Curious to see Procol Harum 'in their later days'.

Grey haired oldies. 

[Michael]

I was a big fan of them in the old days, but the last album I bought was called The Grand Hotel. Although it was quite interesting, I felt something had gone missing.

The album I really loved was Conquistador (UK Release).
And the songs on that I like most were:
Repent Walpurgis
Cerdes (Outside the Gates Of)
Something Following Me
She Wandered Through the Garden Fence

They were all Uni Music students I heard, which is probably where they heard Bach's original of Whiter Shade of Pale - I've never heard Bach's original actually.

I never knew. For me they only made that whiter shade than pale hit.

Marilyn

Of course it is decadent trash muzak at level 1 (and I hope you can stand it), but I must admit that the young guy have a good voice.

Warning
Studio MTV style
The original MTV video is an underground blast with all the trad apps sex, nuns, sins, joy, bad black etc- but who cares any more about such tricks? Five, or at least four stars rating though in its basement boiler class.

I saw him interviewed once - he was quite articulate and intelligent.

I saw him interviewed once - he was quite articulate and intelligent.

I would guess that.
It is the same for him as for all, one have to find a path with a heart,
and in the music mega star business - distance to what one perform.
 "you are all alone" "someone who cares" "someone who is there" is good indications.

I know the underground music world and what they may meet. It is not that easy and it is surely the basement level. The stars that make it in that surrounding as, for example Robbie Williams and Marilyn Manson are type 2 incarnations.

This one came up today when we (odd workmates at lunch) discussed Scorpions and their great hit Winds of Change 1990.

Jefferson Starship official video of Winds of Change, 1983.

Walk softly through the
desert sands
Careful where you tread
Underfoot are the visions lost
Sleeping not yet dead

Hang on - Winds starting to howl
Hang on - The beast is on the prowl
Hang on - Can you hear the strange cry?
Winds of change are blowing by

Mountains crumble and cities fall
Don't come to an end
Just lie scattered on the desert floor
Waiting for the wind

Chorus

You got your life planned carefully
But you left out one detail
The hidden hand deals just one round
And the winds of change prevail

Chorus

Walk softly through the desert sand
Old dreams lead the way
Nothing new in the sands of time
Just changes every day

Hang on - It's starting again
Hang on - There's no shelter from the wind
Hang on - Like a fire from the sky
Winds of change are blowing by

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close,like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Chorus:
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

That's a good piece Jahn - and I like the guitar.

Yes M, they are doing a quite good performance there, outstanding video of the time, but the real core energy have left the band by that time. Better then is Grace Slicks own album about magic.

She broke down
On a highway
Miles from nowhere
It had no number
She was lost
A long way from home
She was fed up
With the routine
And you got trouble
With the man
She blew town
Blew town
With a vengeance
Painted desert
Peyote rain
Lord don't let me
Go insane
Skinwalker
Ooh
Skinwalker
Who am I
Who are you
I was only
Passing through
Skinwalker
Ooh
Skinwalker
A strange encounter
To be sure
He was wicked
He was pure
Hear him calling
He's calling for you
Come with me
Into the mystic
Come with me
Into the night
We can live
Live forever
Live forever
Painted desert
Peyote rain
Lord don't let me
Go insane
Skinwalker
Ooh
Skinwalker
Through your eyes
I can see
You have left
Your mark on me
Skinwalker
Ooh
Skinwalker
Skinwalker
Blow your horn
They're goin'
Blow your horn
Gimme crack horn
Won't you blow your horn
Painted desert
Peyote rain
Lord don't let me
Go insane
Skinwalker
Ooh
Skinwalker
Ooh
He takes you to
A sacred place
Drinks a tear
Off your face
Skinwalker
Hmmm
Skinwalker
Talk to the spirits
Talk to the wind
Hmmm
Skinwalker
Ooh
Skinwalker
Skinwalker
