Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade Of Pale - [STEREO] - [Special Tom Moulton Mix]

[ChrisBigBoy]

Tom Moulton is mentioned on Varese Sarabande's website.There is also "Albin" who has stereo versions on the web and a website BSN = both sides now,as in 2 ears,interesting stuff,why wear cotton when you can have silk.

There is a different very good stereo version on "Dick Bartley Presents Classic Oldies 1965-1969" The voice is placed nearly in the centre and is clearer,not far right with an echo.I could be wrong,but I think the Bartley version is from an original stereo backing tape with vocals off the mono take synched to it,so it real stereo.Dick Bartley,Eric Records,Varese Sarabande and Taragon are all sources of remastered and often stereo versions of oldies.

I was in Viet Nam killing people when I heard this song. So the significance of it and the lyrics, may be quite different than your opinion. It brings back very horrible feelings and fearfull thoughts doing what I did at the time. I love the song, but it really gives me a great deal of pain and guilt.

Can you do a mix on "See Emily Play" by Pink Floyd, it was never released in TRUE stereo, although it was recorded in 4-channel stereo, but sadly, the original stereo version is wiped, destroyed, or misplaced!! To this day, that song was NEVER mixed in TRUE stereo. Can you mix it?

@ChazYocom

There might be no need for that!

Pink Floyd has began a extensive catalog reissue! These Re-masters include See Emily Play! Apparently, James Guthrie (one of Pink Floyd's producers, he produced the wall), is remastering all of their albums!

It is coming out November 8th, 2011!

If you want more info, google this:

Pink Floyd - A Foot In The Door

It's too bad the original Quadraphonic mix of SEP is gone... :(

By the way MusicMike2, Great upload. This is simulated STEREO?, Sounds Great::) 10 Stars my friend.

[MrMotownmanny]

Great song. # 30 on my top 100 songs of the 60s. Annie Lennix did a good job covering it, but nothing like the original. I sang this at a Karaoke bar in 2004. It was near closing time, so when I sang, the dance floor filled up in no time. I did get a loud , round of aplause, as well as whistels and yells, and screams. LOL.

@MrMotownmanny

You sound like a typical englishman that likes to get drunk in bars in Spain and "sing" Karaoke:P

[tropicalpancake56]

Beautiful, Mike!!!! Thanks for the memories...

[Zer07jk]

It brings tears to my eyes all these memories. Esspecially the turntable with YES!..the Acutex phono stylus. What a wonder that was. I had a set

of the M320 III str's. Later we went to the Stanton age and again later .....well, you know. ;^))

[lulabell73]

Wonderful!

Thanks for posting MusicMike:)

Apparently there is a lost middle verse(s) of the song that is not on this popularly-played 45.

"She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,'

though in truth we were at sea

so I took her by the looking glass

and forced her to agree

saying, 'You must be the mermaid

who took Neptune for a ride.'

But she smiled at me so sadly

that my anger straightway died"

Makes a bit more sense of the whole song. A true classic and a fine Music Mike choice.

[fanblow]

Mike, you should do Nothing But the truth from them. I'm sure you have that.

[misteeq64]

Mike the introduction please .

[pewmanfustudios]

Cool song. I remember there was a video made for it years ago. It played on VH-1.

[spacepatrolman]

When mtv first started happening they said they were going to have old songs like that but they didnt have much then there was a uhf station showing rock videos that had some.

[sugarcheryl]

Love it! <3
