Procol Harum - Repent Walpurgis

A great composition a great band, long version from 1971

[@Fernandocatan]

Some people say that I have horrible taste for music because I listen to Procol Harum, The Alan Parsons Project and Barclay James Harvest... And I must answer: I am so happy that I have such a "horrible" taste for music which permits me to understand the greatness of these 3 groups!!

That’s why it is so important to NOT listen to what other people say. I too love all the bands you mentioned. To me they are part of the modern classical composers who’s music will be listened to many years from now like your Bachs and Beethoven.

[@jeffcox720]

I stood next to Gary and his ampliflied piano in 1968 at Chicago's famous Aragon Ballroom. In that era many bands played small venues compared to later decades. One of the best nights of my life.

[@clairepanke918]

I remember seeing Genesis at the Aragon Ballroom in 1972, third on the bill to Styx and REO Speedwagon. Saw lots of great bands in that venue (general admission too): Queen, Sparks, Roxy…

[@nicknpammitchell344]

I am a life long, full time performing and touring singer and guitarist. My life is music and has been for over 40 years. My top 5 list of favorite albums of all time, which are all from the late 60s, does not include a studio album by Procol Harem, even though they are one of my favorite bands. That being said, and this may be surprising, this *exact* performance from Beat Club 1971 of A Salty Dog, and especially this *exact* performance of Repent Walpurgis from this same broadcast, is literally in my Will to be played at my funeral. This version of Repent Walpurgis from this very broadcast is absolutely my favorite, and most personally moving and endearing pop music moment of all time. I've always loved both songs, and bands that I have been in over the decades have performed both songs often, but for some reason, this particular version of Repent Walpurgis, especially when Brooker goes into the Bach "Air on a G String" part in the middle of the song, has always brought me to tears. Every time. It just did again. Treasure this very particular moment in this wonderful band's history. Treasure Gary's incredible, unique voice. Treasure B.J. Wilson, the drummer that turned down Jimmy Page to join Led Zeppelin, the drummer that created the greatest, yet most simple drum riff intro to a rock song on the studio version of Joe Cocker's "With A Little Help From My Friends". Treasure Matthew Fisher's utterly genre defining tone, touch and melodicism on the B3. Even Keith Emerson tips his hat to Matthew. Fisher Was First. Even before The Nice. And perhaps allow yourself some time to read their story in an excellent biography of the band by Henry Scott-Irvine that I came across a few years ago, called The Ghosts Of A Whiter Shade of Pale. I couldn't put it down and read the entire book in a day and a half. Sorry for the long post. I've been wanting to put those sentiments about this performance into words for years. Shine On Brightly.

My opinion - for what it's worth - BJ Wilson was not just a timekeeper when he played. He played an "Instrument" with all that implies, so the colours are completely integral to the end result. He was quite unique I think in how he played. Of course, there have been, and are thousands of drummers who play instrumentally so please don't bother listing them out here - but no one was quite like BJ. Just thought I would say that. Dave Ball (the tall Superman)

Is it just me or does anybody else hear that this particular composition they made seem to be a huge influence on Pink Floyd I just don't know what came first I think it is the song "echoes" maybe I am thinking about or something similar from that era but if Procol Harum came up with this first then Gilmore and Waters definitely was influenced by this absolutely no doubt (not a shot at them Pink FLoyd is tops and all the's guys ripped from each other here and there it's called "influences" lol.... but this is a freaking epic piece and everybody contributed greatly to it.

Just saw them in Ridgefield Connecticut. They played better than ever. An amazing night of music from one of the great bands. Somehow, they are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Perhaps their music has too much depth, too much intelligence for the simple minded that typically rule.

[@alexanderfretheim5720]

+alan dvorkis To be fair though, part of it is just that they never really had a full career. They were over by 1969 mostly because Gary Booker got in to a petty fight with Matthew Fisher over authorship of "Whiter Shade of Pale". While Fisher was not all of the creative energy of the band, he was a very essential part of the mixture without which the rest just wouldn't work.

[@strooomon]

+Alexander Fretheim Obviously, I do not agree. The did Home and Broken Barricades after Fisher left, 2 very good-excellent albums. Then Robin Trower left. Now I would agree the band lost its way a bit. Still I shall take mediocre Procol Harum over most bands. Their sound is unique. They were incredible at Ridgefield and remain one of my favorite rock bands of all time.

Matthew Fisher created this song.

[@Mysha-1789]

@@scottdavison1420 Yes, he did. The back of the first album says: “With the exception of ‘Repent Walpurgis,’ for which Matthew Fisher may be held responsible,” everything else is Brooker/Reid. However, the piano interval in the middle is J.S. Bach’s Prelude in C Major, part of his first piece in” The Well Tempered Clavier.” In 1853, composer Charles Gounod created a version of “Ave Maria” that’s sung over this piece. The studio recording truncates Bach’s prelude, but in this live recording, Gary Brooker plays the entire piece. Still one of my favorite pieces of all time.

A master percussionist who reached in and grabbed every corpuscle of my being then and does still today, perhaps more so since I'm now old enough to appreciate just how gifted he was and what a sensitive soul, almost too sensitive for this world. Would that there could have been some intervention to prevent his demise. Such a waste.

[@viljanov]

What makes this band's sound truly unique is that the main "axis of power" lies often between the keyboards and drums. In many songs Brooker's piano and BJ Wilson's drumming seem to be in conversation, with Brooker first making a serious statement and Wilson trying to argue against it with all his might. Still, they are talking about the same thing throughout...
