Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing from Mobile Fidelity. Mastered from the original master tapes and pressed at RTI. Procol Harum stood apart for it's aptitude to blend classical figures with rock motifs without coming across as self-indulgent or contrived. Graced with commanding mood pieces, the group's 1969 album - appointed with evocative artwork that pays homage to the Player's Navy Cut logo - exhibits the band's distinctive talents and genre-jumping breadth with an idyllic fusion of performance, composition, and sound. Interspersed with straight rock, blues and pop items, A Salty Dog showed a slight change of direction from it's predecessors, being thematically less obscure. The title track itself was the first Procol track to use an orchestra. The album was the first record produced by Matthew Fisher, who quit the band soon after it's release.
