The Palers' Band at the LA Palers' Festival (4)

Pictures from Jan Vincent


 

Rehearsal: Jens pauses during the compilation of his video film

Rehearsal: Donna's tambourine keeps us all in order

Rehearsal: Jeremy gets to play some nice bass on One Eye on the Future ... flight cases in the foreground

Neal Fischer's banner is erected to advertise our party to the habitual patrons of BB King's Club

It wafts mildly on the air-conditioned breeze

After the Procol show, back at BB King's Blues Club: banjoist Rodger Phillips, photographer Jan Vincent
and multi-instrumentalist Dennis Fetchet with one of the BtP webpersons

John Crouch and his bass, with three revellers from the previous illustration

A performance shot: Procol Harum have played their five songs at the Palers' Festival,
and now 'Shalimar', sing Dennis, George, Tito, Marvin, and others obscured

Ditto ... with Jeff also scrambling for that mic, and Gothic in the background

Various members of Procol Harum listen to Whaling Stories ... it's gone 1 am and they had been on the point of leaving when the opening chords were heard, and the Commander kept them holding on

Some gestures of triumph. Nobody noticed apparently at the time how much we were speeding up!

Action detail of that final, climactic Whaling Sortie: Charlie on drums, Gary on guitar

There is no shortage of similar shots. In the foreground, a BB King's club teeshirt, splendidly autographed by all the Palers' Band, and by Procol and their crew, and the Wilson sisters ... now on a wall in Bristol ...

Not sure quite why the maracas are in evidence, Beatle!

Kerry Holloway, One-Eye, DJ No 6, and John Crouch prepare to sing. Donna's in her element !
