	Vinyl Records "Procol Harum Albums"
		The roots of Procol Harum are in a live band led by Gary Brooker and Robin Trower called The Paramounts, popular performers in the early 1960s.
		Procol Harum produced a unique sound that emphasized Brooker's melancholy vocals and an evocative mix of his classically-trained piano, Fisher's elegant, church-like organ, and Trower's searing guitar licks, along with frequent fl humour and a penchant for unpredictable experimentation.
		The group often combined the two into a brilliantly dynamic fusion, but by 1972 the disparities in style became too great; the end of an era was marked for Procol, with the release of their fifth album Broken Barricades, and subsequent departure of Trower to form his own power trio band.

	Procul Harum - Memorable Music Hall of Fame (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Procol Harum is arguably the most successful "accidental" group creation — that is, a band originally assembled to take advantage of the success of a record created in the studio — in the history of progressive rock.
		By the time this recording is ready for release, The Pinewoods have been rechristened Procol Harum, a name derived, as alternate stories tell it, either from Stevens' cat's birth certificate, Procol Harun, or a Latin "procul" for "far from these things" (hey, it was the mid-1960s, and either is possible).
		In England, Procol Harum Live with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra only rose to number 48 in May of 1972, but it was competing with a reissue of the group's debut album (retitled A Whiter Shade of Pale, with the single added) paired with A Salty Dog, which outperformed it considerably, reaching number 26.

		Procul Harum fans from all over the world are arranging trips to Lejre to attend both concerts by the DR Concert Orchestra and Procul Harum on 19 and 20 August in the grounds of Ledreborg Palace.
		Their repertoire will consist exclusively of Procul Harum numbers; in the past they have performed with such authenticity that they have released a succession of CDs with different band members each time.
		What is bringing fans to Ledreborg from abroad is a unique opportunity to see Procul Harum perform at a grand-scale symphony concert of the kind the group has only given on a handful of previous occasions, none of them in Scandinavia.

		Procul Harum arose phoenix-like from the remnants of the Paramounts- a Southend group who had a minor chart placing during 1964 with their remake version of the Coaster's 'Poison Ivy'.
		After creating their first material, Brooker set about putting together a new band to play it and Procul Harum was born.
		Procul Harum's first release was a smash hit reaching #1 in the UK and #5 in the USA.

		Procol Harum went through many changes and released many fine albums until finally splitting in 1977.
		This performance certainly proves that Procol Harum are still able to provide that spark of magic that some bands search for but are never likely to find.
		Also contained in the extras section of this DVD is footage of rehearsals and interviews with the various band members.

	Procol Harum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Procol Harum are an English progressive rock band, formed in the 1960s.
		Procol Harum produced a unique sound that emphasized Brooker's melancholy vocals and an evocative mix of his eclectic piano, Fisher's elegant, church-like organ, Wilson's dramatic drumming and Trower's searing guitar licks, along with frequent fl humour and a penchant for unpredictable experimentation.
		Musically, Procol Harum was split during all these years between Trower's guitar-driven blues rock style (that was often compared to Eric Clapton or Hendrix) and Brooker's and Fisher's structured classical rock sound.

		Procol Harum is a British progressive rock band, formed in the 1960s.
		Some of the roots of Procol Harum are in a live band led by Gary Brooker and Robin Trower called The Paramounts, popular performers in the early 1960s.
		At Olympic Studios, with session drummer (and non-Paramount) Bill Eyden and producer Denny Cordell, the group recorded "A Whiter Shade of Pale." The song was officially released on May 12, 1967.

	Channel4.com - SlashMusic - Procol Harum
		Best known for the timeless "Whiter Shade of Pale," Procol Harum is generally regarded as a progenitor of the '70s prog-rock boom.
		In the late '60s, the group (led by singer/keyboardist Gary Brooker) combined British pop with classical-influenced motifs and intellectual lyrics (courtesy of non-performing lyricist/band member Keith Reid).
		By the '70s, the Procol Harum sound became more complex and sophisticated, closer to that of the prog-rockers they'd initially inspired.

	Procol Harum - Beyond the Pale
		Launched in October 1997, 'Beyond the Pale' is run by fans, for fans: to help them get in touch with each other, and to share facts and opinions about the music and its players.
		It is an independent website, without commercial sponsors or ties to any other Procol Harum fan organisation, nor to the band itself...
		Like the band, this Procol Harum website offers no gimmicks, but relies on the material to speak for itself.

		But the Best of Procol Harum [A&M] is the earliest collection (original released as vinyl in 1973 and as CD in 1990).
		Listen carefully to the dialogue track of the Jimi Hendrix Live at the Winterland (circa 1968) and you will hear that this song was played (via LP) before introduction of Jimi and other members of the Experience on the stage began.
		Another thing that distinguishes this CD from other collection issues is the track "Conquistador" which is a live version taken from Procol Harum Live at Edmonton, Canada in 1972.

	Procol Harum
		I mean, while I sorely lament the death of Procol Harum's "pure," "organic" keyboard interplay that came from the mix of the Hammond and Piano, Solley's synths are used fairly sparingly, and don't really affect the album one way or the other.
		Yes, Procol Harum decided it was time for one more stab at epic bombast, and while I've never been that much of a fan of In Held Twas in I, it's a friggin' masterpiece compared to The Worm and the Tree.
		Why Procol Harum decided to rise from the dead twelve years after their "comeback" is beyond me, but I'm rather glad they did - at least now they have a chance to end on a decent note, rather than on that Prodigal Stranger garbage.

	Interview With Robin Trower
		He was a founding member of Procul Harum, was one of the most widely acclaimed solo artists of the 70s and 80s and took what are now considered Classic Albums like "Bridge of Sighs" and "For Earth Below" to the Top Ten in the mid 70s.
		- Before there was Procul Harum, there was The Paramounts, of which you were a part.
		I was on the same bill as him in Germany when I was in Procul Harum.

		Recorded at the Union Chapel in Islington, London, on December 12, 2003, this program features a live performance by Procol Harum, one of the most popular prog rock bands of the late 1960s.
		The group landed at the top of the charts all over the world with their hit "A Whiter Shade of Pale." Melding thoughtful lyrics and an artfulness many of their of their peers lacked with heavy drums and guitar, the band still has retained a large, devoted fan base.
		This concert finds Procol Harum performing some of the best songs of their 40-year career, including "A Salty Dog," "Whisky Train," "Shine on Brightly," and many more.

	Most Played Record In UK Named
		The chart was compiled by the British performing rights group PPL (the Phonographic Performance Ltd) who took in data from 70 years of radio, club, shop and jukebox plays to find out which song got the most airing (from its original release through to recent exposure) from 1957 until 1994.
		Surprisingly Procol Harum's 1967 single ‘A Whiter Shade of Pale’ hit the top spot, beating Queen's ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ into second place.
		At time of writing, no representative for Freddie Mercury has come forward to defend the Queen singer’s blatant and unreasonable attempt to hype his song into the top ten by dropping dead of AIDS.

		During the prayer the organ part from "Whiter Shade of Pale" came on and it synched up pretty well with what was going on.
		It's a very organ-heavy group, if you don't know Procul Harum, so there was a neat atmosphere around the whole meal.

		It wasn't until the 1980 Victims of the Fury album, seven years into his solo career, that Robin Trower would employ former Procul Harum bandmate Keith Reid to provide lyrics (with Reid probably the only lyricist in history to get band status).
		Though this is officially a Robin Trower release entitled B.L.T., the marquee giving Jack Bruce and...
		The vocals are all the work of Bruce with the production by Trower, and a moment like "Won't Let You Down" is among the best for both the vocalist of Cream and the guitar player from Procol Harum.
