Procol Harum's seventh studio album, Exotic Birds and Fruit, was released in April 1974. In its original LP incarnation, four songs made up side one - "Nothing But the Truth," "Beyond the Pale," "As Strong as Samson," and "The Idol" - all of which featured some of the band's best later work. They had retreated somewhat from the orchestral hybrid of their previous album, Grand Hotel, although "Nothing But the Truth" still boasted a string arrangement.

Information on sleeve: Procol Harum would like to thank for strings on "Nothing But The Truth". This album was recorded in dungeon no. 2 at AIR London Studios. The front cover painting was reproduced by kind permission of Roy Miles Fine Paintings, London. This album was produced for Strongman Productions. Printed in England by Robor Limited.

Exotic Birds And Fruit was recorded during the winter of 1973, 74 at AIR Studios at a period in British history when a three–day working week was imposed. Produced by Chris Thomas (his fifth for Procol) this album was a definite "let's get back to the rock songs album", as stated by Procol's Gary Brooker in 1974
