Emerson, Lake & Palmer -Mussorgsky -Pictures At An Exhibition

[moonySK]

The man staring at Greg...look at his face at 5:24...I did that too. :)

[curbowman]

Incredible how Greg could sing those big intervals with perfect intonation! No computers here!

[77older]

Что тут скажешь? Слов нет... Нужно слушать и слышать.

[77lks]

Se un angelo un giorno scenderà sulla terra ci parlerà con la sua voce

[MrDrummerpony]

god i played this album to death whehn it came out lol fucked up my stylus and had to do a paper round to get a new one.those were the days.......

[BMIGuitarist]

Majestic.

[ZoahLord]

They stuck this recording on a free CD with Classic Rock 11 years ago. First ELP thing I really noticed \m/

[Nervion89]

de culto.

[50JorgeLuis]

La concentración perfecta para la música perfecta.

[dcwetern]

bored

[mallard4998]

@dcwetern ???...moron

[chibigon6]

EXCELENTE ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[c0ven666zupa]

this is mistake

[Existentialexplosion]

Wow! Super video quality! thanks!

[Bruchag]

Post Nice post King Crimson post A Brown...via Modest to perfection (o)

[mikeg888]

These guys were talented all around! Saw Lake and Emerson last year in the small venue and had a chance to actually speak to them! Very welcoming guys and as talented as ever. I hope they do a reunion.

[TOSZEKBRUNO]

Guys at 5:13 -the best recommendation :)

[2poziomka]

Greg's voice is amazing.

[alinkamode]

ааааааа..он бесподобен! последние три недели только это и слушаю!)

[stefanborkos]

gewoon super.

[PChemato]

The only talented thing in was Lake's voice and guitar.

Emerson sounds and will be always sound anachronic on those huge analogic keyboards and nothing but lesse than average talent (the guy form Genesis is much better . Today he sounds like shit.

Palmer is nothing but average...

All in all, they mean nothing today.

[SteadyRocker12]

@PChemato Obviously you are too young or ignorant of the body of works ELP produced throughout the years.

Go back to your Justin Bieber CD!

[MacI568]

@SteadyRocker12

You're an idiot. He's telling the truth, and I was an ELP fanatic back when I was 16.

[divyx]

I've always loved Lake's voice.

[rmtmiller]

What is essential is invisibile to the eye. But you sure can hear it in his wonderful voice.

[hcast2005]

he Sage -------- I carry the dust of a journey that cannot be shaken away It lives deep within me For I breathe it every day. You and I are yesterday's answers; The earth of the past came to flesh, Eroded by Time's rivers To the shapes we now possess. Come share of my breath and my substance, and mingle our stream and our times. In bright, infinite moments, Our reasons are lost in our rhymes.

[hcast2005]

Promenade --------- Lead me from tortured dreams Childhood themes of nights alone, Wipe away endless years, childhood tears as dry as stone. From seeds of confusion, illusions darks blossoms have grown. Even now in furrows of sorrow the dance still is sung. My life's course is guided decided by limits drawn on charts of my past days and pathways since I was born.

[1957thack]

EH&P???? I can't  imagine it! But, J.Hendrix was on the verge of forming and joining this band before his abrupt death in Sept of 1970! I wonder if it would of been HE&P???

[rollsroyce59]

ELP shows that Juliard trained artists can rock!

[demeterschalice]

Oh God. these three . . . it's like a sexy man buffet. It doesn't seem fair that so much talent AND looks went into these three incredibly yummy packages.

[GriffinNH]

I was lucky enough to see one of the first live performances of Pictures at an Exhibition at Leicester De Montfort Hall, and it took so damn ling for the recording to come out - in fact I was on the point of asking them if we could tape it ourselves Easter 1971. However, the eventual Newcastle City Hall recording was pretty damn good, though I think the De Mont organ would have done a better job!

[JerichoDitch2]

Lake's silky powerful voice is a pleasure to listen to.... it was made for this type of music

[vogelmandrie]

Listen to the first records of King Crimson and the solo one by Pete Sinfield and discover that Greg Lake was a genius there, not here.

[oleone888]

ELP started music. Their influence was so powerful, it spanned both directions of time.

[josecarlos1955]

OMG we were all so young!

[larockeramenor]

Greg Lake touches my soul at the deepest level. He is my favorite vocalist/bassist in all of Prog Planet.

[MrOrlandodude]

There's no group right now (2011) who makes this excellent music I mean No one...

[rmtmiller]

He was stoned, for sure.

[jtscirocco]

I'm not really impressed with their performance here. I wish the one on the album were recorded, it sparkles.

[rmtmiller]

His voice just always went so well with their music.

[timpani25]

just because i say that i don't like it does not mean that i am saying that it is bad. i just don't like it. a 42

[shackle5]

I love that sound on the piano/keyboard. God music has gone down since then.

[princecharmonpoirtoi]

BRITISH ARE LIKE PARASITES, ALL THE HAVE COMES FROM SLAVERY AND PIRACY. I AM SURE A SONG LIKE THIS WAS STOLEN TOO...

[princecharmonpoirtoi]

I did like this until I heard they were British...Ahrrckk!

[princecharmonpoirtoi]

I did like this until I heard they ewere British...Ahrrckk!

[glennw53]

They turned a hard rocker to realize maybe classical and jazz could rock also. Saw them 74. Drove from PHX to Tucson to have my mind blown with plenty of pomp and circumstance. Thank god Greg left King Crimson. The 70's had to have the most amazing artist of any decade. Sure many greats had their first lp's in 69 but the bulk of their work was in the 70's. What say you?

[mcarman150]

I love this guy, I named a son after him!

[GregERobertson]

1:30ff great . .Emerson tuning the Moog 'on the fly' ..

[foamulator]

I tear up every time I hear this....It is so beautiful!

[sotskywar]

Sank! New life Russian classic!

[TheGaylordman]

thanks for the feed, brings back many memories of the early 70's when ELP would play the whole LP as their encore, usually followed by the show-ending Nutrocker!

Thanks for the mammaries!

[ommadawnfan]

The image quality is amazing in this clip. Is it from the laserdisc?

[Koureas]

Hypnotic nostalgia

[DirtyThing20]

1:51 awesome sound..

[pepenovoaa]

mmmm esta muy biennn!!!!!

[TheBirkebaek]

Only 30.000 views? This perhaps my most favorite video on all youtube, no exaggeration - what a performance....

[mddg1515]

I got the vinyl record album in 1972 with this first came out and it blew me away. Some of the stuff Keith Emerson does get a little wild, but overall the amount of music just these 3 guys make it incredible. They always manage to stay in time which can be very hard with all that older equipment and lack of ear monitors to keep track. Greg lake shows why he is a premier guitarist and singer with a great sense of what a song requires.

[snflwr621]

WoW...this song leaves me...breathless...

[mikeb717]

Carl Palmer has been touring this year with his own band (bass and guitar and him) and they do an outstanding version of "Pictures".  The guy is 60 and still tears it up. Keith has had issues with his hands and Greg.... well, lets just say "he's let himself go".

[NeilThompson30]

To clear the ELP/Crimson gig debate - King Crimson were the support band for the Nice when they recorded The Five Bridges Suite at Croydon Fairfield Hall on the 17th of October 1969.

[davidfaubion]

this is Greg Lake, the muse we know and will ever love in awe of his work, loving energy -- timeless presence

[anuxunaru]

Una obra clásica interpretada bajo la genialidad de EMERSON.LAKE Y PALMER

[0rganizer]

I saw ELP live in concert at the Croydon University Hall, England in 1969.

The supporting group was KING CRIMSON then...

Great concert it was!

Love & Peace!

[NeilThompson30]

@0rganizer - ELP didn't exist in 1969

how could King Crimson support them? - did both bands have the same singer?

Love & Peace!

[cutis1000]

@0rganizer There's no way you saw ELP live in '69! You mean '70! Emerson was still with the Nice back in '69! ELP's second performance was at the Isle of Wight in August of '70!

[jofej444]

Nagyon kellett már!

[belour100]

HERMOSOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

[pontoeusino]

i began to know ELP listening to Pictures, and, though i have all their albums, i still think this is one of the best... actually, it is particularly important for me because it is the first "ELP-stuff" i tried to learn (at the piano)... but also the singing-parts often keep my mind quiet.. full.... i can't think anything else... i can't concentrate.. because of greg! oh, i really love his voice...

[ISamuelII]

@pontoeusino "tried to learn (at the piano)... "

How did you do one the karn evil parts?

[arashicharuka]

グレークレークはＥＬＰを盛り上げた1名彼の反戦運動とその歌声­に感銘する。日本ではこのようなメッセジ有るミュージシャンがな­ぜ出ないのか情けない。ホタルの光はイギリスの名音楽。日本も政­権交代したなら本質のイギリスを見習うべきで有る。

[pontoeusino]

@arashicharuka ... i hope i haven't misunderstood... unfortunately, i am in a similiar situation... unfortunately, it can't be helped... music in my country is so.. awful.... and i can only listen to foreign music! or go abroad!... actually, i'm not sure i've understood the meaning of your message... however, i agree with you! ;)

[Weasler455]

But while his singing skills were

outstanding, he is also a very fine

bassist and guitarist, and to further

add to his list of talents, he also

produced the early ELP albums.

[bellaemmamom]

@Weasler455 and an excellent writer

[Weasler455]

"Lead me from tortured dreams

Childhood themes of nights alone.

Wipe away endless years,

Childhood tears as dry as stone."

Incredible voice - like that of a mature

choir boy. As a singer, Lake was in a

class by himself.

[wentkat]

It's the voice of God!

[Pamela0725]

Brings tears to my eyes. Oh, how I crave to be there and being a part of them.

[lemsip]

I was only twelve or thirteen then. I hadn't been to any rock or pop concerts at that age but had been to some classical concerts so this would have been an easy introduction to rock.

[RockForSoul]

voce angelica!

[lunaram44]

subliminal...

[kotyra81]

спасибо!

это ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО

[Lyngtua]

Play along ever so good,what a feeling.

[Hector0691]

nice
