      This hit me hard as well, I first heard this Masterpiece in 1969 by a local band doing a cover of it. Love it then and now . Emotions and memories all good.

    This is just magical isn't it? One of the greatest songs ever written, and then performed by the great Gary Brooker. This is music at it's finest. Great reaction!

    Yes, Gary Brooker was one of the greats. Here is at 61 and sounded just as good as he did in 1967 when this song first came out. Sadly, We lost Gary to cancer in February of 2021 but his songs will live on.

    Hi Rob, was hoping you would get to this one & very glad you did. Totally amazing!! Had the same effect on me the first time I heard this 2006 rendition a few years ago. A National Symphony, a choir an iconic 60's band and the great vocals of Gary B. - It's insane how good this is - I count it as one of the best live music performances ever. If/When you get time, check out Lucy Thomas's cover to this song. Take care

    Wow…..Great reaction video! First time viewer here (🤔 just might have to subscribe if you do more of this quality) 👍 As you said, music is powerful - brings back so many memories - of love lost, friends passed on, and yet so many fine memories as well.
    If you are interested, I have some comments, interpreting the lyrics of this song which gives it even a deeper dimension - I will share that at the end of this - (and sorry for this detailed commentary, but I think you will find it helpful if you listen to the song again and/or share it with others).
    Gary Brooker’s incredible singing in this live performance matched - or perhaps even exceeded - the quality of the original 1967 recording that took place 40 years earlier.
    The band’s name comes from a couple of possible sources. One of the band members in ‘67 had a cat named Procol Harum. This is Latin for “Far beyond these things”…. Personally, I think they named the band after the cat. 😁
    This song and about 3 or 4 others defined the sound and the scene that was the “Summer of Love”. Unfortunately, that beautiful era only lasted about three years…. Innocence lost - marked by another outdoor concert in December ‘69 at Altamont - The Rolling Stones - they hired the Hells Angels motorcycle gang to be their “security” force - 4 people died that night.
    However, great music continued to come out from the late 60s all through to the mid 90s. But 1967 through Woodstock 1969 was magic.
    There has been much debate/misunderstanding regarding the lyrics. I believe I can unlock the mystery for you. The lyrics are mostly metaphorical.
    The song is about a young couple who are attending a party perhaps at a ballroom - maybe even on a ship. They were either entertainers for the crowd, or they were just part of the crowd dancing….”We skipped the Light Fandango” but instead did “cartwheels across the floor”, implying that they were having a great time, perhaps even on their way to getting drunk. The room seem to be shaking apart as they “ordered another drink”, but the waiter brought a tray of many drinks.
    As the night wore on, the young man was fast becoming interested in having a more private intimate time with this young girl…. But yet even through her near drunkenness, she sensed it, and became frightened.
    As the young man shuffled through his “playing cards” - a metaphor for looking for that winning hand to convince her to go with him - she again was unable or unwilling to give into him. Even as he told her stories, and lies about himself to impress and take advantage of her she knew she was potentially headed for trouble as “The truth was plain to see”.
    The vestal virgin metaphor clearly implied that she was young, inexperienced, and not ready for what she feared was his ultimate intent.
    But he kept on with his tales and lies, and he “would not let her be”…..ramping up the pressure on her to give in. This frightened her tremendously.
    I know that Gary Brooker and his cowriter actually wrote two more verses, that were never studio recorded (except that there are a few other live performances by Procol Harum that include the 3rd & 4th verse - which makes an otherwise spectacular pop song from the late ‘60’s way too long and it becomes tedious to listen to). The 3rd & 4th verses are also full of images and metaphors which keep the listener always a bit unsure how that story ends.
    Again, I want to say your reaction video was excellent.
    Well done

      VERY COOL! I LOVE this song. 1969 high school graduate. I’ve also been a major fan of the Eagles for decades. My claims to fame are Jimi Hendrix, the Fifth Dimension and Simon and Garfunkel in about ‘68 and ‘82. I just missed the Beatles when I was about 12 years old. I’ve been in the Seattle area most of my life but the family was with my dad when he was doing active duty training for the Navy in New York City. Someone gave the guys tickets to a band he had never heard of before, so he turned them down. 😮 I probably would’ve been trampled it at Shea Stadium anyway, right? I saw Carlos Santana and Earth, Wind, and Fire not so long ago. ✌🏽
