  • Description

    Esoteric Recordings are proud to announce the release of a newly re-mastered edition of the classic 1969 album "A Salty Dog" by Procol Harum. Released in June 1969, the record followed on from the huge international success of the band's debut single 'A Whiter Shade of Pale', the follow up single 'Homburg' and the superb albums 'Procol Harum' and 'Shine On Brightly'. One of the finest releases of the era, 'A Salty Dog' saw the exquisite song writing of Gary Brooker and Keith Reid honed to perfection on highlights such as the album's title track, 'The Devil Came From Kansas', 'Wreck Of The Hesperus', 'The Milk Of Human Kindness' and more. Recorded at Abbey Road studios, the album captured the excellence of the musicians in the group, namely Gary Brooker (voice, piano), Robin Trower (lead guitar), David Knights (bass guitar), B.J. Wilson (drums) and Matthew Fisher (Hammond organ). Newly re-mastered from the original tapes, this edition of 'A Salty Dog' includes the bonus track, 'Long Gone Geek' (B-side of the single 'A Salty Dog') and a booklet with previously unseen photographs.
