Default Withnail soundtrack cd
I have adored this film for many years. A friend recently asked me where he could get a sensibly priced cd of the soundtrack, amazon list it for £45. He then revealed that he actually really wanted the live version of a Whiter Shade of Pale which is used during the opening credits, but we could not find this song on any live Procul Harum album. Any ideas?

Its not performed by PH but by King Curtis, and is on the labum Live at the Fillamore, sorry if I've spelt it wrong. You can find the Cd on Amazon etc I think, I think I got my version from itunes. Good luck, lovely track.

Incidentally it was the last performance he did before he died.

Apparently the soundtrack is now so rare because the estate of Jimi Hendrix don't allow his tracks to appear on anything that promotes drug or alcohol abuse, which is pretty much the entire plot of Withnail and I.
