Mick Box has played in Uriah Heep for more than 50 years, and his wah-heavy, feel-driven leads, trading lines with Ken Hensley's Hammond organ, helped define early-'70s heavy rock. He is often overlooked next to his peers, but his emotive solos on songs like 'July Morning' and 'Salisbury' are loved by fans.
