Procol Harum - "Shine on Brightly"


Procol Harum - Shine on Brightly (1968)

Though they're best known for the dreamy and somber Whiter Shade of Pale, this album as a whole is a keeper. Some selections...


Shine on Brightly - the music is a good reflection of the lyrics (the brief piano piece around 2:00 is cloud9)


Skip Softly (My Moonbeams)


Homburg - their first charted single

Nice pick. Haven't heard this in ages.

Interesting to note a rather subdued Robin Trower and that this set of original members would only record one more album together.



Music for adventurous listeners

I didn't realize that. Thanks! I consider one response to my threads a winner these days, but when that response is from The Dr., it's a real party. smile

I should note that the album Shine on Brightly was their second release and only included Homburg in later releases. The original artwork...
