WELCOME BACK MY FRIENDS TO THE SHOW THAT NEVER ENDS

What an exhausting album!! It continuously proves to be one of the best live albums ever, but there are complaints. complaints: Karn evil 9 is in a different key....for greg lakes vocals i suppose, but it leaves room for disapointment, especially because key changes are usually used when a band has run its course and the singers (from years of unprofessional practice). Tarkus is a bit sloppy. And little bits of the albums have tad bits of studio magic missing (lcuky man, still you turn me on)and the biggest negative point: the sound quality is poor,but occasionaly gets better through out the album On the positive end, It has great bits by each player, and the quality of human playing is what makes it in the end. Emerson shines here, with lake and palmer doing their thing nicely as well.
