I sang with Greenwood Singers for this concert. It was an honor and a thrill to perform with Procol Harum. Gary Brooker, the band, the symphony and the choir all had a great time.
There is not a single person in the world, today or ever, who could perform this song better than Gary Brooker. It’s as if the universe found him and the song and brought them together for posterity.
I just got reaquainted with Procol Harum after a 50 year hiatus. I'm just now discovering some of their hidden gems: "A Salty Dog" is absolutely stunning musically and lyrically.
OMG- where has our music gone? All of these songs were written in the 60's to be re-imagined in the 90's with an orchestra. Music nowadays seems so dumbed down- so juvenile- what happened to us as a species?? Seriously- how did this happen?- are we truly getting dumber by the decade?? Wars rage across the globe and we seem to get dumber by the moment but this performance brings back some grace, some intelligence, some dignity to us all- God Bless Procol Harum.
Thats how you do a concert !...has to be one of the best ever "modern era" vocalists...watch the 2006 live performance on here with the DNCO...his voice was even better if you can believe it, 62 years old at that one and better than ever...R.I.P Gary Brooker CBE
I was still in the US Army when this magnificent concert happened and knew nothing about it. I'm just discovering it now. But it's OK in fact it makes it all the more sweeter and I'm grateful that it was recorded and filmed, especially now that Gary has passed away. I met him at the Paler's Party in Denmark in 2006. I wasn't interested in an autograph or photo. I just wanted to thank him for all the great music over the years. He couldn't have been nicer to me.
Oh my gosh how wonderful is this. Tommy Banks was Edmontons jewel. Procal Haram sound fantastic and we were so honored the first time, and they returned. Edmonton Symphony Orchestra the best! Thank you!
One of the greatest composers and writers of the 19 century...God bless Gary ..thanks for all your time and music. ..we are looking to our Souls ..peace brother .
You probably mean the 20th century… nevertheless, he wrote good stuff in the 21st century! I was lucky to see them live in Stuttgart in 2018. RIP Mr Broker!
This concert is one of the best of Procol Harum and so special with Edmonton Orchestra and chorus, Gary Brooker 's singing was very inspired that night and emotional but also the musicians of the band, a marvellous audience as well recieved all good vibes cheering back to the artists in complete love communion, really an extraordinaire performance, ungorgettable! ❤
Fantastic, just discovered this. Mark Brzeziski played drums, former drummer for Big Country. Gary Brooker received an OBE for his charitable work in 2003. Good man.
Quel charisme et quelle voix chez Garry Brooker, pas le moins du monde impressionné par l’orchestre Très bien accompagné le guitariste très inspiré et le batteur… Vous avez vu ce solo de batterie !
A wonderful experience and a kind of "deja vu", as someone said before the concert. Excellent form of the entire group, wonderful orchestra with choir and conductor. Great audience. To be there is to commune with the highest of arts.
Big thanks. I have been waiting for the full concert broadcast for 32 years. Me and my dear friend saw this band lineup 2 months later in Halmstad Sweden.
Maravilloso y emocionante concierto, desde mi adolescencia admiro su musica y canciones. Desde una antigua radio de los años 60 hasta ahora en un Ipad. Un regalo de la vida en Chile.
I have heard the song before probably in a movie, but Brooker’s voice was amazing. There’s another version from 2006 with the Danish philharmonic orchestra when he’s at 60 and his voice is possibly even better than when he was younger. Just an amazing song. I heard he passed away last year so RIP.
E' la musica che ci riporta indietro nel tempo dei nostri migliori anni, e quella degli anni 60 non si può descrivere per la magnificenza che irradia, STUPENDA.
Thanks so much for sharing this. I was at both of these concerts. It was awesome. May Gary Brooker rest in peace. Hope you have a Merry Christmas. Cheers! ✌️

Wish I was there but I was stuck in Panama with the US Army. But after I retired they came twice to my hometown of Ridgefield, Connecticut in 2014 and 2019 with Paul Winter joining them on soprano sax for Whiter Shade Of Pale and A Salty Dog. How lucky can a fan get?
I last saw Procol Harum in summer 2014, with Carl Palmer/ ELP legacy I-95 industrial complex Aston Twp, Pa. 10 yrs ago from this post July 29, 2024. I saw PROCOL HARUM 4 times: 1991, 1994, 2012, 2014...
Great to see the prominence of Gary's piano in the two instrumentals at the end. Brilliant renditions of Grand Finale, Repent Walpurgis and Conquistador (twice!)
this is unreal im floored did they actually do this in 71' with this Orchestra? I saw them live in 1970 at Bill Grahams Fillmore East in NYC a highlight of my life for sure thanks .. yep i see in the liner note Bill Graham was invloved with this 91' show not sure if 71' suprised they didnt take this on tour in 71' to big stadiums would of made tons

Да “в тылу” - ру. sorry, бараны (86%?) терпеливо топают на пукинскую скотобойню (пу. РАЙ), ГУЛАГ 2.0 или Улус Китая… НЕ до веселья - ИМ... Царство Небесное ВСЕМ СЛАВЯНАМ, сгинувшим за хотелки сЦаря и его воровскую лживую власть, УНИЧТОЖАЮЩИХ Россию и ГРОБящих её НАРОД… Аминь.

Congratulations.
Quel est le titre de la première chanson svp 🙏
Great job by all, although the original album version (Holding On) was more soulful IMO. Same with Can’t Turn Back The Page
@@patricemaurice7609Ghost Train is the title of the first song.
Agree Completely
Gary Brooker was one of the greatest vocalists in rock history! But you knew that already...
What a great musician Gary Brooker was!

Just heard "A Salty Dog" for the first time myself,from the concert in Denmark. Trying to find the whole concert now.

Gary Brooker & Procol Harum, one of my all-time favs! R.I.P. Gary & Keith....❤❤
MOST FAVORITE MUSIC... G S. and KAY SCALES
Thanks for reminding together this magic duo composer (Gary) & lyricist (Keith)
Brooker took A Salty Dog to a brand new level! Incredible performance!

100% The 2006 version is just got it all. Not a hint of just running through it.
Gary Brooker and Procol Harum were the soundtrack of my youth. Thank you so much for posting this gem. Piero
Beyond these things will never be the same
The late great , and one and only Gary Brooker.

Moments in time. Very nostalgic.
Fantastic, just discovered this. Mark Brzeziski played drums, former drummer for Big Country. Gary Brooker received an OBE for his charitable work in 2003. Good man.
What a marvelous post!
Amazing is all I have, and priceless.
Quel charisme et quelle voix chez Garry Brooker, pas le moins du monde impressionné par l’orchestre
Très bien accompagné le guitariste très inspiré et le batteur…
Vous avez vu ce solo de batterie !

Něco neuvěřitelného, boží nádherné video a moooc děkuji klaním se, děkuji 💃
La voix inoubliable de Gary Brooker, un réel plaisir !!!
A wonderful experience and a kind of "deja vu", as someone said before the concert. Excellent form of the entire group, wonderful orchestra with choir and conductor. Great audience. To be there is to commune with the highest of arts.
When I watch this today, I miss Gary. His voice, the way he sometimes looks up with a smile.
No one performed on stage like him.
Jackpot for RUclips and Procol fans round the world. One of their grestest concerts ever. What playing What singing. What energy!! Thanks Hermann.
Thanks for uploading this amazing concert 🎵 Fantastic! Gary was so awesome and handsome 😍
Wonderful HoMBURG !!!!
MERCI......
Electric guitar and the monstrous orchestra fits perfectly together. Melange musicale parfait.
BJ Wilson is dearly missed here. 😔
One of my favorite live LP`s...
Big thanks. I have been waiting for the full concert broadcast for 32 years. Me and my dear friend saw this band lineup 2 months later in Halmstad Sweden.
Glad I could be helpful! the Halmstadt gigs were the first concert after the Edmonton shows. Can you recall the location In Halmstadt ?

Tylösand. A nice Hotel by the sea. The owner is still Per Gessle, founder of Roxette.

What a wonderful surprise Christmas gift...the best a person could receive, Hermann, thank you!
Just hearing Ghost Train now on You Tube. Hoping for more, like the whole show!

I totally agree. The "Danish version" is beyond beautiful and Gary Brooker´s voice was at its zenit then.
Oh my gosh "Ghost Train" from the Prodigal Strangers album. Sounds fantastic with orchestra.
E' la musica che ci riporta indietro nel tempo dei nostri migliori anni, e quella degli anni 60 non si può descrivere per la magnificenza che irradia, STUPENDA.

Danke für das Weihnachtsgeschenk.
The powerful guitar intro of "The man with a mission" Uhh i'll miss such exellent rock groups.
It puts the newer songs on another level. The female choir Sounds amazing. I miss Gary's voice and PH.
merci , un tel plaisir !...
Bravo Gary, ci mancherai
MERCI GARY !....

Great to see the prominence of Gary's piano in the two instrumentals at the end. Brilliant renditions of Grand Finale, Repent Walpurgis and Conquistador (twice!)
Geoff Whitehorn got even better over the years.
❤❤❤❤
AWESOME
this is unreal im floored did they actually do this in 71' with this Orchestra? I saw them live in 1970 at Bill Grahams Fillmore East in NYC a highlight of my life for sure thanks .. yep i see in the liner note Bill Graham was invloved with this 91' show not sure if 71' suprised they didnt take this on tour in 71' to big stadiums would of made tons
Tra i più grandi di sempre ! Una delle voci più grandi di sempre !
Does anybody know if there was a videotape recording of the Concertmin Edmonton? I’d love, LOVE to see that for myself! (RIP, GB…you’re missed!)
Supremo. Sengano Su Gran Nivel .Soñado. 😇😇😇💖
♥️♥️🙏
Lo mejor
anybody to remaster this concert?
Incredible ❤️
Qui peut me dire le titre de la première chanson ? Merci à vous ❤
Great! Is the original concert anywhere uploaded? Thanks
Show
Comment s'appelle le 1er titre svp ?
"Ghost Train", from Gary's 3rd Solo Album : Echoes In The Night (1985)
@@h.braunschmidt214 merci beaucoup 🙏
Great organ sound and skills. Who was that man?
Don Snow, more information in the information box under the video.
What was the first song i am not familiar with all material
Ghost Train is the first song.
Some "reunion", since Brooker is the only one who was there before 😅
Maybe you didn’t get it: it’s a reunion of the band with the orchestra! 😊
@@hartmutcc63 without the band
The voice and the arrangements and srentation are the key and work great. Its not as if there now can be a real reunion so be grateful
Too bad the AUDIO is so awful !!! The symphonic show in DENMARK is 1000% better than this ....
Too bad he never took vocal lessons. He's always a little out of tune
une chanson trés bien et tout le reste de la merde
