RIP Gary, your voice will live forever in my teenage memories. I live not far from Sothend on sea where the band started. The Essex coast probably gave them their sound as their songs always remind me of home by the sea. He passed last year and left a hole in the music world. 👍💚

I completely agree. The original moved me for reasons I can’t explain. This version makes me feel things I can’t explain in ways I can’t explain and for reasons I can’t explain. It just hits deeper.

@hookedonreactions7649 Год назад

You should definitely check out the version of Stairway To Heaven at the Kennedy Center Honors. They put an orchestra and several choirs behind it and the cherry on top is that Anne Wilson was on vocals and Nancy was on acoustic guitar. Here’s a link to his reaction if you haven’t seen it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OM1QcRTdgkM.html

Paul McCartney was asked if there was one song he wished he had written .. it was A Whiter Shade Of Pale. It was the song playing when Paul first dated his first wife Linda Eastman! They were married for over 30 years until Linda’s death from breast cancer! Beautiful song!

@janetlawson4482 Год назад

I absolutely loved this song as a child, it came out in May 1967 and I was born in October, of course I always heard the studio version, but this classical composition Air on the G String by Bach was one of my grandfather’s favorite songs and I fell in love with it too, so together it had such an incredible emotional impact on me, it’s just perfect. I don’t know if you had seen that I brought up this song in your livestream or not, because we went off on a bit of a political tangent 😂, but I am so thrilled that you shared this with us and even happier that you enjoyed it. Everyone have a blessed day ❤.

@PlanetRaconteur Год назад

Recorded in the late 60's, Procol Harum's 'Whiter Shade of Pale' had no orchestra in the original record. This 2006 recording was a special event w/ the Danish Symphony.

@janetlawson4482 Год назад

Just incredible ❤

@johnwilson4120 Год назад

What is truly stunning is he originally sang this song in the 60s and his voice sounds the same, just richer. Amazing and great to hear this old masterpiece redone with an orchestra.

Love this song. I actually prefer the studio version from the 60's as it is the one I grew up on. This live version is very good though as it shows how powerful Gary Brooker's voice was even as he got older. "Conquistador" is another great song by Procol Harum. Sad to hear of his passing recently.

@TexasMagnolia Год назад

This is Still a classic rock hit!!! Ever since the 60’s! Great music never dies. This song was featured on your Best of the 60’s video you did. The studio version is haunting…you should react.

@ronaldmcrae4896 Год назад

Funny, I've listened to this as far back as when it was first released and never got the Ray Charles vibe until you mentioned it. There are parts that are similar.

@ellenfaulkner5070 Год назад

When I first saw this video, I also was trying to distinguish whether the sound was coming from a clarinet or oboe. Looks like most folks think it's an oboe. Either way, it's just beautiful. Was amazed to see Gary Booker still belting out this song in 2006, as he did when it was first released in 1967. Just incredible. Brings back the "feels" from early childhood. Love it! RIP Gary

The original studio song which came out in the 60's was great but this live version is stupendous as it features a choir and orchestra which gives it more depth. Gary Brooker's voice aged like a fine wine. R.I.P. Gary.

@dennisloren1568 Месяц назад

The woman - at the beginning of the song - in the orchestra is playing an oboe. Which a woodwind instument similar to a flute, clarinet or saxophone with a very thin reed.

@Hownotto523 Год назад

When the recording with orchestra came out, it was done with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra in Alberta, Canada. Several years ago they reunited for the anniversary of the recording. Very cool night.

@chris...9497 Год назад

This recording is in 2006. The original song was released in 1967, when the singer (Gray Brooker) was only 22 years old. His voice has barely changed. Procol Harum back then was one of another British rock & roll band, but they put out an early music video of this song. You can find it easily with a RU-vid search and see for yourself what it sounded like. The iconic linchpins of this song are Brooker's lead vocals and that Hammond organ. Procol Harum played a style of rock just arising in the mid-60s called Progressive Rock. This was experimental in nature, drawing inspiration and instrumentation from classical music, world music, avant-garde music, and new developments in instrumentation and recording techniques. Procol Harum in particular, like Pink Floyd, developed soundscapes and mood with their notation, lyrics, and arrangements. Their lyricist drew from avant-garde writing, whose purpose was not to provide literal or 'snapshot-sharp' descriptions of events, but something more dream-like, as if seen in visions or fog. They are meant to rely on the subconscious, leaving interpretation unique to the individual. Procol Harum's music and lyrics are quite literally 'a mood', and beautifully so. Given the blurred intent behind the lyrics, the meaning of this song has been debated since 1967. There is no clear or absolute idea, which was the lyrist's intent when crafting the words. To this day he will not provide any clue or verification of any component of his writing. Even the one clear item, "as the Miller told his tale", he denies as having anything to do with Chaucer's bawdy story "The Miller's Tale". I recommend doing a RU-vid search for "Procol Harum A Salty Dog Album cut". It was recorded and released 4 years after the original "A Whiter Shade of Pale" and, when compared with the 1967 recording, shows how they had grown. Great music.

@jeffreybooth5129 Год назад

Best band ever in myopinion and always good to see someone enjoy it for the first time.There certainly is more believe me. Grand Hotel and A Salty Dog are just two to consider from their vast catalogue. I could suggest dozens more from a band who were so underrated by many.

@patricklemeur4607 Год назад

"...her face at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale." Still one of the best lines ever written. So good a line in fact, that the rest of the song was written around it.

Mugnify. The original recording was a faster beat. Yes with orchestra more electric guitar and mainly organ for the melody. So, maybe now slowed to Ray Charles. It came out around 1967 from memory. Im 68.
