I've had that in my favorites and that orchestra sounds amazing on this song. One of my all-time favorites.

A flat out awesome version of one of my favorite songs - God, I love that organ when it comes in... and the orchestra? Very, very nice, indeed.

And that young man turned geezer, Gary Brooker, can still hit those ridiculous high notes!

Timeless Song.. !!

And, beautiful rendition.. !!

I especially liked the Oboe Player... to a guy, there is something uniquely attractive about a Woman who plays the Woodwinds...!!

My wife played the Clarinet... I guess in an abstract way, she still does... lol

cheers!

There's quite a lot into this . Beautiful classical arrangement - B3 comes in -choir comes in. Yes!

TBAZZ...as usual a rare musical treat from ya! Can't think of anyone who doesn't like this one, a true classic!

Have you ever checked out Gary Brookers 80s solo effort "Lead Me To The Water"? Some great tunes on that as well and of course fine vocals and keys!
