This release was one of 3 albums that I bought as a kid when I got my first "decent" stereo, and I've loved it for years. Now comes this new remastered version, with 3 additional songs not included on the original. What a fantastic job they have done of remastering this awesome concert! The recording now seems louder(without being abrasive, distorted, or annoying) and it seems to have more headroom. It was a thrilling concert before, but now it sends shivers up my spine.

When Procol Harum joined forces with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra for a unique 'rock meets the classics' concert in 1971, few could have predicted it would yield one of the band's best-selling albums. However, the 'live' recording of their groundbreaking performance was a huge and unexpected hit in America. When it was released to critical acclaim the following year, the album got to Number Five in the US Billboard chart and the British group became the proud recipients of a Gold Disc. Procol Harum broke up in 1977 at the height of the punk rock era, but reunited in 1992 for a new album called Prodigal Stranger with Gary, Robin Trower, Matthew Fisher, and Keith Reid all back on the team, although their stalwart drummer BJ Wilson had died in 1989. As part of the reunion celebrations, they played another concert in Edmonton in 1992 with the Symphony Orchestra.
