Tazzz N Philly react and comment on the amazingly talented, Procol Harum, performing, A Whiter Shade of Pale' LIVE in Denmark (2006).
Procol Harum were an English rock band formed in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, in 1967. Their best-known recording is the 1967 hit single "A Whiter Shade of Pale", one of the few singles to have sold more than 10 million copies.
Gary Brooker MBE was an English singer and pianist, and the founder and lead singer of the rock band Procol Harum. He passed in 2022. May he rest in paradise, but his music live on to touch the hearts of others.

Rest in Peace Mr Gary Brooker. Love you and miss you so much.❤❤❤❤
Yes, this is truly a musical masterpiece. It was when it was released and has always been.
Thanks, Laurel. 😏
Probably one of the best things anyones ears well ever be treated to.
This was a concert filmed for Danish TV and they threw everything at it. 8 cameramen and over 100 sound channels to mix down. Every instrument was close miked. There were two concerts filmed on successive days but they only used footage from the second one. There were no overdubs or studio trickery used such as pitch correction.
Oh wow, very cool to read this comment. That's fascinating. Appreciate the time you took to educate. 😏. ~ Tazzz ~
I still live in Southend-on-sea and saw Procol Harum several times back in the 70's.
No one understands what the song means but the song is incredible...its the classical symphonics that take it next level. There are quite a few artists that have that earthy gritty voice but its not a voice that typically is heard with classical and symphonic music which is why it blows everyone away.
The original studio version from 1967 was great but this live version is stupendous as the orchestra and choir give it more depth. Gary Brooker's voice aged like a fine wine. R.I.P. Gary. You can watch the orchestra (which is the Danish National Orchestra) perform 'The Good Bad & The Ugly' theme tune which is also great.
I grew up to this music, brings back sooooo many memories!!!! This is even a more satisfying rendition to listen to than the original sound track. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Absolutely beautifully done!!!!
Awwww. I am very happy this version made you happy, Ellie. 😏. Happy I brought back some memories for you, musically.

"The Miller's Tale" is the second of Geoffrey Chaucer 's Canterbury Tales (1380s-1390s). The song reached #1 on the CHUM (Toronto, Ontario) charts in '67. Their song "Conquistador' was a hit as well: th-cam.com/video/t-zti_qAHsA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pBSJobxUJCFBIXoq.
Each line of this song meant something to Gary. I saw an interview of his a few years ago. I can’t remember all of it, but wandered through his playing cards = he was in a pub, playing cards, and there was a girl there that he liked. She wasn’t interested, and as ‘i wandered through my playing cards, I would not let her be’ so, although she wasn’t interested, he didn’t give up.
First 45rpm that I ever bought. I was 9/10 years old, a Londoner growing up in a magnificent era of English/British music. I went to many concerts all over London, from the age of 11. Saw Procul Harum at the Empire Pool Wembley. They were magnificent. RIP beautiful Gary ❤️🏴🇬🇧
@@karencrookshank4971 a reminiscent and beautiful comment. Thanks for checking out our channel, Karen. Keep those fond memories. 😏

This melody is based on Air On A G String, by Bach!!
The melody was written by original organist Matthew Fisher. This was confirmed by court decision when Fisher sued Gary Brooker for a share of the compositional royalties. The judge was also a trained classical musician. Fisher was inspired by Bach but the melody was original. The judge agreed and his decision was upheld by an Appeals Court and the House of Lords, the equivalent of the US Supreme Court.
People struggle with the lyrics because they make "no sense". The reason is that this is a rock equivalent of a surrealist painting with several views of faces turning pale through the ages, the central theme being the Miller circa 1385. His face is ghostly because his face would have been covered in flour dust, his face turned pale when he realised what his wife had done, and why he was to blame. Others, other than him being sea sick are less obvious.
This was John Lennon's favorite song for many years. He played it over and over.
@@markhorton8578 appreciate your description of this artistry. So, making no sense, can I guess, be sometimes sensible. Leaving the interpretation open perhaps.
@@tazzznphilly Yes I have watched different people read "love/breakup" and "death/dying" and even "lover cheating" into it.
It does have a very enigmatic quality to it.
As for being a Masterpiece; if after 50 years people are still calling it a masterpiece, then it is a masterpiece. Not just something which hit a sweet spot in trend and fashion.
Great song! Thanks Tazzz.
Welcome, Clint.
This is the second reaction video on this particular version of this classic song. You really need to listen to the original version, which is my all-time favorite from the rock era. Part of my attraction to it is the fact that the harmony was based on Bach's famous Air in G from his Suite #3 in D.
❤😊
I was surprised when the reaction to this song popped up. For me, the recording of A Whiter Shade Of Pale from 1967 is one of my absolute favorite pieces in music history. The original's sound is characterized by probably the most beautiful use of the Hammond organ in rock music. Compositionally, the piece is influenced by Air from Suite No. 3 in D major by Johann Sebastian Bach (for me, Bach is the greatest musician who ever lived). The different melodies of the singing voice and the accompaniment are beautifully used as counterpoint. Another influence is the cantata "Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme", also by Bach. Along with the Beatles and Moody Blues, one of my biggest musical influences from that time, even though I discovered the pieces much later.
Gary Brooker died in early 2022.
Everybody's is on his her own. The world is great but àlways be careful.
Bro, Iv'e Been Watching East Enders for 30 Years ! Cheers !
@@tinkpotty WAHOO! YESSSS! Omg, that show is addictive. Thanks for commenting. I cant even pick a favorite character...I love soooooo many. 😏
@@tazzznphilly Phil Mitchell 100% Hahahahahaha !
@@tinkpotty He is awesome! If he ever leaves show it would crush me. I was saddened when Grant left. Lol, i don't care about Samantha tho. She comes and goes, and I never care. 🤣
@@tazzznphilly Hahahaha Sam is a Cow. But I'm with you I Love evreyone mostly except bernie's Mom . There is a rumor going around that Phil will be the next murder victim ? Bro if Phil goes I go
@@tinkpotty 😳. Omg, I cant even think straight of Phil going. I like Bernies Mom - when she isnt crying. I like her happy times. I guess one of my least favorites at the moment is, Nugget and Denzel. They bore me. 🤷♂️
This is my comment post
Lol, ummmm ok. Thank you. 😏
There are supposedly 2 more verses to this song.
There are but as far as I know it's never been officially released, which is insane because it's incredibly beautiful and makes the meaning much clearer. In fact, until this version was posted two years ago, I never saw video of them playing it, just audio with some random pictures: PROCOL HARUM: A WHITER SHADE OF PALE, (ALL FOUR VERSES !!), HARLEQUIN THEATRE, REDHILL,19 JULY 1997 th-cam.com/video/iDioqrKEbEA/w-d-xo.html
@@prakaklef Thanks so much for posting that link. I grew up loving the song and never knew there were 4 verses!
Don't try and explain it, The song is supposed to not make sense.It was abstract .
Not more abstract than a person with a cheating partner ... seems pretty concrete to me ...
@@jakobm.tilsted5333 Not so I shall explain above.
I watch Eastenders! 😂
😳😏. Too funny! Im watching it NOW. Had to catch up on past episodes. I cant wait for Jay to find out that woman is faking her pregnancy. Lexie just told him she saw her drinking.
@@tazzznphilly you do need to catch up! 🤣 I love a good binge watch! ❤️✌️
I apologise in advance, but EASTENDERS?, give me strength, I'm UK born and bred, PLEASE don't judge us (the UK that is) based on that garbage.
I respect YOUR opinion. The fact that I am saying positive things about your country should be the focus, and be appreciated. I would imagine IF I said I didn't like your country, based on the show, then that would be worth defending. Friendly advice - accept compliments without defending. 😏. ~ Tazzz ~
Any particular reason why you went for this version rather than the original? Procul Harum did in fact record other tracks with an orchestra, but not with this one. Brooker's voice held up well, but is not the voice we loved so dearly in his and our youth. PH were one of the biggest names in an era full of massive British rock bands.
The band always declined to say what the lyrics mean. British rock music at the time seemed to run entirely on whisky and acid, so lyrics like these were hardly unusual. It seems to recall a drunken encounter with an unknown woman, which today we would say involved rape or very nearly. For more enigmatic PH, A Salty Dog is stunning, and the weirdness is much more sneaky.
The reason I chose this one is 2:00
@@tazzznphilly The original is one of the best selling singles ever, but this was even better, is just brilliant.And by the way his voice got better as he aged.
If I lived there I'd probably go to see it but not near that water way feature (aligators!)
TRANSLATION - you like this too! 😏. WAHOO! I guessed right with you, Sir.
~ Tazzz ~
You tend to not get alligators in Denmark...
They do not have aligators in Denmark.
@@spacefanatic Well aware.
@@spacefanatic crocodiles
Maybe a bit too white?probably needs a bit black or brown?
the song is about coming to terms with the realization that there is no god, no reason, just a fight to the end and nothingness. That's a lighter shade of pale...
No… cocaine according to Gary Brooker.
@@Grammichal Absolutely untrue.
According to Brooker it’s a love song.
