Henry Scott-Irvine: Procol Harum - The Ghosts Of A Whiter Shade Of Pale

Henry Scott-Irvine: Procol Harum - The Ghosts Of A Whiter Shade Of Pale

Procol Harum's extraordinary career now spans almost 50 years. This major biography traces their roots back to 1964 when they were an R&B covers band called The Paramounts whom The Rolling Stones cited as their favourite British group at the time.With its song writing partnership of Keith Reid and Gary Brooker, the new band would soon become associated with a particularly soulful brand of progressive rock and enjoy a massive international hit with ?A Whiter Shade of Pale? in the summer of 1967. A succession of Billboard Top 100 albums followed but Procol Harum?s future would also be marked by a 14-year retirement, a successful re-formation and one of the costliest and most bitterly fought cases in British legal history.With specially written material by Martin Scorsese, Sir Alan Parker and author Sebastian Faulks, the book?s stellar list of interviewees includes the band members themselves, producer Chris Thomas, Cream?s Pete Brown and Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page. Their insights illuminate what must surely be the gold standard biography of a unique and highly influential band.

Michael Bradley: Teenage Kicks - My Life As An Undertone

Michael Bradley: Teenage Kicks - My Life As An Undertone

In the summer of 1974, Michael Bradley joined his school friend's band in Derry, Northern Ireland. At the time, they had two guitarists and no singer. Four years later, with Bradley providing the driving bass rhythm, The Undertones released 'Teenage Kicks' and were propelled to fame. The fascinating story behind the song, the band and the man are told in Teenage Kicks - My Life As An Undertone . With a punk rock attitude that produced John Peel's favourite record, and one of the most enduring rock songs ever, The Undertones went on to make some poor decisions, great albums, all while having a fantastic time. Breaking up in 1983, Michael became a bicycle courier in Soho, before 1999's reformation brought him back to play bass with the band once again. The story is bitter-sweet, heart-warming and occasionally droll, featuring unlikely success, petty feuds and playful mischief during five years of growing up in the music industry. Always intriguing and told in Bradley 's unique style, Teenage Kicks - My Life As An Undertone is a must-read for any fan of this legendary band.
