Aside from Long Gone Geek, my favorite Procol song is Whiskey Train. Used to play it in one of my first bands. It's a little something for the drummer, lol, not to mention the great guitar riffs. We used an old empty bottle of JD. I always thought it'd be a great song to cover and play live. I was surprised at the time that nobody had covered it already. Turns out, a few did, I must have missed it!

I still prefer the Trower version, just rocks.
Hmmm, didn't see this one, Leslie West version, interesting:

Nope, still like Trower the best, lol!
And that brings up another classic:

Robin Trower really gave that band a whole new sound.

That's cool about the Selmer; I haven't had the pleasure of even seeing one of those. Closest I've got is '65 Vibrolux. I just ordered some new speakers for it, hopefully get it closer to original. Back in the 90s I made the mistake of getting Fender stock speakers. TOTALLY wrecked that amp, lol. I need to go through the whole thing, anyway.
I have seen that Floyd vid, classic! Speaking of "favorite bands that sound awful". . . .Lol, just kidding. But definitely a very different band compared to later.
Years ago, I bought Uncut magazine, specifically 'cuz they included a cd sampler of 60's acid rock bands in that particular issue. Syd has one song on it, Octopus. I noticed in the u tube playlist, though, it says "this video not avail." Anyway, pretty good album overall.

I was gonna ask what the term "brown bread" was, I hadn't heard that before, but did a quick search, gotcha. Yeah, the older we get, the more we see that happening.

I actually got to meet Rick Derringer, a lot shorter than I thought he'd be! lol, everybody looks bigger on stage, I guess. 8)
