 Topic: ELP prog?
Posted: March 15 2005 at 03:14 |
Since everyone is making ELP threads I thought I'd join in, is ELP really prog? or do they just have prog moments? I don't think that question matters to me, because either way their attempts are poor ones

Oh dear. Why perpetuate this ELP thing? I think your just baiting karn.. Looking for a fight??
Yes, ELP are a prog rock band. They are not my favourite band, but they have had some great moments. You are not obliged to like them. You dont have to listen to them or exchange views with those that do.

Good job that Three fates is fast asleep in her old Sweatshirt that Greg lake left at her flat.
That advert on telly (the budweiser one) - always reminds me that my wife likes to lounge around in my Old Sweatshirts........
ELP are definately Prog Rock!
This thread is the red-rag to a bull so to speak - KE9 is sure to get on his soap box.

Mr KE9 - Linda is a big-girl - she has used far more personal insults on this site than most - Thus if she gives it out, she must expect it back - My post is only repeating facts that she has posted on here herself - She has made her bed (so to speak).........

I showed some of these messages to the Irish boyfriend last night... He was surprised that all of you are adults. He said, "Why do you bother with those f**king idiots"... actually he said "iggots"... but I'm getting better at understanding him now...
I'm still amazed at how jealous all of you are of Greg tho... thats just priceless!!

You know the really sad thing about bands from the good old days that are still on the go???

Actually I saw Yes last year and thought it was a great show. I saw Keith Emerson doing Tarkus a lot last year.. and thought it was great, but would be a hundred times better with Greg and Carl. I saw some of the KC boys in the 21st Century Schizoid Band... and I thought they did great. I saw Caravan and that was an excellent show. Nektar would of been excellent if they could of turned the sound down half way... otherwise it was painful..
So just because they were great in the 70s, don't mean they can't still put on a great show...

Sorry Linda
But i love ELP as they were.I saw ELPowell & Power of 3 to find they were going down the same road...
Yeah i would really hope they would re-form,who would'nt as a fan but please prey they don't write embarresing material as these other have done...I'm very scared of the prospect actually.

Very true when it comes to playing their old material but it's the new stuff that's killing them
Saying that everyone knows Yes took a turn for the worse with '90125','Big generator' etc...tragic stuff if you ask me but i borrowed the 'Key to ascenssion' sets a while back & quite liked that studio stuff on there...but not a patch on the old gear.
