Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released exactly fifty years after their iconic debut single 'A Whiter Shade of Pale', the twelfth and final studio album from the British progressive rock veterans continues their elegant musical legacy. The tracking eschews complex progressive epics in favor of concise, bluesy pop-rock structures anchored by Gary Brooker's soulful vocals and prominent piano accompaniment. Notably, it is the band's first album not to feature lyrics from founding member Keith Reid.
