Procol guitarist Richard Brown: BtP interview

'… all of the songs were brand new when I first heard them …'


Claes Johansen's Procol biography, Beyond the Pale (order it from Amazon USA or from Amazon UK), offered most Procoholics the first inkling that anyone had played guitar in Procol Harum before the days of Ray Royer. This was Richard Brown, about whom a recent article in The Brechin Advertiser revealed more background.

Now, in vivid detail, Richard fills in that 1967 background again, in this four-part BtP interview:

Part 1 Reminiscences: repertoire ... Reid ... Part 2 Prospects with the band
Part 3 Rehearsing with Morris and Wilson Part 4 Fisher in, Brown out: and the living-conditions chez Guy Stevens
