MATTHEW FISHER, founding member of PROCOL HARUM, is forever immortalized for co writing and playing the classic organ on "Whiter Shade Of Pale". Matthew was writer/singer (along with Gary Brooker), organist and producer of Procol's classic "A Salty Dog" album. Matthew also produced ROBIN TROWERS first three albums including the Gold album "Bridge Of Sighs".
"Whiter Shade Of Pale" is the most played track on British Radio ever.
In 1994 Matthew went into the studio and recorded "A Salty Dog Returns" playing all the instruments on the tracks. Out of print for the past decade this album is much sought after by the Fisher/Procol fans.
Now remastered with bonus tracks.
