 Today is one year since the day Ken Hensley passed away. 

Every rock fan knows him as the lead singer, organ and second-guitar player for Uriah Heep, on all their classic '70s albums. He wrote or co-wrote most of the songs of the classic British hard rock legends. He was an outstanding singer, taking the lead vocals on tracks such as "Lady In Black", "Easy Livin'" and "Stealin'", as well as "Look at Yourself" and "Free Me".
