They most likely wanted to keep the mic hot, but since I can be an armchair sound engineer, the pick sounds could have been a little less in your face.In retrospect, all involved at the sound board probably would agree. Maybe they check out youtube and will give us the behind the scene point of view.

@hairball1726 well then they should have placed the guitar mike better so as not to pick up so much pick noise...

38 yrs later I am a Greg Lake Fan. Phenomenal voice with a great sound engineer no doubt.

What a great sound. I have to agree that the sound guys did a fantastic job, but they had a lot of talent to work with. The guy was better than I remembered.

indeed . John Lennon was the pioneer of chewing gum and singing .

@clditmer1 davvero assurdo !!!....

@rmtmiller You got that right saying Greg Lake was hot ;) Ha! I just wanted to give the sound engineers some credit ! Hey, I like looking at the 'racecar' video here on YT where Greg drives #11 car. You've seen that one right? Greg is as good looking, if not more, than Jim Morrison.And Carl Palmer was also hot in that short shag haircut. Keith Emerson always looked "foppish" to me.But that was the style then in the 60's. In the 60's and 70's men were better looking than now.

All the seeds of his later disintigration are here in embryo (like one of those computer projections of thirty years on). But likewise - so is his casual 'off the cuff' genius.
Yes Greg Lake was phenomenaly talented. He had star quality, along with that beautiful, handsome voice. But without a good sound engineer, especially live, you are scr-w-d. A good sound engineer can make, or break you. Beautifully done, my hat is off to the sound engineers !! They put the echo on the word WAS. Well done. Nice job on all of it. Good sound.
