| I just bought this Greg Lake live CD with some solo tracks on it in addition to some old ELP tracks but haven't listened to it yet. I got it at a second hand shop out of the bargain bin for $5.00 CAN! I'm listening to The Division Bell right now and will throw it on right after and let you know what I think. |

Maybe we should include the bass intro to "The Barbarian"...seems I'm not the only one who thinks that's one of ELP's highlights. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/sollipsist/?chartstyle=kaonashi">

Bought an ELP DVD the other week, expecting a live show from the Albert Hall, 1992.. Bit dissapointed. All interviews. Interesting enough I guess, but I really should read whats written on the back of a DVD before I buy it.. Heard snippets from 'Black moon' on there. Sounds pretty good, better than I would have expected, but then I'm no ELP expert. As with any prolific prog band, its quite a learning curve ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

I **LOVE** the bass entrance into "The Barbarian"... wish I had a sound bite of it. Actually wish I had a few more sound bites anyway.. I have one of Take a Pebble.. but for some reason it won't play in here... ------------- THIS IS ELP

Didn't we used to have "Take a Pebble" here on the ELP page? My memory may be playing tricks with me. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/sollipsist/?chartstyle=kaonashi">

| Maybe someone can explain this to me since we`re on the ELP topic here. I`ve got a DVD by ELP called Welcome Back My Friends which contains a lot of live footage cumilating with a show at The Royal Albert Hall plus interviews. It looks like it coincided with the Black Moon release since it contains the video for Blood Money and some comments from greg Lake on what gave him the idea for the lyrics. Anyway at one point he appears wearing a track suit at what seems to be someone`s wedding reception in Italy. I guess if you`re Greg Lake you can attend a wedding in a track suit and get away with it without hearing from the in laws. Does anyone know what this was all about? There are a few weddings I`ve attended where I wished Icould wear a track suit. |

I don't know.. but how many times do I have to request that they put up a picture of ELP in the ELP page... and not a picture of ELPowell.... PLEASE???????? I'll give you a promo shot, if you don't have one. Why don't we get one from the 70s when a largest proportion of members here actually liked them.. How about this one...

Actually Greg was just visiting Juliet's House in Verona when he ran into a wedding party in the street. They recognized him so he got to kiss the bride. He wasn't invited to the wedding, so his track suit for a day of sight seeing and running around Verona was quite appropriate.
