Dave Ball guesting with the Procol Harum Project, Copenhagen, Denmark

Pictures by Thomas Raa Olsen • Saturday 15 January 2011

The January 2011 weekend that Procol Harum played in Copenhagen, former Procol guitarist Dave Ball was also in town

He got up on stage at the PH Cafeen to sing and play a scorching lead with Denmark's excellent Procol Harum Project

By way of encores to their main set, the band played Hoochie Coochie Man, Ain't Nobody's Business, and Crossroads

Refreshment time: Dave turns to chat with the Project's vocalist, Søren Borello
More about that handsome guitar here

For this set, Søren was content to play the piano only

On bass, Gunnar Midtiby

Dave and the PH Project got to know each other at 2007's Palers' Band sessions in Southend-on-Sea

Kind words from drummer Poul Achton, who's also played with Dave Ball's Ballsbreakers in Frankfurt

The crowd squeezed an encore out of these hard-working musicians: a storming Stormy Monday Blues

The end of a fantastic afternoon of music: Ball standing tall!
