Classic Records / Procol Harum


During my most recent vinyl spending spree I acquired from Classic Records a 200 gram 'Quiex SV' release from Procol Harum. On one side of the record "A whiter Shade of Pale" is cut at 45 rpm and the other side traditional 33 1/3. That's it, only one song. I can't stop listening to this cut....when I close my eyes its like the recording stuido is in my great room. These people at CR really know their analog...It is amazing. If you can, pick up a copy. I assure you that you won't be dissapointed. This one song will become one of the 'black vinyl discs' you use to convert back those who were taken in to the dark side of digital!

Yes, this is a very good recording. Did you know that the lead singer/author of this song toured with Ringo Starr(and his all-stars) for a number of years?

You get the same song with Jack Bruce(Sunshine of your love), on Base, Frampton on lead guitar, and Ringo doing drums in a 'live' setting.

Of course, this is not the extraordinary studio session to which you refer, but it is, nevertheless, kinda fun.

especially on DVD.
