So Holy and beautiful!

Brooker was a selfish prick when it came to acknowledging Matthew Fisher's contributions to this great anthem.

Almost any time I hear this masterpiece tears are welling up into my eyes. This certainly has a very v e r y special meaning. Eschatological. . . LOVE to all Philip Glass fans out there . . .

The organ & drums are what make the song.

Also here after Rick Beato comment, though I play brass

Sad that they didn’t just share all funds equally in the first place as a band that’s true way to go on all though greed always gets in the way with many bands

Cosmic music for my cosmic journeys. Love it !!!! Cheers Orla, its a beautiful piece

Quick recommendation on KZbin: Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade of Pale, live in Denmark 2006 Spine-tingling performance, and something very special.

Años hacía que no la escuchaba, cierro los ojos para sentirla más.

I can’t even recall the vocal melody, but the organ anytime of the day

Matthew’s inspiration is Bach’s BWV 645. There is also a cantata version - the chorale of Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme BWV 140.

Presented by Jon Snow lol

Rick Beato

Credit well deserved

Incredible, just thinking about the odds for this to happen. For all those just about to faint on curiosity to ear Mr Matthew Fisher playing it live solo😳 kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqHPiopjbqtroKs

Im here because of Rick Beato.. Thank you for contacting him Mr. Fisher

Transcendent music

If bands would just give credit honestly in the first place, they wouldn't have to be bothered by court trails years later. Strange angle this news piece took. Very Upper Crust vs. Mere Peasants tone.

Reporter: "And even with today's success, he sounds bitter about it all." Imagine hearing your major contribution to a classic song and not being credited for it, and getting kicked down the royalty stairs for 40 years. She thinks that he should be jumping around like an American cheerleader? She's clueless. Meanwhile Brooker says he wants his name taken off the credits if Fischer's name gets included. Yet she doesn't toss HIM a bitter. Sounds like she's tossed with him prior.

July 67 i did heard this music ,was a french kid playing with cars ....It was the organ 's theme which hit my ears ,not Gary 's voice ,nor complex Keith 's lyrics !!!!! One month later did try to learn the organ part by ear ,no i'm a pianist ....69 years old .i would confirm it was the organ part which knocked every one ,it was Matt who brought totally the hammond sound in popular music ,far more than Winwood ,Mc Lagan,or G.Bond!.i always called Matt's compositions " the other side of procol ",rather prefered " wreck" than "salty" ,everywhere Matt played the M103 ,he made it sound like a cinema'organ .One of my 3 fave Uk' s oganist ,with underrated unique sound of Rick Wright ,and unique player with bass pedals ,with huge imagination ,Hugh Banton.Matt deserved thèse royalties ,it ain't only justice ,it IS heardable for any musician .

What a snarky interviewer..

Philip Glass walked so Haha Zimmer could run. I wish more people knew about him.

Matthew Fisher lutou pelos seus direitos parabéns pela conquista merecida 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍💥🌅🌄🥰🥰🥰🥰

this work and A salty dog, are like the centerpiece of a vast oceanic opera, truly inspired !

Nice version of this song. Note: It appears first on the unreleased Eric Clapton album Turn Up Down (1980) before finally being released officially on Lead Me to the Water (1982)

Ese órgano es el sello del tema, merecido!

Immer noch klasse!

Awesome, great job.. hammond organ 🎉💦🌿💥💫🎆

Mein Freund Herm, der war ein Stewart......Fernweh! Superschön!

The organ is what immediately jumps out and grabs the listener on this song. It MAKES the song so great. He deserves this, 100%.

What Gary Brooker said...

Brilliant!

❤

Larga vida a Matthew. genio

swear to god Brun just hits diffirent

You are on it Gary ......Thx for your Talent ....You Really were Touched !!!

I love this version of Scarborough Fair so much! No one else sings it. No one could do it as well as they do anyway.

Fischer

is he also the composer of She Makes Me Feel?

Meravigliosa

There's no sense in being greedy if it wasn't for the Oregon the song is nothing

i think the drummer (Bobby Harrison) should get these credit as well..the drum beats are so iconic.

I heard it for the 1st time at the Congregational church in Redlands CA. It literally gave me chills. It was my favorite piece that day. So beautiful

I love this version, much more than the commonly known version!

Secondo me,dal movimento pianistico di questo splendido brano, poco più tardi i GENESIS era PETER GABRIEL si sono ispirati per comporre THE RETURN OF THE GIANT HOGWEED almeno così io PENSO!!!!!! Davvero un grande pezzo questo WRECK OF THE HESPERUS dei mitici PROCOL HARUM!!!!!!!!

What a great piece.
