Conquistador - Procol Harum 1976 Live!
Procol Harum playing Conquistador Live at The German TV.. 1976
Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the music video of Procol Haram performing 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' in honor of the face that on June 8, 1967, - Procol Harum were at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'A Whiter Shade Of Pale' the group's only UK No.1.
'A Whiter Shade of Pale' written by Gary Brooker / Keith Reid / Matthew Fisher
Lyrics
"We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
She said, 'There is no reason'
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might have just as well've been closed
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
And so it was that later"
One classic Procol Harum song certainly deserves at least a couple more IMHO
