    Gary Brooker had the most amazing voice! Check the original out when he was young. It will blow you away. Gary Brooker passed away in 2022. RIP Gary. Love your reaction!

    This song is so beautiful! I am also blown away by Gary Brooker's voice ! He sounds ever bit as good as the original , back in the 60's. Love it and your reaction is great , as usual.

    Gary Booker was so talented, this song first released by Procum Harem in 1967, Booker was the lead singer . Believe it or not his voice sounds richer now than it did when he was young. RIP Gary

      I agree. Most the time when you hear sing songs they did when the were younger you wish the would stop and go home. But not him, I didn't care for the song when he first sung it but I really love it now.

      The original melody is even older - it's based on a Johann Sebastian Bach fugue written in the 1600s

    this song was originally done by Procol Harum in 1967, this particular concert was in 2006 and the reference to "and the Miller told his tale, her face, at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale" is a reference to The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer written between 1387 and 1400

      Imagine an era when barefoot, rag-wearing teenagers smoking weed in the park were able to catch references to 14th Century literature.

    I believe that this is the Danish national orchestra playing with Procol Harem. You should listen to the orchestra do " the good bad and ugly" theme. You'll love it!

    Gary Brooker had such a majestic voice. I wore this album out when I was young. I highly recommend Conquistador from the same concert. RIP.

    Great reaction KS! Procol Harum put this out in 1967. That's Gary Brooker singing. Gotta check out some Spencer Davis Group - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out. You'll be blown away KS!

    I get goose bumps when the choir comes in on this version. I love when reactors do this one. And of course, you didn't disappoint. This song actually came out in 1967, many many years before this concert,

    I grew up in Southend in Essex where Procul Harum come from. Sometimes they they rehearsed in an old church hall which my friends and I found out about and used to go and watch. Got to know them a little bit. Very down to earth guys. Only recognise Mr Brooker from this line up though.

    You are not old enough to have heard the original studio release on the radio / disc (vinyl !) .... and while very good in all phases of vocals and instrumentation ..... it was mild, down played in dynamic presence of sound ...... here in LIVE PERFORMANCE, MANY INSTRUMENTS, POWERFUL ORGAN, PIANO & MOST IMPORTANTLY a phenomenal vocal rendition of lead singer with decades of age, experience and that spirited sense of passion PROVES HUGE IN DELIVERING BRILLIANTLY SUNG LYRICS !

    Beautiful song, it is a lament, about a young woman overdosing and dying at a wild party. And her face at firstly just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale. 😢

    He was so young and virile when he wrote this years ago, and sounded about the same. I think he had cancer a long time.

    K, Moody Blues - Knights in White Satin is also a must. Another 60’s rock band that infused orchestral music with rock.
