Procol Harum - Broken Barricades - 02 - Broken Barricades

great track , brilliant organ solo

@mxtypx easily one of the best, intelligent, eloquent, artistic, creative, classical, progressive rock bands to ever grace a pair of JBL studio monitors. This LP along with Home and Shine On Brightly mark a period of incandescence in rock and roll music to be played on radio, now found here or your iPod. Gary Brooker, Robin Trower, BJ Wilson, Matthew Fisher and the family of members over the years... we are lucky to have had them here to give these masterpieces to us all!

Absolutely stunning song! I'd forgotten how powerful and majestic Procol Harum's brilliant compositions truly were.

[SupernalOne]

the scenario in the song is the Republican vision for America, with the themselves as the overlords and the rest of us in despair

What happened 2 rock?

[SupernalOne]

Absolutely lovely elegiac piece, so sad: the revolution has failed, the gods have turned their backs, all is lost -

[jeffreyad1]

One of the bands best..........

I'll never forget the first time I heard this in '71. Didn't see the end coming....never thought of ending a song with a drum solo! Classic.

[mxtypx]

Simply one of the most creative groups to come out of England in the 60's. I just shake my head at what has become of 'popular music'. Good luck to everyone; God know we all need it.

I love this song. I remember having to watch the Trojan Women in college, a few years after the albumn's release. See it if you can. I don't know if it's still available but if it is and you love this song, put it in your Netflix queue.

Thanks for posting this.

B.J. Wilson's drumming on this is great.
