Background: Released in 1967, A Whiter Shade of Pale was the debut album by Procol Harum.

The album reached #26 on the UK album chart and #47 on the U.S. chart.

The album was recorded in mono; all stereo releases are rechanneled (“fake”) stereo.

Allmusic.com gave A Whiter Shade of Pale a 4 star review:

Procol Harum’s debut album is amazingly engaging, considering that it was rushed out to capitalize on the hit title track. The material was all already written (before the hit, in fact), but the group recorded the LP in just two days, simply to get a long-player out, and came up with one of the more pleasingly straightforward releases in their history.
