OK. I'm gonna trust you on this. I just ordered it in hard cover from Amazon.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

don't know what the song is about, but it has haunted me since my teeenage years. I used to listen to it on the radio, and everytime I would light a cig thinking of my love. Then I decided to record it on tape, and loved it even more. 21 years later, I still love it. Still don;t know what it is about, but maybe it is even better this way.

Truly amazing song and performance.

Haven't got into WSOP like that for decades. Of course, I grew up with this song and heard it many, many times but it seemed even sweeter today with that ensemble. His voice has aged nicely as well.
Thanks!

Gary Booker still has that enchanting voice, every note of it is still intact.....

The Harem has always been one of my favorite bands, and that's got to be the best version of Whiter Shade of Pale I've heard.....

Thanks for posting that.....
