Both enjoyable songs, though I preferred the Traffic song by a bit. There's so much more to this band than just A Whiter Shade of Pale. Songs contain good ideas, but could be more developed or more enticing for most of them. What's on offer here is the most rocking sound Procol Harum have delivered since Broken Barricades. A little detail to point out at the 3rd paragraph: ''...contemporary style Exotic Birds & Fruit was Procol Harum's seventh studio album, and it's my favorite release of theirs, post-1970's Home .

My favorite song is easily ''The Only One''. There's one song I absolutely HATE because the lyric is simply cringeworthy, but that's nothing new as I don't think there's ever been an album by anyone I could listen to without skipping a track. Procol Harum’s compositions are, like those of almost any other progressive band, theatrical and, for the most part, complex, but, unlike their contemporaries, the band never descends into pointless meandering and the songs never feel overblown. It is their first album in 14 years, and their first not to feature lyrics by Keith Reid Track listing. I'm quite surprised that on this site, the debut Procol Harum currently has a slightly higher rating than Shine On Brightly as I think this album is surely their masterpeice. this time I've covered Strawbs - Grave New World (prog folk, I think I've told you about these fellas) Nagrarok surely is gonna put it on the map when he log in, hopefully tomorrow.
