Rewind: Randy Bachman & the Late Gary Brooker on Legacy, Reinvention, and the Shadows of Rock History
Manage episode 489423710 series 2446760
Kyle Meredith sits down with two legends to talk about legacy and how you live with—and sometimes rewrite—the ghosts of greatness. The late Gary Brooker of Procol Harum spoke just before his passing about the band’s 50-year retrospective Still There’ll Be More, the timeless power of “A Whiter Shade of Pale,” and why Procol never quite fit in anyone’s box (except maybe their own). Then it’s Randy Bachman (The Guess Who, Bachman Turner Overdrive) discussing By George, his inventive reimagining of George Harrison classics, filled with rearranged melodies, sly tributes, and a surreal phone call from Winnipeg to Friar Park. From Lennon birthday parties in Liverpool to dodged opportunities with Clapton, it’s a masterclass in reverence and reinvention from two legends.
