I listened to the Three fates courtesy of your MP3 collection - Not very impressed at all - Somebody told me the church organ was awesome - sorry but it's the worse use of Church Organ in ANY prog work...............

H'm Lets see now....Having the complete Organ works of Bach on CD and listening regularly doesn't make me a fan of the Church Organ ???

Wrong again TF.......

I love Church Organ, and Wakeman uses is sublimely in Awaken ! - Also used to great effect by Par Lindh - who is possibly the best practitioner in prog music - The three Fates is amateurish by comparisson, I was expecting a LOT more but thats the typical ELP fan going OTT - ELP never gets beyond the ordinary - to scale the heights they needed a classic album without at least 3 turkeys on it......!!!!

Well I would guess you'd have to like a church organ to be able to appreciate it.  You aren't evidently a fan of church organs... so whats the point.

The three fates is all about the second fate and its mergence into the third fate actually.  If you can't appreciate BSS, what makes you think you could appreciate this remarkable song??

I favour a quick version, without to much ado, so it's over before I'm aware of it.

I'll have to go with works Volls. I & II. For some reason they are the ones I listen to the most  . I think at this point with all the crazy touring behind them they were able to sit down and think the music out with clearer heads. Also it is interesting to see what they could do individually. Father Christmas and Fanfare are two of my faves from ELP.

T'was BSS for a long time ... but in the last couple of years the first album has overtaken it ...
"Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.”

"No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present."
