Best song, ever, perhaps?

[jps]

Still one of my favorite songs. I saw them in '72 with Steeleye Span as the opening act.

So very cool to see the Hammond that prominent for a change...the LesPaul seems extra-superfluous.

Definitely a top fave o'mine. I really love "a salty dog",too.

I remember back in the day when "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" [1] was competing with Scott McKenzie's "San Francisco" [2] for the top spot on the Aussie hit parade. I loved [1] and absolutely loathed [2]. When [2] finally took over the top spot I think I actually shed a tear or two.

Certainly one of the classics, Jeff.

I still gather as much Gary Brooker and Matthew Fisher material as I can find.

You bet! I was listening to the "One More Time" version of "A Salty Dog" done live in Utrecht just the other day. Must drag out the Edmonton album for another listen too.

...you are not alone in appreciating this classic tune. Amazing thing here is that the Fabs didn't score higher in the ranking

I guess Gary Brooker has bought a fair few swimming pools over the years off the back of this one....good on him!

Yyyyeah, that's the one. That's the song we used to dance to in kindergarten (the "ducklings version"). Awww, sweet memories!

[elreydlp]

The perfect Country and Western song!

No No No No No... This has to be the greatest song ever recorded:
