When Procol Harum's Gary Brooker wanted to organize a concert to help raise money for the beautiful 13th Century church of St. Mary & All Saints in rural Surrey, England, he not only chose some of his finest musician friends to help out with the cause, but he also went on to record the event and release it on a fan club cd in a very limited run of 1000 units. This rare release Within Our House went on to become a highly collectable recording when the obvious happened as it sold out in a matter of days. However, with Gary Brooker's blessings, Friday Music is now releasing this fine live recording for the first time in North America, to go along with the extensive Procol Harum Remasters series.
Procol Harum classics like "A Salty Dog" and "Holding On" get the five star treatment from this eclectic group of musicians. Brooker's vocals and piano work are stellar throughout the recording and his emotional readings of the gospel and religious material is second to none, as his interpretation of the classic Elvis Presley hit "Peace in the Valley" really conveys the true meaning of this charitable event.
Other Procol Harum favorites like "The Long Goodbye" and the classic "Nothing but the Truth" are truly inspiring in the church environment, as the album closes with a heart rendering version of their number one classic "A Whiter Shade of Pale."
The applause you will hear from this lucky audience will attest that this was a successful night for everyone involved with this wonderful event. This newly remastered Friday Music disc bring this fine concert to light for the first time in North America. Procol Harum fans rejoice!

Listener Reviews & Comments
On Sept. 28, 1996, Procol Harum lead singer Gary Brooker organized a charity concert to raise funds for his local church, the St. Mary and All Saints Church, in his hometown of Surrey, England. The resulting live CD of the concert, "Within Our House," is a marvelous recording that's beautiful, uplifting & spiritual, as Brooker blends "church-friendly" arrangements of Harum classics like "A Whiter Shade Of Pale," "Nothing But The Truth," and "A Salty Dog" with Christian/Gospel numbers like "Gospel Train," "Jesus On The Mainline," and "Peace In The Valley." With Gary brilliantly leading on vocals and piano, he's joined by Harum members Dave Bronze on bass and Mark Brzezicki on drums, as well as the Chameleon Arts Choir & String Quartet. From start to finish this is a lovely live recording. Originally limited to 1000 copies, "Within Our House" is now available to all, for which Harum fans all over can be grateful. Thank you, Gary.
