Who are the musicians (Orchestra? Guitar player? Organist?)?

[violetjm]

@technocrash09 - It's the London Symphony. Guitarist is Robin Trower (on only this particular track) and organist is Matthew Fisher (again, only playing on this one track.) If there's piano here, it's Gary Brooker. He also plays harpsichord on this album, but I can't hear any keyboards here except for the church organ. (My ear isn't good at picking out individual keyboard instruments, especially when a symphony is involved.)

[technocrash09]

@violetjm Interesting. I am a big fan of PH and know those musicians well. I saw them live in 94 (without RT as he was not touring with them then). I did not know about this collaboration. By the notes above it sounds more like the uploader edited this than it does actually being on a recording. In any event, thanx for the reply. This would be a rare appearance with Gary, Robin and Matt together, for sure!

@technocrash09 - P.S. Beginning at about 2:47, that's two keyboards being played concurrently, organ and piano, so that must be both Mr. Fisher and Mr. Brooker.

[technocrash09]

@violetjm At 2:47, that is actually a harp with MF coming in with organ at 3:20 and GB piano / MF organ at 3:30. As a piano player, I do have the ear for the keyboard stuff. I am very happy to hear that this wonderful version of Repent Walpurgis does, in fact, involve some of my very favorite musicians (and that includes the London Symphony!!)

@technocrash09 - Thanks so much for all that info. So it's a harp! I can hear it now. Also can hear where MF and then GB come in. Thanks for giving me the exact times. I am a big PH fan, too. Some fans refer to "The Long Goodbye" as "Brooker With Symphony," since Fisher and Trower only appear on "Repent." A funny thing on this album is that Tom Jones sings "Simple Sister." Can you imagine?..... I love the live version of Repent best because of the amazing B.J. Wilson - Peace also to you

[technocrash09]

@violetjm Haha! Tom Jones??? That IS funny! Although I have to say, I was born in 51 and lived all through the hippie era, etc. Tom Jones was a virtual GOD in his day and I liked alot of his stuff :) Maybe I will visit your channel where I can type more. There is some trivia about B.J. Wilson I could share with you (R.I.P.....passed when he was just 43, Oct 8th 1990.
