Seen Procol Harum at the Eastown Theatre in Detroit. The Eastown was kinda like the Fillmore East minus the Joshua Light Show, which by the way is a BIG MINUS!!! hahaha All the bands that played the Fillmore East ended up one way or another at the Eastown Theatre. Procol Harum had the unfortunate luck to headline with J.Geils backing them up. Procol did proceed to play one of the best concerts that night!!! Robin Trower was so frickin' young, that SG was almost bigger than he was--haha But he played the Shit outta it!!! A Great Band!!!

Carlos Cea

Robin Trower certanly is great here!! Simply the best!!

John Giorgione

Spectacular progressive rock. One of the best from Procol.

Henry Schoonyoung

I was there. Whenever they played Fillmore. The best band!

Saw the origional lineup, when "A salty dog was already, or about to be released..Storrowtown Musicial Theatre, W Springfield Mass!!!

Oh, how I wish there was video of this version with these members - Brooker, Fisher, Trower, Knights and BJ was by far the best lineup. Ever. Nobody could combine beauty and power like PH. At least, not according to my befuddled brain...

Marisa Raimondi

Per ricordarli non soltanto per salty dog e whiter sade of pale. ..buon ascolto Community! 

Paul Bennethum

Trower left after Broken Barricades actually.

Sam Matos

This is my preferred version of Repent Walpurgis. The lead guitarist Robin Trower pours himself totally out.

Jack Ponissi

They always did AWSoP in the '60s (and from the '90s onward), often avoided it in the early '70s, after MaF had left the group. I don't think any official source about why Knights was replaced is available, but everything points in that direction. As Brooker once said, I think he "was a good man", he provided a solid bassline and that was OK, as my former bass player said "he never had any fun", seldomly improvising at all.

@papajohnloki Ah, OK.No problem…Yep, it's quite bad when compared to the others!

papajohnloki

My apologies at a feeble attempt at humor - I simply meant that the last photo of Dave was not the best compared to the other photos. Sorry.

Jack Ponissi

@papajohnloki "Poor"? What happened to him?

papajohnloki

Also,I like the photo montage altho ...poor David Knights

If that was the same concert I went to I do remember the swearing and the were recording comment,the rest of the concert they played as well live as on record, real professional, . You should get more than763 hits, maybe it takes time. COOL

Only 763 views? 4 likes? I've often told my daughter that today's musicians are,as a rule, much more technically proficient than those of my generation(I'm 63-she's almost 21) and the instruments and equipment are so far superior that there is virtually no point in making comparisons. However, none of that necessarily equates to being better and this piece and performance is almost a perfect example.
