Procol Harum - Procol's Ninth (1975)

 

The eighth album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a quintet with a line-up of drums, bass, guitars, piano, organ and vocals.

The band regarded their 1972 live album as a proper album. Hence they naming their eighth studio album as their ninth album. Confusing but thankfully explained well enough by the band.

Procol's Ninth clocks in at forty minutes.

The music is a blend of folk rock and psych rock.

The music is songs orientated and dominated by Gary Brooker's very good vocals.

The music is this time meandering and a bit on the workman like end of the spectrum.

The music is also mid-tempo.

There are no good songs here. This is a decent enough album but nothing more than that. This is the weakest of their eight albums.
