Salisbury is the second album released by British rock band Uriah Heep. More squarely in the progressive rock genre than their debut album from the previous year, it featured their first foray into large–scale composition, with the 16–minute title track featuring a 24–piece orchestra. It also includes the largely acoustic ballad "Lady In Black", a perennial fan favorite, played in concert by the band to this day.
