I can't believe Gary Brooker can still hit those high notes!!! Sounds much like the original.

There are so many hidden elements in Procol Harum's music. The band thought of quality of music not in terms of clarity of distortion, as ELO and Supertramp did, but in terms of incorporating every member's talent way up front in the song. Listen to their music and you will hear both the piano and the organ adding something other than just the typical background. They really were master craftsmen in this regards but one has to know a little about music to appreciate the accomplishment.

Classic. For me totally awesome. I saw Procol Harum in NYC in 1968, 1969 and in San Francisco in 2005. The interweaving of Gary Brooker's gospel/classical grand piano and Matthew Fisher's serious classical/rock lines underneath Gary Brooker's rich and emotional vocals in this song always makes me feel very happy.

One of my favorite PH songs. I know the title is a reference to a hat, but it nonetheless reminds me of one of my favorite German cities. Es geht mir gut!

@emitra Non c'e' paragone, e' stupefacente come a 60 e passa anni Gary Brooker continui ad avere una voce stupenda.

Sorry, that's"A whiter shade of pale." missed a key. By the way, the first concert I saw these guys at in 1972 was a landmark. It was the 1st time "Harum" ever played LA in a full fledged concert. The opening act was The Eagles. Take it Easy had been on the charts for about 3 weeks in So. Cal. The show was to begin at 8pm. At about 8:45 The Eagles walked on to a bare stage and took their positions. Glen Frey then said , "Sorry we're late. We were across the street bowling."

One of the best bands ever. I saw them live in 1972 and then again in 1974 both times at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in Southern California. They were stunning. I sometimes think the band was far too intelligent for the masses. Brilliant music played beyond the pale. God rest you B.J. Wilson. One of the best musicians I ever saw perform. How Ironic today is. I was moving a piano with some friends and one of the guys picked out "A White Shade of Pale" on the board when we were done.



Immagino la gente che canticchiava tra i denti la versione dei camaleonti o i dik dik, non ricordo....

...erano I Camaleonti, lo ricordo bene e con grande simpatia. Ma la voce di Gary Brooker mi ha lasciato un "solco".
