    I was so pissed when as a 14 year old in Denver in 1974 the Columbia record club sent me a tape by mistake by some band with the stupid name of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. I threw it aside and didn't listen to it for the longest time until one day out of boredom I played it and had my mind blown. All I had was a little panasonic tape playback player that I rigged to my father's old amplifier and a single 12 inch speaker cone I found in a dumpster which I held in my lap in my room made out of half the garage while this mind blowing jam played out. The awe I felt for this band has never left me.

    I remember being in the basement of a house that had a JBL paragon on one side and 2 JBL 100s ceiling mounted on the other. We were tripping and listening to ELP and tank started to play. We were really getting into it when at the end of the magnificent drum solo the huge bass note blew the system. From 120DB to zero in an instant. Paralysis set in for several seconds. I’m 73 now and I still remember that day fondly. We stayed up all night and climbed the farm field hill to see the sunrise. Just as it started to rise a herd of cows came out and one of our group said he could call them. He and they came and we were soon surrounded. A truly incredible way to end a trip.

Sebagai otodidak saya "angkat tangan" terhadap musik mereka. Artinya saya tidak mungkin memainkannya!!! Pernah kepikiran membuat gabungan "gamelan Jawa" dengan musik diatonis(THN 1992 an), tapi tidak pernah kesampaian. Tidak pernah punya teman yang se ide!! Akhirnya yang muncul hanya gamelan ber "cita rasa rock". Dan sekarang saya tidak mungkin melanjutkan. Karena usia dan posisi(saya bukan guru musik lagi, karena pendukung saya yang riil hanya murid2 saya setingkat SMP. Berbahagialah Emerson, Lake, Palmer yang mencacat sejarah musik yang gila dan menemukan penggemarnya juga!!! Saya, otodidak, Jawa, Indonesia!(usia 68 tahun).

Why, oh why did 2 out of the 3 of these amazing musicians have to pass on from this Earth? Thank God for videos and audio recordings. I would have hated to miss out on music like what EL&P consistently delivered. Carl Palmer - what an unsung hero of the rock and roll drumming brotherhood. Greg Lake - the talent just oozed from his brain, his fingertips and his gorgeously haunting and beautiful voice. And dear Keith, the man was an absolute maniacal genius at the keyboard. A master of all musical genres. I miss good music like this. Why are they not in the R&R Hall of Fame. What a gift they have been to the music world!

The Doors and Jefferson Airplane played at my HS in Van Nuys, June '67. 1st Dead show was Nov '70 at (I think) Winterland or maybe Fillmore. 2nd was at the Fillmore, 2 nights before Hot Tuna/Trinidad Steel Drum Band/Allman Bros.

      Some refer to Rap as music. The term Rap music is a contradiction in terms. An oxymoron. Music is primarily a combination of harmony and melody. There are other aspects of music such as rhythm, however, as one who was a straight "A" student in music and have played over a dozen different instruments, I have my own opinion I suppose as to what is what with regard to the subject. Btw, I'm only 69 so I consider myself a ways away from "old age"! I still work as an aircraft mechanic so when I can no longer do my job..........then I'll take "old age" into consideration.

    At the beginning of the '70s, Rock music became very much more than it had been in the '60s. I was into Hard Rock, the beginnings of Heavy Metal, Glam Rock, Southern Rock and 'Theatrical Rock'. I loved it all. But when I bought the first album release by Emerson, Lake and Palmer, I discovered that they were TRUE MUSICIANS. These guys were talented, serious and seriously talented. The music was intricate, composed by three musical geniuses. And it was ROCK! I did my teens and early twenties during the '70s(best time of my life), and got to see many bands in concert. But there were some that I didn't get to see, live, and Emerson, Lake and Palmer was one of them. So now, at 62, I get to see this well made video of ELP on CZcams.

      @@ericajohnson7535 i’ve always felt that way.. if an athlete in a given sport is useless after a certain age, the same should go for professional musicians and other entertainers. You have to reach you a point where you just can’t do as well as you used to. It wouldn’t make any sense otherwise.

    Their music was their hobby and their life. True showmanship and talent. So very sad Keith and Greg are gone. Not everyone's cup of tea, I am sure, but you cannot say they were not, all three of them, very, very talented. I have been a fan since the 70's. I so wish I had experienced them live. Nothing main stream today can touch them.

      I can only imagine rehearsals. The other two do compliment Kieth exceedingly well and bring their own genius. Lake great voice and guitar/bass player. Palmer exceptional drummer! Probably two of a handful who could have keep up or complimented K. Love it when Lake tells him to piss off when he’s playing his cute little blues acoustic number, smile 😊 they seem to be having a hell of a good time!

    Jazz Techno Punk. That's what i'd call it. A remarkable performance to hear, and thank you for posting this. I used to be an old youth and now i'm a 73 year old guy. but truly, my previous ear had only heard the released versions of ELP's music, i.e., studio versions of "in the beginning, "lucky man", etc. and i like them. But to hear this is a reminder of the exemplary music that was happening at that time, which amazes me once again to hear it here. Interesting isn't it that there's no guitar. Except Emerson's keyboard that stretches out into a many-world; along with Palmer's drums, yeah! and the monumental Lake. Thanks once again for the Live Stuff! Old Youth.

      @@tonyrosa4750 I don't think it's being mindless. At the same time, the idea of killing oneself in 1970, rather than get on your parent's hamster wheel life (remember The Graduate) was a sentiment often conveyed at that time. I'm pretty sure that's all Lake was expressing. Ironically and much more tragically in 2016, the phrase turned to reality with Keith Emerson. Perhaps on some level, being unable to play music (as he had) was exactly what prompted Emerson to take his own life. He sure was a sight to behold when performing though wasn't he?

    For those who want to know, Emerson made the noise of the rumble by activating a spring reverb unit, which when hit produces that bang. The pitch bends were made by turning the motor of the Hammond L100 organ off and on.

      ​@@nrlohan4738 Thanks to you for this comment. The L-1XX series of Hammond organs have an self-starting motor for the tone wheels, that is, turning this motor on and off varies the pitch generated by the organ. Adding overdrive to that sound, it sounded similar to a police car siren.
