Album Description
Available in:
A Salty Dog is an album by the rock band Procol Harum, released in June 1969. Having an ostensibly nautical theme, as indicated by its cover (a pastiche of the famous Player's Navy Cut cigarette pack), interspersed with straight rock, blues and pop items A Salty Dog showed a slight change of direction from its predecessors, being thematically less obscure. The title track itself was the first Procol track to use an orchestra, as would be referred to in the live album performance some three years later. The musical tensions between the group and Robin Trower were beginning to show in this album, and although his guitar sound remains integral to most of the tracks, Crucifiction Lane (featuring a rare Trower vocal), in retrospect, shows that Trower was already moving in a different direction from the rest of the band. Still this album is much more musically varied than the two previous albums, with 3 Fisher vocals and 1 by Trower.
Gary Brooker: vocals, piano, celeste, three stringed guitar, bells, harmonica, recorder, wood
Robin Trower: lead guitar, vocals (track 9), acoustic guitar, sleigh tambourine

B.J. Wilson: drums, conga drums, tabla
Matthew Fisher: organ, vocals (tracks 5, 7, 10), marimba, acoustic guitar, piano, recorder, rhythm guitar
