I'm listening to Salisbury by Uriah Heep, probably released 1971-01 or 1971-02 in the UK and/or the US.

This album has an especially confusing release history. It had different album covers and track listings in the US and UK, and it was released (in the UK) by one label (Vertigo), then rereleased by another (Bronze) within its original year of release. So, I'm not too confident about the accuracy of the information in the standard sources.
