There's a Hammond thread somewhere else in the forums. Well, Emerson's Hammond on 'America' smokes.

I don't know whether nostalgia has anything to do with it, but I really like listening to THE NICE. Some of their stuff sounds really raw but really authentically new and pioneering, if you know what I mean. I only got into them around 1972, and enjoyed everything I heard of theirs.

Five Bridges is excellent early Emerson & a precursor to that which followed with ELP.

I simply LOVE their version of America.

It's in my collection.

Beggar's Opera "Act One" is very NICE too if you like The Nice. But not nicer than Five Bridges.

The Nice were a massively influential British prog band...and that cannot be understated.Just about anything by them is worth checking out.

A few years back I got to meet the original guitarist in the band Davy O'List at a London prog show (Linda ''Three Fates'' was also there).I love his admission that he turned down the chance to join Roxy Music full time in the seventies because none of them were as talented as Keith Emerson!
