Every little grain of sand This thing we're gonna do It's just for you and me And I'm gonna make it good Just you wait and see Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh

The lyrics were very poignant for me 20 years after this was recorded. I have been a fan for 50 years.

Only a legend. Forever

I always enjoy hearing this piece. It's pretty impressive stuff. The critics used to savagely rip this band, but I feel many of those comments were quite unfair.

[@tonycaniggia]

rather, completely unfair

[@siddhartino]

critics should learn to shut their mohth once for all

[@susannepotens5895]

Your so right...i feel about this work, that no one else have done something that comes even close to this...and they where that young ....to Hell with CRITICS

[@stefanodellavalle3988]

Critics always bash good things.. after all you do the critic only if you are a talentless useless fool

[@tonylocke3010]

The only bad music is stuff nobody likes. You like Salisbury...that is all that matters! I was a fan of Heep back in the 70's and still am, but I reckon salisbury was the Heep at their very best.

Best mix of band & orchestra EVER!!!! They sound like one unit!!!! Not separate like most band & orchestra songs sound. The orchestra sounds like they’re in the band! Ken is the greatest!

[@susannepotens5895]

@@armstronglance you are so right, and they were that young...Ken was a genius
