Announcment on Procol Harums Facebook.
Their great lyricist is dead. One of my favourite lyric writers of rock. Hes legacy and impact on rock lyrics is sound and important. https://m.facebook.com/100045138617144/ Edited by Icarium - March 29 2023 at 15:09 |

Without doubt, one of the best and most talented lyricists who ever walked this earth with a turn of phrase and use of drama and tension that is unrivalled in my opinion. Procol Harum were a great band but Keith's Lyrics took them to a completely different level. RIP Keith, Shine on Brightly.

Yes, I saw that in the obituary in the newspaper yesterday. I never knew that, either.
