Carl Palmer said in an interview that he was a Classicly trained drummer. We were truly blessed to have had Keith, Carl, and Greg's genius, and for them to share their genius with us.

Carl was also a jazz trained drummer. He was touring with Big Bands (Glen Miller style) as the drummer at age 14. From Carl Palmer's Biography: "At age 14 Carl Palmer joined his first professional band, a six-month stint with The Mecca Dance Band, for which he was paid a whopping 23 pounds a week. At 15, Palmer enlisted in the Motown influenced King Bees along with Richard King on guitar, Len Cox on bass and Geoff Brown on lead vocals. The band would later be known as The Craigs."

Emerson was definitely one of the (if not THE) pioneers of prog rock keyboards and showmanship.

I saw Emerson Lake and Palmer in 1971 yes opened up the show I saw the Brain Salad Surgery tour in 1974, I saw them again in 1976 Journey opened up that show, I saw them twice in 1977 and finally for the decade in 1978 period of course I saw them several times in the following decades but the 1970s was truly their Golden Era and the ones that are nearest and dearest to my heart😊

ELP was covering Rondo, which was a Dave Brubeck composition covered by Keith Emerson's previous band, The Nice. If you liked this check out The Nice version of Bernstein and Sondheim's America. Keith's genius was definitely unique in rock. In ELP he still used the Hammond but really was the first rock keyboardist to experiment and use the Moog synthesizer to its near full potential. Palmer played with Atomic Rooster and Arthur Brown before ELP and still tours. His band is a must see before it's too late. Lake came from King Crimson. This was one of the first so called Super Groups, like Cream, Asia, etc. All virtuosos.

I saw them 5 times and was blown away each time. You must dive into in the ELP rabbit hole because there’s a whole treasure trove of brilliance to be heard.
@quentinmichel7581 Жыл бұрын
Funny thing about the Hammond at one point early on when he got the machine he'd written the Hammond company and asked them how to do certain things... create certain sounds with the machine... and Jaiden brought him back and said that it wouldn't be possible with their product. I guess you didn't listen to them because a few weeks later he sent them back a tape of those exact sounds. 😊 The man was a beast on all keys. RIP Keith.

I had the privilege of seeing ELP live 5 times. As incredibly talented and popular as they were, the alleged Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame has refused to induct them, instead inducting Rap bands and Country artists and thereby rendering the RRHOF absolutely useless. Anyhoo, I hope you’ll delve further down the ELP rabbit hole. You’ll enjoy it. 👍

Just wait until you see the real kicker! There were, I believe, several concerts where Keith Emerson strapped himself to a grand piano, and the piano literally ascended into the air, then flipped over lengthwise several times, all while Keith continued to play! Then the piano sank down to the stage again. There are videos of this.

Keith Emerson would never damage the Moog Modular, Hammond B3, or Steinway D. It’s fair to say that he voided the warranty on the Hammond L100, though. I think his roadie had spare plastic keys to replace the ones that were broken by knives the night before.

You say ‘that good in 1970’ basically in 1970 you had to be good, even pop by Marc Bolan was great live, you had to do it on tour to promote your music. King Crimson next but loads to do yet with Elp. Remember it’s Greg Lake on vox bass and guitar. You can hear Greg shout out, egging them on. Greg said Keith would ALWAYS speed up as the gig went on and he and Carl would laugh at each other trying to keep up.
