Mathew Fisher"s Salty Goodbye
On this album,Mathew Fisher was given his head to spin an Procol LP his way!The result is their most eclectic and democratic album yet as Trower and Fisher combine with Reid, (aa well as Gary Brooker), to write a variety of songs never to be repeated by Procol Harum again.Each song is a gem and the string arrangements are superb. Sadly this would be the swan song for Fisher.

Great Album!
What a great Album this is! A salty dog was release in june of 1969.
A salty dog was a UK hit single with a tremendous orchestral collaborations.
When this album was release Matthew Fisher{organ} and Dave Knights{bass}had departed.
I think A salty dog is an incredible Album with a beatiful well writing songs like A salty dog-The milk of human kindness-too much between us-Boredom and heavy rock in The devil came from Kansas and the you can hear some of the blues in Juicy John Pink.the rest of the songs are good this album is a relic.

This is anything but a dog
Buy this..put it in the cd player..press track 1 and then press repeat. 'Nuff said. A Salty Dog is an orchestrated classic. Up there with Eleanor Rigby for the sheer atmospheric grandeur of the track. One of the great 60s moments.

this album's no dog !
Procul Harum fascinated me as a teenager.This Album and the Whiter Shade of Pale single have rarely been bettered by any artist.Their mystique and pure musical genius are sadly ignored by critics when ranking all time great groups.

A Quiet Understated Masterpiece
This, the third effort by the Neo-Romantic masters of rock, Procol Harum, is a quiet, understated classic. Less thunderous than in their previous outing, Shine On, A Salty Dog provides more nuanced and melodic aural delights. Matthew Fisher and Robin Trower each step out into the spotlight to take on additional vocal and arranging responsibilities, and the results are pleasing, especially from Fisher. Keith Reid once again produces intelligent and metaphoric wordplays. The title track remains one of the most enduring and moving moments in rock.
