Procol Harum - Greatest Hits -1967-1977--flac-

This specific title refers to a popular lossless digital compilation often found in audiophile and collector circles, covering the definitive peak decade of Procol Harum (1967–1977). Compilation Overview

• The Robin Trower Factor: It also captures the era before Robin Trower left to pursue his Hendrix-style solo career. His contributions on tracks like "Whaling Stories" show a guitarist who was massively underrated during the psychedelic era.

This decade captures exactly two true radio staples: the aforementioned Bach-derived, organ-drenched opus (1967) and the galloping, orchestral "Conquistador" (1972, live version). The remaining 12-14 tracks—from the pastoral melancholy of "A Salty Dog" to the bitter, piano-driven "The Devil Came from Kansas"—are not "hits." They are survivors . They are the songs that never charted but kept the hardcore fans arguing in dorm rooms about whether Gary Brooker was a greater vocalist than Richard Manuel.
