B J Wilson's drumming never fails to take my breath away. One of the true greats. Cheers!

Yes, this is just a concert. It shows that Procol has deep blues roots. A few months later they came to Poland for 8 concerts (with standing ovation at all of them). Unfortunately, I started listening to them a year later, so I never saw the band with this line-up. I only met them at Redhill, apart from BJ.

I think I was there. the mid 70's are all a haze to me now but.the Passaic theater in 1975 was in a terribly rundown area. *I remember walking down several streets of all.broken down slums. and burned down stores,. If you werent there you have no idea....but we all braved it for PROCOL HARUM!

A pity the cameras didn't film B J longer shots, maybe The Unquiet Zone was the only song where we see a bit of how great he was.

Wonderful performance. Great technical achievement. When I have passed away, they will play Procol Harum's Whiter shade of pale!
OMG I was at this concert in Chi Town I remember a TV interview just before and GB was asked about how he came down with his Lyrics and the inspiration behind them. He said I don’t know they rhymed.

A good performance from them, at this stage they occasionally plodded about, hit or miss on the road.. it's not an easy life, sometimes the spark can be elusive..but this night they delivered.

Phenomenal, but I'm going crazy not hearing all of "Grand Hotel!" I saw Procul Harum around the same time at the Academy of Music (the Palladium) in New York. I remember how surprisingly high energy these guys were, especially Matthew Fisher on the organ. Thank you for this historical gem- they don't make music like this anymore.
@arthurlevine18402 жыл бұрын
I also saw them at the Palladium at that time! The night I saw them a giant cake was wheeled onstage to mark some sort of anniversary for WSOP, lights spinning around the theater. "All those memories will be gone, in time, like tears in the rain....."

Almost without exception, the camera virtually ignored B J Wilson although he and his kit we're always center stage.. infuriating.

You seldom hear such fat sounding Stratocaster as when Mick Grabham plays. I think it's partly to him using the british Wallace amps.
