Song 45 ( Procol Harem - Conquistador )

I heard this track today on the radio and figured I should choose it; it is quite complex in arrangements and has kind of a brooding feel to it. I like how they use strings in the beginning then builds and builds until the song climaxes at the chorus and then begins to build again with the next verse. There is a lot going on in parts of this song, however nothing is lost in the mix and it makes a single great sound.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
