This is probably the most well-known of all Procol "boots". Here however, we have the full show (including Procol's last 2 numbers), in glorious sound. This is not from an over-the-air recording. Almost certainly this is a "pre-FM" recording.

Oh, Yes!!!!!!!! The more Procol Harum, the better. Keep 'em coming.
Thanks for this one - it is really good. I got these sessions some years ago in another version, but this one is with a better sound.
Cheers
My copy is 60:47 mn long (and it has the same twelve tracks), strange, isn't it ?. I will DL it to compare.
I agree : it's a fantastic bootleg. A real must have for any Procol's fan. Such a sound quality for a 1971 recording is impossible to find (except the (official) Musikladen and Beat Club recordings).
Another must have bootleg is the K-Zew FM (Dallas) recording from july 4th 1974. Same quality and great performance too.
thanks,can't wait to hear it!
This version is even better than mine. Sup quality sound.
Probably a lower generation tape. Or maybe mine wasn't the Pre-FM version but an old recording direct from the broadcasting.
Anyway I am glad to have this one. A Fantastic boot.
Thank you Dave.
Hey Ho!!!

Thanks for the early-Harum. I have the Easter Island recording somewhere, so will be nice to hear some more live sounds from the Trower era.
Amazing to finally hear this in such quality .. great show
