Tarkus - Eruption. Matt Riddle, keyboards

With so many other fine renditions of Tarkus on youtube, this really is redundant.
I just wanted it on my resume. Enjoy : )

Great Job... I was waiting for Greg to come in with the vocals right at the end :-)

@bubblabu man, that would've freaked me right out!

cold as ice

@Spudboy41 if more passion is what you're after, check out my performance of Chopin's Revolutionary Etude.

Outstanding. Excellent rendition. Not an easy piece. And you seem to have figured out all the notes correctly. You are very talented. I wish I had the time to sit down on my hammond and simply play. Next life.

@electrongas thank you very much! i don't really have time for this stuff either but i make time anyway for things like this occasionally. i'm going to spend more time on original music some but that doesn't pay the bills either.

This is really GREAT!

@Calti10 thats pretty much the tempo of the studio version. ELP themselves played it slower in the early 90s

[AgoAnselmo]

GREAT!! :D

Very very good job!! ;-)

[wilecuyote]

@Calti10 thanks! i can play it faster, but i like the musicality of the original studio tempo which is what my goal was, a faithful recreation of the original. no more or less.

[Calti10]

it's really good...maybe a bit slow but a great rendition nonetheless :)
