On September 29, 1972, in an effort to promote their live album with
The Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and The Da Camera Singers,
Procol Harum began a six city tour in Vienna.
The band was supported by the 40-piece Munich Chamber Opera Orchestra, and
the world-famous Toelzer Boys' Choir, conducted by Eberhard Schoener. The tour continued
with gigs in Winterhur (Switzerland), Nuremberg, Stuttgart, Munich, and Frankfurt.
This rare recording captures the Vienna show.


comment: Sound quality leaves something to be desired --BUT--
this is a unique recording and should be a part of the collection of any serious Procolist.
Includes a complete, live, "In Held" with orchestra & choir.

note on the next planned torrent (about one week from this upload):
"Five & DIME, Chamber Music Extraodinaire". Ripped from
the TAKRL 1990 vinyl boot well-known to longtime fans.
This one has not been on DIME during the 3 years that I have been a member.
A really nice show, with very decent sound
(The rip must have been from an LP in near perfect condition). Interesting setlist too.
Does anyone have this from an earlier source?
Please offer to upgrade my recordings where possible and
contact me if you may have Procol material to share.


Please do not convert to MP3 or other lossy formats except for personal use.


There's too many torrents and not enough time. but ...
STILL THERE'LL BE MORE
