Let's go back to the early 70's... What would happen if Emerson, Lake and Palmer never met each other??... Free your imagination and think what musicians could replace this famous signature... Maybe... MWB: Moraz, Wetton and Bruford?... Maybe... WEC: Wakeman, Enthwistle and Collins?... Maybe... ------------- ... E N E L B U N K E R... |

LOL: Levin, ... crap there are no musicians with a last name that begins with "O". Seriously, there are none. And Jon Lord. Squire, Howe, Wakeman. Oh, wait... Entwistle, Lord, Peart... ELP! Would be an interesting combination, probably mostly due to the huge differences between all of them. -------------

Neil Peart, Justin Hayward, and Rick Wakeman. That would be tight as hell, but of course it would never happen. Its always fun to dream though. Ronnie James Dio, John Lord, and Cozy Powell is another one that would be cool Dio used to play bass, but gave up on the second Elf album so he could focus on his singing ------------- Watch out where the huskies go,dont you eat that yellow snow |

It probably wouldn't be ELP without the right last names. Maybe: Brian Eno (vocals, keys), Kerry Livgren (guitar, keys, bass), and that overrated Neil Peart (drums)

David Oberle of Gryphon? Then you could have: Levin (bass) Oberle (drums, vocals) Lord (keyboards) So there! You could also have Mike Oldfield, Patrick O'Hearn or Ozzy Osbourne. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...'

If Emerson, Lake & Palmer had never met...hmmm....then the world wouldn't have had to suffer some of the most overblown, tuneless and egotistical rubbish ever heard. Nothing in their music can be called a) delicate, b) melodic, c) expressive. This band has always had both its supporters, and its detractors. Seldom do people sit on the fence where ELP are concerned! And rightly so! Still probably the worst 'big' prog band I have ever heard. And I've heard quite a bit of their 'stuff', even their so called 'masterpiece' Karn Evil 9, or whatever it is. Totally uninspired and uninteresting drivel. (As you can tell, I am not a fan!) But, each to their own, of course! |

Ermm.. a) delicate? - Take a Pebble,From The Beginning,The Endless Enigma (into),Fugue,Trilogy (opening bit) b) melodic?- Plenty of ELP's music has melody but they obviously were'nt The Carpenters c) expressive? Truly one of the most ill considered anti -ELP rants I've read on here. |
- ELP were one of the most expressive bands.That point is the silliest of the lot.

Trevor Rabin (yes) - Geoff Downes (yes) - Robert Berry (3) They would show all other supergroups how to sell their souls, and shamelessly break into the charts.
BTW, they would use a drum machine; because those human ones make the music sound too damned organic. |

WOW! Incidentally, as we are speaking of a sort of prog "power trio", has any of you heard the album recorded a few years ago by Judas Priest guitarist Glenn Tipton with Powell and John Entwistle? It's called "Edge of the World" and I've looked for it around, though to no avail. |
Wouldn't that have been great? Probably not really prog (more along hard rock lines), but fantastic nevertheless.... As a matter of fact, these musicians played together (even if not ALL together) - Lord and Powell in Whitesnake (and I even saw them live at Donington in '83), Dio and Powell in Rainbow.Posted By: Abstrakt
