A one minute short, entitled "Snatch a Stone," 😆.

Link to the full video is included.

Question. This may or may not be enough to go on but here goes. In Fanfare for the Common Man, Keith often plays a part of a classical piece I'm looking for the name of. All I can say is it's something you often hear associated with like Halloween or in a scene where someone's in a spooky looking room in a haunted mansion. Sometimes with a creepy looking guy playing the organ.

The one version I specifically recall Keith playing it on is the Then and Now version of Common Man. If you happen to know the piece I'm talking about I'd appreciate the info.

Ok let’s settle this y’all. Tarkus or Karn Evil 9?

I’m going with KE9 because it had that “wow” effect that Tarkus didn’t have for me. It also incorporates synths and has much better guitar work. But let’s hear some other opinions.

I just got In Concert 79 and looking to know what you guys think of Pictures, Welcome Back and In Concert.

(Rock Music History with Commentary) What the Riff: Podcast Episode 329 – 1972 - August: Emerson, Lake & Palmer “Trilogy”

https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/what-the-riff/id1393901187?mt=2

Wayne riffs on the third studio album by Emerson, Lake & Palmer entitled “Trilogy” from August 1972 (Fugue / From the Beginning / The Sheriff / Hoedown). ENTERTAINMENT TRACK: Main theme from the motion picture “Super Fly” STAFF PICKS: “Best Thing” by Styx — Bruce. “Rock and Roll, part 2'” by Gary Glitter — Rob. “Brandy (You're A Fine Girl)” by Looking Glass — Lynch. “Will it Go Round In Circles” by Billy Preston — Wayne. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK: “Walk in the Night” by Junior Walker & the All Stars..

This song is way more epic than I expected, and it just teases to become a parody of itself, but it fortunately doesn't. Definitely not something I would expect ELP to do though (it rather reminds me of... Iron Maiden?), still a great closer to Works Vol. 1.

I love all of Emerson's piano parts and was wondering what would be the best to learn to improve my skills as an intermediate piano player (the most complicated thing I can play atm is "firth of fifth" by genesis)

Pls

Hello! Im a new elp fan and there are some things im discovering about the lore. What im the most curious about is the car race. Like whats the context? Why did they do a race and why did the elp members participate? Did others artists/bands participate too? When and where this event happend? Thats it for now, thanks!

Tarkus, Karn Evil 9, Pirates, Piano Concerto No. 1, Memoirs of an Officer and a Gentlemen don’t exist

I am almost sure that’s Brain Salad Surgery’s cover slightly altered. (This movie released in 1977, so is very much possible)

I am aware of the Dr. Pepper commercial from 2008~, The Simpsons episode, and Karn Evil 9 1st Impression Pt. 2 playing at the beginning of an episode of That 70s Show. Do we know any other pieces of media where ELP was played or mentioned? (I’d love to make a list as a community)

the multilayered crescendo reminds me a lot of The Devil's Triangle from KC, for example

really wish abbadon had mellotron, it would sound way more epic

Anyone else hear some whispering in The Barbarian at 1:17?

Name of film please?

Saw a film in the last six years that opened and closed with the beautiful singing from ‘Promenade’.

Think it was some kind of crime film, about corruption.

The film last scenes were of someone carrying food or towels to a room or cabin in a tropical country.

Does this ring any bells please? Do you know the title of this film?

If I wanted to visit a grave, it’d be his. Rip maestro! The best he was!

Like zep, Aerosmith, The Who?

Could it be lack of guitar? Elp are my absolute favorite and didn’t get dull over the years.

Relistening to Works 2 right now and just curious if anyone knows who came up with the name and how. It's an awesome title and makes me laugh a little too at how over the top it is.

I’d like to play it on the piano but I can’t find the scores

I picked up an original copy of ELP's debut record for cheap the other day, and just got around to listening today, expecting a fairly vanilla experience compared to the version on streaming services. I came in with the expectation that the second half of the record would be different from the remix that I normally listen to , but I didn't know it would happen on Knife-Edge. I thought that it would be a simple fade-out, similarly to the extended mix, but on the record, it slows down in a way similarly to how it would sound slowing down a tape of it or slowing down the vinyl. Still trying to figure out what to make of it because it made me really uncomfortable the first time I heard it, but I guess that's what prog's all about it you look into it. Thoughts?
