One thing you'll notice in this song is how the band plays as an ensemble. Try to isolate on the guitar for instance, he's actually doing some nice work, as well as the drumming here (fantastic) How many bands have this much restraint? It's a group of musicians playing "for" the song. I always feel humbled as a musician after hearing something of this calibre.

Agree 100% Kiri...the most underrated band of the late 60's and 70's...almost every song they did was a "work of poetry"...(ie. "whiter shade of pale")...one of my top 5 albums of all time is Procol with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra....if you've never heard it FIND IT!!...it's awesome...beautiful...and a work of poetry... :-)

I agree KdpPhila...I hate to think it's lost forever...the current bands would never even risk a song like this? Not a big McCartney fan...but do you hear a "current band" doing anything like "Eleanor Rigby?"...

After watching/listening and before I read the comments, I was thinking how this was such a great period in music and how it's lost forever. Even the best of the current crop of bands and musicians seem incapable of pieces like this.

This was one of those definite songs from its time. Absolutely fantastic - still is and I would challenge anyone to say it isn't. Just brilliant and moves me to tears every time I hear it. Poignant and beautiful - a work of poetry.
