'We skipped the light fandango'

The song of 1967 and forever will be.

Thanks for all those memories x

Tony did a tribute to Gary this morning on SOTS.

Saw this beautiful live version of A Whiter Shade of Pale on Facebook.

Procol Harum performing A Whiter Shade of Pale with the Danish National Concert Orchestra and choir at Ledreborg Castle, Denmark in August 2006

Ah....I haven't heard/seen that in a few years. I stumbled across it when looking for A Salty Dog to post on either the R2 boards, or Jezza's, or Enough Already. Too many years ago to remember properly. Beautiful, in any case. I played it many times.

Anyway...A Salty Dog, from the same concert. It's an incredible piece of work.
