… for me (in the 70s), through ELP’s versions of classical works I got exposed to music I’d never heard before. It’s great to compare orchestral versions of (for example) Pictures At An Exhibition with ELP’s great interpretation….
… classic rock at some of its best… his passing reminds us it’s all “TOUCH AND GO”…
A later version of the ELP classic Tarkus with Emersons own band. Still sounds great.
… and the 40th anniversary reunion concert…
peace and freedom Keith – RIP.
