Our Take

Ah, Procol Harum, the band with the magical name and the even more magical music. Their remastered and expanded edition of "Something Magic" is a journey through time and space, taking listeners on a whimsical ride through the heights of prog-rock glory.

The album kicks off with the title track, a sweeping epic that showcases the band's mastery of both melody and mood. It's a musical odyssey that transports you to another realm, where keyboards reign supreme and guitars sing in harmony.

Tracks like "Skating on Thin Ice" and "Wizard Man" showcase the band's versatility, blending rock, jazz, and classical influences into a seamless tapestry of sound. The instrumentals are lush and captivating, drawing you in with their intricate arrangements and dynamic shifts.

But it's the haunting beauty of songs like "The Worm and the Tree" and "The Mark of the Claw" that truly captivate the soul. Procol Harum's poetic lyrics and emotive vocals create a sense of otherworldly wonder, inviting you to lose yourself in their enchanting world.

Overall, "Something Magic" is a true gem in Procol Harum's discography, a testament to their enduring talent and innovative spirit. So sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you like a wave of pure magic. You won't regret it.

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.
