Unlike
their first album, songwriting credits for fully half of the record
were attributed to Ken Hensley alone, as opposed to the debut's
collaborative partnership of frontman David Byron and guitarist Mick
Box. Soon after the release, drummer Keith Baker left the band, replaced
by Ian Clark (from another Vertigo band, Cressida). With Clark, the
band embarked on their first US tour, supporting Three Dog Night and
Steppenwolf.
Salisbury is skewed toward the progressive rock genre,
with its 16-minute title track featuring a 24-piece orchestra and was
also significant for Hensley's instant rise to a position as main
composer of the group's music.
The front cover of the album depicted a
British Chieftain tank, which connects to the title, as Salisbury Plain
in Wiltshire, England, is a military training area. The original LP
release was a gatefold sleeve, with a black-and-white image of the
underside of a Chieftain tank on the inside with the turret facing the
rear, over which were printed Hensley's comments on each track. Later
reissues would be in a single sleeve. The American release on Mercury
Records featured a different cover image (a man tearing out of his own
skin), as did the original Canadian pressings. Subsequent Canadian
pressings used the UK artwork.
