Bobby Harrison (born Robert Leslie Harrison, 22 June 1939, at West Ham, London, England) is a drummer. He was an early member of Procol Harum, but shortly after their 1967 hit single "A Whiter Shade of Pale" was released, he and guitarist Ray Royer left the group to form the band Freedom. He has also worked with several other members of Procol Harum on other projects; he joined a band called SNAFU which contained Procol's future organist Pete Solley, and also on Matthew Fisher's solo album Journey's End.
He is currently in a band called 'Journey', where he plays Christian-oriented rock around the Leigh-On-Sea area of Essex.
