Description
This captivating collection showcases Procol Harum’s evolution across the 1970s, blending their signature baroque pop with progressive and art rock textures. Recorded for French, British, and German television broadcasts, these performances capture the band in full flight — from the haunting elegance of “A Salty Dog” to the theatrical flair of “Grand Hotel.”
The set highlights their versatility, with early classics like “Conquistador” and “Repent Walpurgis” sitting alongside later gems such as “Pandora’s Box” and “Wizard Man.” Of course, “A Whiter Shade of Pale” makes its obligatory appearance, but the surrounding material proves just as compelling.
A must-have for fans of live archival releases, this CD offers a rich sonic journey through Procol Harum’s golden era — atmospheric, virtuosic, and steeped in European broadcast history.
