| | Procol Harum Exotic Birds And Fruit CD Procol Harum Discography of CDs
By the time of this, its eighth album, in 1974, Procol Harum had weathered the departure of several key members. The band's previous release, GRAND HOTEL, was its first after the departure of guitarist Robin Trower. EXOTIC BIRDS & FRUIT is a more polished affair and a return to form for the band.
The songs by pianist/singer Gary Brooker and lyricist Keith Reid possess the thrilling tensions that result from combining grandeur and lushness with R&B-based soulfulness. As always, drummer B.J. Wilson is a powerful yet unassuming presence, with a signature style that adds just the right amount of flair to the propulsiveness. The set is full of memorable songs, including the powerful opening number, "Nothing But the Truth," the cabaret-like "Beyond the Pale," and the anthemic and relentless "The Idol."
Digitally remastered and expanded edition of the British band's 1974 album including two bonus tracks. Stylish packaging includes a 20-page booklet, rare photos and memorabilia plus extensive sleevenotes by Procol expert and respected author Patrick Humphries with contributions from band members. 11 tracks.

Salvo. 2009.
Even fans call this one "Something Tragic." There are still hints of the tight ensemble playing that characterizes the best of Procol's Chrysalis albums, but most of the first side is dreary, uninspired stuff. While the title track captures some of the drama of early Procol, Brooker's distinctive voice is the sole link to their former glory on indifferent cuts like "Wizard Man." ("Strangers in Space" later appeared on the Brooker-produced The Long Good-bye: The Symphonic Music of Procol Harum.) "The Worm & The Tree" is a side-long extravagance, the first time the band had produced a work of this length since "In Held 'Twas I," on the 1968 release, Shine on Brightly. ...
