Former Procol Harum Lyricist Keith Reid Dead at 76

Keith Reid, the former Procol Harum lyricist responsible for “A Whiter Shade of Pale” and most of the band’s other non-instrumental songs, has died.

Reid was 76 when he died March 23 of cancer, Best Classic Bands reported, citing an email sent to Reid’s friends.

One of those friends, comedian Richard Lewis, called Reid “the humble genius” in a tweet.

“I worshipped your imagination and loved you,” Lewis said.

Though he didn’t perform with the group, Reid was a full member of Procol Harum, writing mostly with Gary Brooker, who died in 2022, but also with Robin Trower. Besides “A Whiter Shade of Pale,” those songs include “Conquistador,” “Simple Sister,” “A Salty Dog,” “Shine on Brightly” and “The Devil Come from Kansas,” which Yusuf/Cat Stevens recorded in 2014.

He often appeared in promotional photos and was credited alongside the musicians on every album, except for 2017’s Novum, the only Procol Harum album not to feature Reid’s lyrics.

Outside of Procol, Reid wrote for other artists including John Farnham, whose version of “You’re the Voice” became Australia’s all-time, best-selling song. He also co-wrote the Jeff Healey Band’s “River of No Return” with Jon Tiven.

“When it came to writing words for songs, (Reid) was one-of-a-kind brilliance,” Tiven said on social media. “When it came to being a friend, I couldn't ask for a better one. When it came to collaborating, he brought me a lyric that turned into one of my biggest (if not my biggest) songs. Shine on brightly, genius.”

Reid released his second solo album, In My Head, in 2018.

“Bon voyage, dear friend,” John Waite wrote on Facebook.

Song of the Moment: John Waite - "Missing You"

When I first heard “Missing You” by John Waite, I was only nine years old and had no idea about the band The Babys or that he had been part of any band before being a solo artist. Even though I didn’t have the life experience at that age to truly appreciate the words that John was singing, I could still figure out through his vocal performance that there was some real emotion going on. The…

AeschTunes' Song of the Moment is "Missing You" by John Waite.
