Christmas Quizzes 2015

Question of the Day : 30 December


Sixth piece of the Puzzle  (think straight ... don't jump to conclusions ...)

Which Procol song (heard on the 1971/2 live orchestral album from Edmonton) apparently has an unstable title?

Which of these three 'focus-group' responses is nearest to the truth? Make a note of the red number so you can find the answer again easily at the end.

 
061
Edmonton
's original album sleeve has Look to Your Soul – but the 2015 double-vinyl reissue calls that song I Know if I'd Been Wiser
 
062
It's a trick question. In Held 'Twas in I is not, strictly speaking, a song at all, but a quasi-Wagnerian suite, or cycle, of thematically related yet harmonically (and indeed melodically) distinctive pastiches
 
063
Fairly obviously Whaling Story: the earlier issue on Home is printed as Whaling Story Volume 2

 

Resources: search 'Beyond the Pale' by clicking here and (without deleting  'site:procolharum.com') typing 'Whaling Stories volume two' and/or 'Home tracklisting' and/or 'targeted vessels' and/or '2015 vinyl'
