I am 22 year old, listning this song since i was 16. Still the first song on my playlist. After listening this song my face always turns whiter shade of pale. Try turning off all the lights in room and listen it on low volume just before sleep, You will get the best sleep ever.
Poca gente de tu generación, saben apreciar un tema como este. Hubo tiempo en que la música se sentía en la piel de tu pareja, cuando nuestros cuerpos fundidos, en un baile lento, llevaban el ritmo que marcaba nuestros latidos...está máquina del tiempo nos hace revivir esos momentos y nos ayuda a subir al último tren...🎼🎹🎶🎸🎶🎷💫💯🌹
I'm a musician and in the last band I played in our drummer Jack absolutely loved this song and Procol Harum were his favorite band,one day unexpectedly Jack died of a heart attack and at his funeral all they played was Procul Harum music and they played this song more then any other song,after the funeral I returned to my book store that I owned and sat alone with no one in the store and played Whiter Shade Of Pale for him on my acoustic guitar,I couldn't believe he was gone so it was my way of saying goodbye to him. Bob.
Dedicated to my beloved husband who passed away at 08/05/2023, i miss you every single day and i m going to miss you till the day i leave my last breath, this was one of your favs, hope to see you one day again and embrace you so deep and firm so you ll never have to leave again...
It's great that we were able to experience this time! I am now 76 years old and waiting to die. I have cancer that is no longer treatable. The music of the 60s/70s helps me a lot in my last days or weeks. There will never be such a great time again!!😪 Addendum 13.12.24 : Many thanks to everyone who has written a few words to me. Unfortunately, I cannot answer everyone individually and I would like to say thank you and wish you all the best!💖🫂
Bless you & I understand just how you feel about this music. I find it great therapy as I just get lost in my enjoyment of the music & shutout the world & all its problems. I'm 78 now. Reading lots of comments from fellow boomers.
No, one of the greatest Leslie Speaker songs ever done! Hammond HATED that speaker! But Donald Leslie pressed on. Now BOTH companies are owned by Suzuki. (I need to get some Suzuki stock!) steve
Yes,that Hammond 102 model organ has such a unique and beautifully haunting sound. It just gives me chills. And Matthew. Fisher plays it superbly in this all time classic. Rest in peace. Gary. You were great!
This song was issued in may 1977; I once dance it with my young GF, and the next day, in july, she dies brutally in a car crash... That's why, 51 years after, I cry when I listen it! RIP Michelle . . . I still love you...
So excellent . One can tell that even though they have to play this song every other night that they really love the song . There are so many wonderful nuances
Grande,immenso,indimenticabile Gary Brooker. Matthew Fisher un vero e proprio numero uno. Questo brano è la storia della musica. A 61 anni dico grazie Procol Harum,grazie Gary, che Dio ti tenga con sé.
All these decades and he's still got it. There's 80's artist's voices haven't aged anything like this good. I seriously don't know any other that still sounds pretty much exactly the same after 30+ years, leave alone near 50 years!!! *Stunning.*
about as close to perfect as a song can get Younger generations laugh I was bored when i was young . Being out on the street and most things did not matter and I did what i had to do . Such a touching song
Esse DVD,é absolutamente fantástico,essa é a melhor performance dessa música,o ambiente,a energia da The Union Chapel,combina com a banda de maneira única!Belíssima,canção!Que Deus o abençoe Gary Brooker!God bless you,Gary Brooker!
Hola les hablo nuevamente Jorge Navarrete Sánchez de Torreón Coahuila yo soy músico este llegué a tocar esa canción de procol harum una pálida sombra y es algo bello me remonta mi juventud hasta pronto
È la nostra musica. Anni””60””. Tanti vero?Ma cantata superbamente oltre i 70 anni. Il cantante e compositore””classe 45””l’ha interpretata fino all’ultimo. Un grande. ⭐️🙏💯🙏👏🙏.Quanti ci hanno lasciati del 1945😢. Noi li ricordiamo e con questa musica c’è un ritorno sì al passato, ma proiettato ad un’eterna gioventù. A tutti una 🙏❤🌟🙏🇮🇹.😇😘

Interestingly enough, he has said that when he had written that line, he hadn't ever read The Miller's Tale. If my memory serves correctly, I think he said he was unaware of the piece entirely, but either way, I know he hadn't read it at that point.
mendengar lagu ini..sepertinya bulu kuduk ku merinding tak kuasa mengingat masa lalu yg begitu akrab dg kata cinta pertama..skrang usiaku 55 thn tatapan masa llu seiring lagu ini yg penuh pengertian akan masa2 yg penuh arti dg sgla kemungkinan.. smoga yg mendengar lagu ini di beri kebahagian Aminnn
this is a super alternative to the original first verse and still a magic haunting song -the Hammond is awesome too, the crescendos, the beat changes, the song will be with us forever
Excelente tema, el clásico que perdura en el tiempo, el tema que se puede escuchar una y otra vez y sigue gustando, más ahora que el órgano tiene mas libertad de buscar notas, y la voz con la calidad de siempre, bien , Saludos desde Chillán Chile.
O nome dessa banda é Procol Harum, formada na Inglaterra na década de 1960. Eles são mais conhecidos por essa música "A Whiter Shade of Pale", considerada um clássico. O cantor era Gary Brooker, que faleceu em 19 de fevereiro de 2022 (76 anos), vítima de câncer.👏👏👏

One of the greatest songs ever, one of the greatest Hammond organ songs ever
No, one of the greatest Leslie
Speaker songs ever done!
Hammond HATED that speaker!
But Donald Leslie pressed on.
Now BOTH companies are owned

Suzuki stock!)

True, but I believe the original was recorded on a Lowery organ.
I'll listen to it twice sometimes to hear that old Hammond & Leslie tone cab.And that's a huge version !
so beautiful
The precious Hammond solo is so almost second to none
especially towards the end on this specific performace
Beautiful
My time never FORGET Procol Harum 🙏🎙🎶🎹 ❤
Yes,that Hammond 102 model organ has such a unique and beautifully haunting sound. It just gives me chills. And Matthew. Fisher plays it superbly in this all time classic. Rest in peace. Gary. You were great!
My daughter walked into church for her wedding to AWSOP, expertly played by a superb organist here. They did it as a surprise for me.
Excellent choice.
wife had the organist play it while we signed the register. That was in 1996.
His voice sounds great even after all these years!

That hammond is the best sound i ever heard in my life
Agree; totally fantastic. Nothing digital matches it :-)
In my opinion this is the ultimate live version
You are correct 🐱
Yes, it's much more soulful than those live orchestrated versions.
The one from Holland with a full orchestra is pretty sporty

slow dance with me wife, love this song!!! bloody fantastic!!!!!
Lord what an epic song
Una delle più belle versioni che io abbia mai ascoltato.
The Hammond organ is seared into our
collective consciousness
The Hammond B3
A nod to Chaucer in the lyrics and Bach in the music transformed into a timeless hit - genius.
Interestingly enough, he has said that when he had written that line, he hadn't ever read The Miller's Tale.
If my memory serves correctly, I think he said he was unaware of the piece entirely, but either way, I know he hadn't read it at that point.
Piękne zdjęcia dziękuję bardzo miłego wieczoru życzę powodzenia ❤❤❤non stop and
one of the greatest singers of the era.
I really love this song / sound Thanks for that!
I always found the music haunting on this song.
Que buenos momentos con esta canción tan sublime una pieza maestra
L'ho ascoltato come minimo 1000 volte ,anni 1970-1975 nesima superiore (Ct) vicina di casa❤❤❤
Quanta dolcezza e nostalgia mi trasmette questa bella canzone dei Procol Harum!
Che tempi 18 anni sentivo la voglia di vivere le prime minigonne ero sempre in riposto.
wann warst du 18 ich war 1966 14 Jahre alt schöne Jugend erlebt 👍
Rest easy Gary… legends only die when we do

Never tired of playing this song on a jukebox way back when i was in jr. hs 1969 i'm 63 now from nueva ecija, phillippines.
I was doing the same thing at a beach club in N.Y. in 69!
