Formed in 1970, Emerson, Lake & Palmer helped define and set new standards throughout one of the most ambitious and experimental periods in 20th-Century popular music. Drawn from The Nice, King Crimson, and Atomic Rooster respectively, they were hailed as progressive rock’s first supergroup. Combining driving dynamics, intricate arrangements, and virtuosic skill, between 1970 and 1978, ELP released seven studio recordings and three live albums. Such was their popularity on both sides of the Atlantic that their records repeatedly achieved Platinum status sales.

I definitely prefer the version from the Welcome Back My Friends album!
unrepeatable
Too bad Hochul ruined it. From WNY, loved the Adirondacks too. Now hate going back there knowing how things are run with dirtbags like her in office.
At age 72 wish I could go back to the 1970's. Still have the original album. There is no going back. The grave awaits us all.
I think Aaron Copland did it better.
The guys going into a samba during the Aquatarkus improv,,, fantastic,,,,
OK I found what inspired Nobuo Uematsu for the final movement of Final Fantasy VI's final boss theme "Dancing Mad"!
You guys were my very first concert...I must have been 14 or 15 years old......you still have my heart.......
I love USA. Am can but beware threats are coming .... I wish elp could solve our probs... Love the bass
Is English not your native language...or are you a bit inept?
Me, stoned to the bone
Wish our kids had such a life unfortunately we have a woke corrupt government denied this to them
Great song, good times, good people,
Back in the day, this was real Progressive Rock! 😏😋
Very few musicians can play such complicated material live with almost zero mistakes. Most bands need heavy post production prior to release a live album. When ELP were at their peak they were unbelievable.

Not many artist's these days can even play an instrument. Such a Lucky Man we were. lol
So glad I got to see these guys live a lot of times. Loved every minute.
WE 😍 YT and ELP! 🇦🇹
BOOOOM DEMAIS OUVIR
The song takes you right back to the..70's...ya..i was right there...good times..good memories..😊❤💯
And the tragedy that Keith Emerson and Greg Lake passed away within about a year of each other🥀 All these years later folks are saying Hey, theses guys were great musicians! Hell yeah! Keith Emerson took his own life at 71 years old because he developed a neurological condition that prevented him from playing the piano. He didn’t deserve to be in the fatuous rock and roll hall of fame? This man was a keyboard virtuoso. He loved music. Not to be disrespectful, we’re not talking David Lee Roth. Sadder still, Greg Lke died March 2016; Keith’s Emerson took his own life December, 2016. Go ahead, piss on prog rock, but don’t forget who you’re pissing on🥀
1973 was a great year at the Salt Palace. I got to see so many but ELP was unforgettable . I got into building so many sound machines and a few guitars. Today at 68 electronic music is something I still do. The microchips can do so much in a small space where I had bedroom size gear back then.
A quick death is a lucky death sometimes. Many people suffered for decades and then die. That's much worse. In the coming big war that is WW3 the quickest death is the best you can get. Dying from radiation sickness for days, weeks or months is much worse. Surviving in a shelter for months and then dying due to hunger or thirst is unlucky too. Surviving in a long term shelter that can provide for generations for many people seems to be not that bad. But considering human nature, the descendants of the survivors after 1000 years will be very different from us.
I was 13 in early 1971 when I first heard the Moog section of this song on the radio and I was immediately sold on ELP, synthesizers and Prog overall. Keith Emerson, The Maestro, became - and will always be - my music idol. The fact that ELP is not in the RRHOF is no longer as insulting as initially was because the Hall has long forgotten its roots. The anti-establishment hippies are now running the joint in the name of commercialism and money. ELP will always stand tall on their own considerable merits. 🎹🎸🥁
❤❤❤
And the award for emptying a stadium in record time goes to...
The boys changed the axes and swords and now guitars and key boards.
C etait un sound check pour leur spectacle au mois août 1977 J étais au spectacle mais le son était horrible Mais c était quand même tout un show
Great performance then I heard the live version from Milan 😳
I sang along with this song back then, and now, at 66 I sing it in a band trying to do it justice
Meravigliosi
There was a ELP before Dream Theater .
ELP and LSD my favorites .
If that don't get u amped. Nothing will
Listen at x1.25 speed
...it sounds like some RACHMANINOF'S passages... ...variations, call them ...
The concert where no one turned up! Guess it must have been too cold. Shame. 🥶
When you do a song that predicted the future of AI today, you know that Emerson Lake and Palmer are more than just grandfathers of progressive rock, they are prophets.
Marked Safe...from the 60s😎❤️
Nice 😋😊 I REMEMBER 😊
The band that was to sophisticated for punk rockers
Remember who on earth you are. That hits.
The bands of yesteryear had unmatched imaginations, talent and brilliance that flowed like water for about 30years and it will never be duplicated again , i was lucky to haved lived with the the greatest music ever . coming up in the 60s and 70s just can't be explained. Not to mention the cars and hotrod's that were every where .
Such a beautiful song! ❤️
Irripetibili
What a hauntingly beautiful song ❤
My first introduction to ELP was samples used by "Fluff" Freeman on The Beeb on his radio show. I've been hooked on ELP ever since
I born in 1973. But i heard this kind of music in old movies 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
La finesse du jeu de Palmer est remarquable et m'a toujours impressionné. Comme quoi on peu produire de grands chefs-d'œuvre en étant que trois. Je comprends mieux aujourd'hui pourquoi ELP restera un groupe mythique et iconoclaste dans l'Histoire de la musique moderne.
Should have been in the Hall of Fame YEARS AGO 71 years old….. Still listening. Phenomenal Grew up in the SWEETEST TIME EVER ! And the music ….. The Songs Remain The Same! ROCK ON BOOMERS !💜🌹
