Our Take

Ah, Procol Harum, the psychedelic pioneers who brought us the timeless classic "A Whiter Shade of Pale." So, when I popped on their second album, "Shine On Brightly," I expected nothing but pure musical bliss - and boy, did they deliver.

From the opening track, "Quite Rightly So," the band grabs you by the eardrums and doesn't let go. The swirling organ solos and haunting vocals transport you to a world where rock meets orchestral grandeur in a beautiful collision of sound.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. Tracks like "Rambling On" and "In Held 'Twas In I" take you on a dark, twisted journey through the depths of the human psyche. It's like a musical rollercoaster that leaves you exhilarated and slightly disoriented by the end.

And let's not forget the epic title track, "Shine On Brightly," a 17-minute opus that showcases the band's impeccable musicianship and songwriting prowess. It's a sonic masterpiece that will leave you in awe of Procol Harum's unparalleled talent.

So, if you're looking for an album that will challenge your musical sensibilities and take you on a mind-bending journey, then look no further than "Shine On Brightly." Procol Harum have truly outdone themselves with this one, and I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next.

About the artist

Procol Harum

Procol Harum: The Whimsical Wizards of Rock and Roll If there's one band that defines the term "eclectic", it's Procol Harum. These quintessentially British blokes burst onto the scene in the late 1960s with their iconic hit "A Whiter Shade of Pale", a song that's as trippy as a David Lynch film and as haunting as a ghost story told around a campfire. Led by the enigmatic Gary Brooker, Procol Harum's music is a delightful mishmash of baroque pop, psychedelic rock, and good old-fashioned rhythm and blues. With their classically-inspired melodies and Brooker's soulful vocals, they've managed to carve out a niche for themselves in the ever-evolving landscape of rock and roll. But don't let their whimsical sound fool you - these guys are serious musicians. Just listen to their album "A Salty Dog" and you'll hear the intricate arrangements, poetic lyrics, and masterful musicianship that set them apart from their peers. It's no wonder they've been praised by everyone from music critics to fellow rock legends. And let's not forget their legendary live performances. Procol Harum is known for putting on a show that's equal parts spectacle and musical virtuosity. From Brooker's mesmerizing stage presence to the band's tight-knit chemistry, every second of their concert is a testament to their enduring talent and showmanship. So whether you're a die-hard Procol Harum fan or a newcomer to their enchanting sound, one thing's for sure: these whimsical wizards of rock and roll are here to stay. So sit back, relax, and let the magic of Procol Harum wash over you. You won't regret it, mate.
