Rating: - Harum Hurrah !
This ia a great album that deserved to be put on CD a lot sooner. The original album artwork is a plus. Any fan of Procol Harum needs to have this in their collection.
Rating: - Voice Your Choice!
"A Whiter Shade Of Pale" (1967) was a remarkable debut, standing tall even in an era that produced many striking - and classic - debuts. For awhile Procol Harum, with their two keyboard lineup and restrained, trenchant guitar work, were seen as a British equivalent to The Band, though the latter group's star has more or less continued to shine on brightly since its breakup while Procol has been somewhat forgotton aside from their classic debut single. Which is unfortunate, for Procol Harum's influence ... Read More
Rating: - The perfect cd
this is one of the most perfect cds i have ever heard, as far as debuts go, it is second only to the Velvet Underground and Nico. Where has Procol Harum been my whole life? I never heard about them until rolling stone mag celebrated the 40 year anniversary of the summer of love on amazon by listing the 40 essential albums from 1967. this is one of the best cds i have ever listened to, every note is perfect, why weren't these guys more famous?
Rating: - Procol who?
The year of 1967 was an incredible year for music. You had Disraeli Gears, Sgt. Peppers, The Doors, and many other amazing albums. Oh and you also get "A Whiter Shade of Pale" released by Procol Harum. Procol Harum is one of those forgotten bands of the 60's, lost in the big names of the Beatles, Stones, and The Who. But they should not be forgotten and what better way to commemorate them by picking up "A Whiter Shade of Pale" which happens to be one of the finest albums, dare i say, ever made.

Rating: - One of the great rock albums!
Ketih Reid, Procol Harum's lyricist, labels this album the best the group produced, and who am I to disagree? Listening to the album tonight, almost four decades since I was enthralled by the album as a teenager, I am amazed at its durable quality. I listen to only a few rock albums of my youth, but none more than this one. The combination of stunningly vivid and eloquent lyrics, fabulous keyboard and lead guitar playing, and wonderful variations on great themes from classical music make this album one ... Read More
