• Gary Brooker, Singer for Procol Harum, Dies at 76

  

  2022/02/25

  Procol Harum, a British rock group known for the big hit of their debut song "A Whiter Shade of Blue" released in 1967. Its core member, Gary Brooker, dies. He was 76 years old.
  The band became one of the most popular British rock bands of the 1970s, leaving behind the masterpiece "Grand Hotel" where the fusion of rock and classical music reached the highest peak.
  He was also a musician loved by Beatles members such as Paul McCartney's sessions and participation in the Ringo Starr & His All Star Band. We pray for the souls of Procol Harum's debut song "A Whiter Shade of Blue" led by Gary Brooker, who has had a great influence on the UK rock world for a long time.

  From EDWARDS, which realizes higher cost performance while inheriting the quality of ESP, an 8-string guitar with a 666mm scale is now available! Based on the ESP flagship model "HORIZON series", two models based on the concept of "easy-to-play 8-string" have been added to the lineup. The most attractive feature is that you can get an excellent playing feeling for both bass and treble strings by adopting the 666mm scale.
  The "E-HR8-FR" is a model that uses the Floyd Rose tremolo. In addition to dealing with intense arming, the looks of a metal guitar are also attractive. "E-HR8-FX" is equipped with a fixed bridge made by HIPSHOT.
  GOTOH / MG-T model is used for the peg, and smooth string exchange is possible. Both models are equipped with SEYMOUR DUNCAN pickups. It outputs a clear and snappy sound even in the low range such as Low F # and Low B. It is a model that can become the new standard for 8-string guitars in terms of both structure and hardware.
