Keith Reid, lyricist for 1960s pop group Procul Harum died last week while undergoing cancer treatment.
The 76-year-old, non-playing member of the chart-hitting group, wrote the words to all their original songs, including their only No.1, A Whiter Shade Of Pale and fellow top-ten hit Homburg.
He formed the band with lead singer Gary Brooker (who died last year) back in 1967, but while he attended all their recording sessions, he never played on any tracks, instead contributing just the lyrics.
