Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade Of Pale
Description
Original 16mm Scopitone conversion, from the 'summer of love' 1967 hit record, remuxed and refurbished in 2006 (I should re-upload in higher quality, I know, I will when I find the time to search my harddisks and stuff..). Fixed audio-sync as well. Sound engineer of this famous mono mix was Keith Grant. Vocals and piano played by Gary Brooker, Matthew Fisher played the Hammond organ, and these original lyrics were written by Keith Reid;We skipped the light fandangoturned cartwheels 'cross the floorI was feeling kinda' seasickthe crowd called out for morethe room was humming harderas the ceiling flew awaywhen we called out for another drinkthe waiter brought a trayand so it was that lateras a mirror told its talethat her face at first just ghostlyturned a whiter shade of paleShe said: "There is no reasonand the truth is plain to see"but I wandered through my playing cardswould not let her beone of sixteen vestal virginswho were leaving for the coastand although my eyes were openthey might just as well've been closedand so it was that lateras the miller told his talethat her face at first just ghostlyturned a whiter shade of pale..Copyright Disclaimer; Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
