Procol Harum - BBC Sessions, Volume 4: In Concert, Golders Green Hippodrome, London, Britain, 3-30-1974

Here's the next Procol Harum BBC album. Like the last one, it's a full concert. There's one more to go after this, another full concert from the 1970s.

This one takes place four years after the last BBC concert. In the meantime, they'd released three albums, so the song list is pretty different. The concert took place shortly before the release of the album "Exotic Birds and Fruit," so songs from that one are particularly featured.

The concert has the same format as the last one, in which the BBC DJ did all the talking between songs. Last time, that was John Peel, and this time it's Bob Harris. 

Also like last time, it seems the concert was meant to fit in an hour long time slot, because this concert is an hour and three minutes long.

The cover photo comes from an appearance on the TV show "Midnight Special" in 1973. The colors are a bit off, I think, but this was the best color photo I could find from the time period.
