Get the druggymug. Procol Harum was a British Rock/Psychedelic/Progressive band that was formed in the early 1960s. They drew attention with their #1 hit single "A Whiter Shade of Pale", though over time their success declined and they obtained a large cult following.
After the success of their initial studio work, they decided to tour, with their first show being the opening act for Jimi Hendrix in 1967.
The Original (Classical) lineup consisted of Gary Brooker (piano and lead vocals), Robin Trower (guitar), Matthew Fisher (organ), David Knights (bass), B.J. Wilson (drums), and Keith Reid (lyricist), though there were many, many lineup changes before they broke up in 1977.
Point of interest: Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale" tied with Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" for Best British Pop Single 1952-1977.

Get the subwoofingmug. Rock music with overtones of psychedelia. Generally blues based, like most rock, but often the most psychedelic aspects of this kind of music come from the juxtaposition of traditional rock sounds with outlandish ones (ie: When the Beatles used a sitar rather than a guitar).
The Psychedelic aspect can also come in the lyrics, though it is rare to see psychedelic lyrics without music that fits the part.
Popular techniques in this genre are to use exotic musical styles and warbly effects in order to simulate (or perhaps even STIMULATE) the effects of psychedelic drugs.
The definition of psychedelic rock is not set in stone, and therefore almost anything, even if it doesn't fit these criteria, can be included as long as it has that 'trippy' feel.
