#DION PALMER MUSITION FULL#

When combined however, it works perfectly. I often wonder at the fact that, if you listen to the melody and counter melody played by Emerson and Lake on this track they bear no apparent relation to each other. This effect is of course lost on the CD version. The 'First Movement' is sub-split into two parts, leading to the 'Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends' intro to side 2 of the LP. There is in fact little to connect the three movements, each being a distinctive piece on its own. The main feature is 'Karn Evil 9', a piece in three 'Movements' which occupies part of side 1,and all of side 2 of the album. Posted Thursday, Febru| Review this album | Report (Review #14367) In itself this is still a classic but to me, this is not essential and rarely listen to it. Toccata is another of the re-working the classics and Bouncer is yet another ragtime piece - Boooring!!! Actually the only thing I can still ear is the Lake-penned Still, You Turn Me On - the obvious commercial track.īest avoid starting with this album as this might put off the newcomers. I also hate the fake carrib steel drums (and if they are real, I hate them also) in the third movement. But they did!!Karn Evil 9 is, of course the highlight but I find it over-long, intently difficult and relatively obtuse in purpose and self-importance - (Welcome Back My Friend To The Show That Never Ends) - surely this track never ends. I believe that ELP was still faithfull to themselves as they did this album with great care but probably were too confident that they could do no wrong. This is the album where ELP goes overboard as Yes did with Tales Of Topographic Ocean or Jethro Tull with A Passion Play. Apart from the stunning fold-out artwork sleeve, there are IMO some major flaws with this album. Most ELP fans vote for this one as their fave album and it is easy to see why. Posted Wednesday, Febru| Review this album | Report (Review #14366)Ģ,5 stars because it is a peak in progressive rfock in its own way, but I'm not sure this is a positive way. THE album you must get from ELP and unfortunately.the only one. It's like two poeple fighting over a church organ.īuy it and play it LOUD, loud is important sometimes. Is there another thing to say about Karn Evil 9? Well, the first 2 and a half minute are crazy. It's funny, and the accent of Lake is very pronounced (sounds like Coronation Street, but meaner). I don't care what poeple are saying, I like Benny the Bouncer. It's powerful, pompous and could be classified as an anthem. Jerusalem is somewhat a reprise from an English patriotic song. You know when you get the feeling that a band was before their time? Well, by hearing carefully these guys, you get that feeling all over this BRILLANT album.Įven if you don't like the keyboard-based type of prog, this record set the bar very high and commands respect from 0:00 'till the end.
