Well, I have the same opinion, but these guys are just TOO NICE ;-) They will pay all the costs of making these tapes by their self, just to present you their awesome music.

I have > a feeling he said them to kinda get back at the guy who replaced him. Well, I know (because I've heard boots of early stuff with Mustaine) that Kirk's solos on Kill 'Em All were written by somebody else before he was in the band (by Mustaine, I assume). It seems that Burton was the only one in the group who knew shit from shinola, musically, so I'm inclined to believe that he wrote Hammet's solos for Ride the Lightning/Master of Puppets. -Brian "Some things are expensive because people are passionate about them.

Just about any ELP fan you'll ask will tell you to start with "Brain Salad Surgery." It's got the full version of Karn Evil 9 (more than just the 5 minutes you hear on the radio), as well as some other ELP staples. (I forget which now, since the CD is at home.) Of course, you could do what I did. Get a Greatest Hits CD, and decide from there which albums to pursue, based on what you like most.

Naziesque seminar administrators forcing instrumentalists to overcome their playing difficulties? "Those aren't 32nd notes!! What the fuck's wrong with you?"

(extremely feeble attempt at humor...those who know what Est is might get it) On a more serious note...what if DT made a video for New Millennium, it became a hit (which I think is very possible), and they did an MTV Unplugged special?

Well from what I've read on here, Brain Salad Surgery is suppose to be one of the ultimate progressive cds around. since I've gotten a real computer here at work, one with a cdrom drive, I decided to go through my whole cd collection and bring 5-6 cds a day to work until I have listened to all 600+ of them... I'm currently at the D's so that means a lot of DT, Dokken, and Def Leppard...

Get - Ladies and Gentleman "Welcome Back my friends to the show that never ends". It IS a very good live album. (2 cd) - Triogy (this one has Hoedown) - Brian Salad Surgery (If I'm correct this one has Karn Evil 9) Albums from "Love Beach" until now are pretty commercial and boring.

I would suggest pick up "Brain Salad Surgery" next, and after that, "Trilogy". These are both great albums. Then you might want to pick their self-titled album, and then move on to their later stuff.

"Brain Salad Surgery" is one of the all-time very very best progressive albums. The "ELP" self-titled first album is also highly recommended-lots of piano & Hammond organ; less synthesisers-this is from the early days of the Moog. "Trilogy" is also quite good, almost on a par with title piece from "Tarkus". -Randall sent: 5/1/98 4:18 PM PDT email: email_address_removed **"great is the forest, set by a small flame, like a tongue on fire, no one can tame" from 'Fire in the Hole' by Gary Cherone/Van Halen; see James 3:3-6** ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 1 May 1998 18:37:34 -0500 (CDT) From: Robert Linus Koehl To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: Emerson Lake and Palmer Message-ID: On Fri, 1 May 1998, George Tryfonas wrote > I'm looking for a good Emerson, Lake & Palmer album but since I've only > gotten into them recently, I wouldn't know where to start.

Hi, I'm a die-hard ELP fan, and I'm glad you asked :):):) I've got the entire cataloge, and my opinion is that "Black Moon" and "Live at the Royal Albert Hall" are the best. Also great are "Works Volume One," and if you liked Tarkus, you'll love "Trilogy" and the self titled debut album. "Brain Salad Surgery" has some really cool moments, but drags here and there. AVIOD "Works Volume 2" and "Love Beach" at all costs!!!!!!!! They royally suck.

The last date,in Bourges, James had a bad cold and only sang for half the show, but it just made you wonder if he can be bad someday. i thought I had to share that with you. On another matter: I have a copy of the cd "Scenes from a memory" but I don't have the explanation paper that should be inside, can anyone tell me where are the songs on that cd coming from. Also, I never understood where those numbered cds were coming from ( I only have two of them) as I don't think they are bootlegs. Can I also have some explaining on that matter?
