Gary Brooker (1945–2022) was an English singer-songwriter and pianist, and the founder and lead singer of the rock band Procol Harum. His emotional vocals and distinctive piano playing played a significant role in the band's music, and "A Whiter Shade of Pale" became a worldwide hit.
Brooker started a solo career and released the album No More Fear of Flying in 1979. The same year, he joined friend Eric Clapton's band. With Brooker in the lineup, they released the studio album Another Ticket. Clapton fired the entire band in 1981, but he and Brooker remained good friends afterwards, and were for many years neighbours in the Surrey Hills. Brooker joined Clapton for several one-off benefit gigs over the years.
In July 1968, Brooker married Frenchwoman Françoise Riedo, they had no children. He was a supporter of the Countryside Alliance and played in concerts to raise funds for the organisation.
Brooker died from cancer at his home in Surrey on 19 February 2022, at the age of 76.
