The album was recorded by the classic lineup of David Byron (lead vocals), Mick Box (guitar), Ken Hensley (keyboards, guitar, primary songwriter), Gary Thain (bass), and Lee Kerslake (drums). This formation is widely regarded as one of the strongest and most creative in Uriah Heep’s history, responsible for defining much of the band’s signature sound.
