Usikkerheden skyldes at [[guitar]]ist [[K. K. Downing]] og [[El-bas|bassist]] [[Ian Hill]] dannede bandet Freight i 1969, men først fandt deres forsanger og nye navn i 1970.<ref name="metallum-more" />.
Den bedst kendte besætning består af Downing, Hill, sanger [[Rob Halford]] og guitarist [[Glenn Tipton]] – som sammen med trommeslageren [[Scott Travis]] også er bandets nuværende opstilling.
