The organ just might be what makes that song so good. It gives me the feelies. It stays in my head long after the song is over. There's just something about it that makes me feel emotional.

Probably the best written piece of music for the organ in the last 100 years. When a piece of music can capture the essence of a whole generation; that is quite an achievement in any medium. Great rendition too.

On a Whiter Shade of Pale, the Leslie is not turned off and does not stop going around, but switched from "chorale" for the verse to "tremolo" for the chorus. The transition you quote is when the upper horn rotor slows from "tremolo" to "chorale" and the lower bass shutter rotor slows down slower. The Lower rotor takes time to spool up to speed and slow down. For a moment both rotors are out of phase and time.

Thank you Laurens Hammond! Thank you Donald Leslie! Thank you for creating these instruments . The music would never become what it is today without your inventions. That sound is insane. It really makes me losing my speech. Something is screaming, something is crying, something is full of joy in the sound of Hammond organ with leslie rotary speakers. One word - SURREAL.

I took my girlfriend to the Procol Harum and Poco concert at the Sam Houston Coliseum in the 70's and there was a small turnout so the band told all the wing seat and balcony ticket holders to come down to the floor..... and they went on to rock the place. Holy moly. True story.

Just beautiful. I have never heard a better cover of this piece. I grew up with one of these in our basement, with a Leslie speaker. My mom was a professional organist and this was the sound of my childhood. Nothing compares to the sound of this instrument and speaker.

I've listened to that song countless times. You got every last nuance spot-on. That was amazing to hear. That classical influence, and the jumps into Leslie and back out, help make that song so beautiful.

There are lots of Whiter Shade Of Pale keyboard covers on KZread, many of them quite good, but this one NAILED IT TO THE WALL. Your video has become part of my permanent Favorites folder. Laurens Hammond must have been aware of the potentially enormous improvement in tonal accuracy by using power grid 60Hz as the reference frequency for an organ, via the tonewheel induction motor spinning in lockstep with it, but did he fully foresee the sheer concentrated musical soul that would be unleashed with that insane genius arrangement of slotted disks and pickup coils in collusion with rotating Leslie horns?

Love love love. I've never heard best song played any more beautiful! Love love love to watch this man's hands and body movements as if he was the music itself. So enjoyable to hear and watch!

Correction he has a style all his own. I could watch his hands play all day! What talent with ease! So captivating

Takes me straight back to my days at boarding school, when this was the sountrack to the common room on so many Sunday afternoons (we could be quite chilled in the mid-70s!). One more thing to make me fall in love with the organ in all its guises - church, theatre, mechanical, Hammond et al.

This was (is) a truly magnificent song; but even the organ on its OWN, as played so so beautifully here, would probably have made the Top 40!

I am 73 years old. Beautiful memories !!! Great job, Rein

Excellent. I have watched this 20+ times, and you nailed it.

This takes me back to when i was 8 years old. This song and the notes arrangement of the Hammond organ are indellibly imprinted into my memory bank. 👏🦘

I learned to play the organ just so as I could play this piece of music. Without the Procal Harem record I would likely have never taken up playing the organ.

Wonderful rendition of this pop classic. My respect sir Rein de Jong, the spirit is all there, note by note. And that organ sounds beautifully.

This is my very favorite song from a time that was more romantic and easy to dance to. Priscilla

Superb. You just made a roomful of Old Hippies, Trying to Adjust, thrill to the memory of this eternal melody. It tears us up, still.

Yes, indeed. The tune is more harmonically sophisticated than I'd realized, too.

Respekt! Besser geht´s nicht! Musikalisch vom Feinsten! DANKE! So eine Detail-Treue findet man kaum noch irgendwo. Und das Wichtigste: Man kann beim Zuhören selbst zutiefst alles mitempfinden, weil eben nicht nur die Tasten gedrückt werden, sondern das Gefühl voll mit eingebracht wird in diese Musik.

There is no sweeter organ sound than that of a Hammond organ doing a huge glissando up the keyboard as the Leslie speeds up!!!! Love the sound of my own Hammond A-102 and it's 251 Leslie. :)

I had a M3 with no Leslie that I sold when I bought my A-102. It was a great little organ, wish I still had it. I've never heard of the Farfisa RSC-350. Is that a Leslie type speaker? A little trivia here. Did you know that the original recording of "A Whiter Shade of Pale" was done with a M3 with a 122 Leslie? Not a B-3. :)

Ramp up and down rates are just right in this Leslie. If the belt is too tight, the ramp up and down speeds can be to steep. The transition from fast to slow , slow to fast adds to the piece with a particular richness. I really like this rendition.

Very nice, brought back memories. Guess this was done about 5 years ago, according to the comments. I remember growing up with this group. One of many groups I did not see perform live, but always enjoyed their music.

Beautiful song! I just love it when he trips the Leslie and that organ changes pitch!! ❤❤❤🎉

Magnificent. THANK YOU for sticking to the original arrangement. The chords in this classic song were UNHEARD of on the radio back in the day. Kinda Baroque meets Booker T.

My favorite organ sound. If heard on any song, improves that song immensely! Heavenly

Something magical about a Hammond played through a Leslie.

Can't stop watching this amazing organist playing
