Hope you enjoy it! Thank you as always to Misi, Dave, and Len, and we welcome bassist Alex Faggian to the fold!

I’m stunned, who would have thought that 50 years ago later, we would all come together and genuflect at ELP’s brilliance. Ms Flowers & your virtual band, I take my Fedora hat off to you and give you my sincerest thanks for such a wonderful performance.
The singer . . . the drummer . . . the synthesizer player. . . the bass player . . . and Rachel playing both: the guitar and the keyboards . . . all are GODS!!!
I'm 61 years old, love elp followed Rachel for some time all the musicians R amazing 👍✌️🤩🤩🤩
In loving memory of Greg Lake.
AIGOR 757 Great vocals from this singer, but Lake was fantastic on the vocals and bass. Greg sang the heart out of this song!
@@markusantonio4866
He sang the heart INTO this song!
Well done and thank you for sharing this with us.
Greg Lake was a true musical genius.
Karl Palmer is the only one alive out of this trio 😢
This cover does not suck.
Not only does it not suck, it's the best cover I have ever heard of any band. I've heard many mediocre covers of Zep, Yes, and others, but when it comes to ELP, those cover bands can't handle it. Thank God for these musicians and may all be blessed !
So let me guess - you are well practiced at understatement. Doesn't suck, indeed.
@@OrganGrinderEleven I know enough about being understated to just get by.
I’m struggling with the concept of someone actually doing a cover of a track as complex as this, much less one that’s any good.
Doesn't suck, but it's lacking the energy 3 dudes pulled off. Probably my only critique.
Rachel!!! As if the keyboards weren't enough! That guitar solo. You guys were all superb!!!!!!! RIP Keith and Greg xxxx beautiful really
Arguably one of the greatest note for note, spot-on covers I have ever heard for ANY genre. Listened to this song as a15 year old over and over and over, and now listen to this almost every day. I am 56 now. Thank you for this. I love Rush, Yes, and many others, but this to me is THE all-time
anthem of progressive rock.
Check out Band Geeks doing all of, Close to The Edge.. It's GREAT..❣👍🎶 But yeah.., Rachel is STUNNING.. Truly gifted..❤
Dood right
Rachel can do this with ANYTHING! Check out her jam with Dweezil Zappa.
Case closed.
Karn Evil 9 was so far ahead of its time and your cover does the most justice to the original that I've ever heard! Excellent musicianship and vocals all around!
Thanks from all of us!
just think!.....Greg Lake had to sing AND play these complex bass runs at the same time, live!
Just also think!...Keith was alone to play these masterpiece on keyboards !!! ;-)
Lake was and is one of rock/prog's most underrated bassists...
I know he obviously wasn't singing during that part, but his playing during the 2nd half of Fugue (the frantic half lol) is quite astonishing.
Lake was the epitome of cool. He was so smooth and his vocal delivery was effortless.
Greg Lake was insanely blessed... singing like an angel, playing the bass frantic as a possesed.
Rachel totally blows me away with her passion and talent. What an inspiration to all that want to be musicians. I did not know that she played guitar! Wow!
You ought to see her with Dweezle Zappa... It's jaw dropping.. (and she sings on that one too, while playing giitar..)... Frank would have been knocked out..👍🎶🎶🎶
@@richardgleichmann7671 Yes, this is amazing. Just thought of that.
Bassist just burning through this piece. He puts Greg Lake's mastery on full display. Cheers Alex
You don’t get in King Crimson for no reason!
True that..go Alex !
Still trying to learn this bass part since 1977.
Excuse me for a moment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I had to pick my jaw up off the floor,...WOW!!!
This is so awesome Rachel is a gift to all ELP fans they are all excellent musicians , im 66 years old i have goose bumps,!
James O'Connor she is an incredible talent. Amazing to play any of Keith's pieces, much less being blind. Truly a gift from God.
This is a contender for the greatest thing I've ever seen on RUclips. Deeply moving. Awe-inspiring talent on display here. To think, ELP are usually derided by the rock press....
Human brains have not yet evolved enough to comprehend the genius of ELP's music.
The anti prog critics can take a flying leap! :)
Absolutely!!!!
The fact that they STILL have not been inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame is just absolutely insane. I've renamed it the rock and roll hall of SHAME as in "SHAME ON THEM FOR KEEPING ELP OUT !!!!
"The Rock Press" as Douglas Adam's would say "would be the first against the wall when the Revolution comes". The first time I ever read a copy of "Rolling Stone" the dork spewed on about how "Dark Side of the Moon" was "cheesy" I threw the filthy rag in the trash and never touched that shitty rag again!
The Most Amazing Cover Ever!!!!!!
Wow! Keith Emerson is loving this where ever he is
So is Greg Lake, R.I.P.
That's for sure!!!
He was there.. In Rachel's hands
Jeanie, I have said this before and I'm going to say it again, "Keith Emerson lives through Rachel". Listening to this makes us realise Keith is still with us. So I have to congratulate Rachel for giving this to us and making Keith proud. I know he is looking down on her. And not to forget the amazing guitar solo. She NAILED IT. And also that you to the others who collaborates who made this possible. Keep this up and we need much more of this. Rachel, don't forget we also want Tarkus :-)
Keep this up and let ELP live on. Maybe we will see you in concert.
You are so correct sir. I first heard of Rachel just 26 hours ago...
Such a beautiful comment Ben! I just discovered rachel a few hours ago and am absolutely blown away by her talent. There HAS GOT TO BE a way for Carl Palmer to meet Rachel and she join him on tour! Wouldn't that just be so cool?
FLP
Man!! I'm blown away!! This is the first time I've watched this incredible talent! She masters all keyboards and the guitar as well!!! It's absolutely stunning!!
I play the piano and keyboards too, and I have to say that she can play much better than me, and my vision is just a little impaired... Phenomenal, astonishing, awesome, incredible talent!!!!
Ben Liebrand she did Tarkus proud also!
Excellent, everyone!!!! Thanks to all of you!
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen! A virtual band starring Rachel Flowers! Soooo awesome!!! I had to pick my jaw up from the ground again after seeing Rachel playing the guitar! You are pure awesomeness Rachel! Wowee!!!
Lets hear it for Alex Faggian on bass!
the guy IS damn good
Fakt je moc dobrý!
Alex is a bass god. His timing is impeccable.
Love him!
Makes it look effortless. WOW!!
The bass guitarist and the guy who plays the synthesizer are BEASTS!!!.
So the blind girl Rachel on keyboards and lead guitar is not a beast? C'mon now. :-)
I think all of them are! Vocals and all... But surely, Rachel's performance always receive special kudos!
Beasts is a positive feedback! Love the works here! Thank you 😊
@@RobertLindabury that's a given
Rachel is a girl and blind. She is Very good
Oh Hell yeah Rachel and friends!
unbelievable.Rachel,you had the best tutor in the world,in Keith,very sad when he passed.But,keep up the work,my love,Keith's watching over you from afar.God bless.
I was a huge ELP fan in the 70s during high school -- and still love to cruise RUclips watching their old concert tapes and videos, etc. I came here out of curiosity about what a "virtual band" is (Now I know!!!!) and who were these folks , trying to do one of the most difficult yet terrific pieces of music the trio ever wrote and recorded. I wasn't expecting this -- YOU GUYS NAILED IT! Close your eyes and (I never envisioned saying this) they ARE ELP! This took a lot of hard work and you all should be very proud. More thousands of people need to see this. And I agree with another poster here -- Carl palmer should have you guys do a concert with him! Love this!!! Love Rachel's work to the nth detail here!
We lost Keith and now Greg, but thanks to you guys their powerful music can live on.
Fantastic job!!!
I've seen this many many times and each time it still blows my mind...so much to listen to and discover. Brilliant. Musicianship is faultless and the icing on a magnificent cake is Lens' singing and understated performance. The ELP legacy is the best hands ever. RIP Kieth Emerson.
Huge Elp fanfor 40 years...fantastic work guys, just a freakin joy to watch really...
I've never heard a cover like this before!! Dead on!!!!👍👍👍
WELCOME BACK MY FRIENDS TO THE SHOW THAT NEVER ENDS...!! Rachel is fantastic... Great work Dave Becher...you are finally playing in a band..!! Props to Mihaly, Len and Alex...!!!
It`s difficult to find words to tell how much I love this collab. Not only that this is my all time favorite ELP tune, but also seeing some of my RUclips friends collaborating with for me one of the musical prodigies of the present time, Rachel Flowers, makes me so happy and proud at the same time. You guys did an incredible job, covering this masterpiece by ELP ... BRAVO and hats off!
Just totally unbelievable! RIP Keith and Greg. They would smile happily at this, What a tribute.
Would love to see Carl Palmer put in his thoughts on this.
Nailed it. Everyone. Absolutely incredible.
Another ELP collaboration we could not have done without Rachel. Brilliant, as always! Thanks again for joining this project Rachel and Jeanie. Now, on to the next part!
The most amazing thing i've heard ever. You guys have made an incredible job
In October of 1978 I was working for MCA Records and was at a party in Los Angeles where I was introduced to Keith Emerson by a lady I worked with. She knew I was a huge slobbering fan. Now I had worked with many bands and stars but was absolutely speechless once I shook his hand. Keith was very cool. He spent ten minutes talking to me in a very relaxed manner. Like he was talking to his neighbor or a good friend. This ten minute meeting doesn't make me an expert on Keith but my guess is he would have been quite impressed with this performance. It was astonishing. (Moments after I walked away a waitress spilled a tray of drinks on him -- and he was very gracious about it.).
He was a real fan of Rachel, you can find relevant videos on RUclips.
Karn evil has been some of my favorite pieces for decades ,I was a kid in the 60's so I was fortunate to spend my summers watching Zappa ,Mahavishnu orchestra ,ELP, YES ,Blue Whale ,Vanilla Fudge ,Return to Forever and many other fusion bands we just don't see anymore ,with exception of Dream Theater & Zappa plays Zappa.
MAGIC. RIP GREG your legacy is in safe hands!!.
This was so good it brought me to tears.
Me too. So freaking good!
oh yes. And I had a huge smile at the same time. :) x
And me. x
This is just beautiful. I can't believe how spot on this is. Even the singer sounds like Greg. Excellent job to everyone!
Thank You!
I was at the Emerson tribute show in L.A. .. hearing Rachel's playing live was so therapeutic for all of us. Thank you for your mastery Rachel! You are truly one of a kind.. the guitar solo? Are you kidding me? It was so flawless it blew my mind. Great work everyone!!
It's 2024, and we witness here infinitely more talent than the entire download top 100 combined. We live, sadly, in a period of musical devolution...
I love watching Rachel play and see the joy on her face. Then she even did Greg Lake's guitar part... holy cow! I wish Keith Emerson could have seen this video. Even if his skills were failing him, he could have taken joy in seeing his music being carried on by others.
Rachel even nailed the guitar solo!!
Sounds just like the genuine article. I can't say anything that anyone has said already, Keith lives through her and is smiling down at her. If you're going to cover something like this, I think all the parts should be there and from what I'm hearing, they are. God bless Rachel and the band for keeping this music alive. I've seen ELP 5 times in my lifetime featuring the major album tours. This is as close as it gets to the real suite, that includes Part 2 and everything they've covered. Attention to detail is key.
Holy shit she's a guitarist too?!! What the hell is beyond her grasp? Straight up godlike ability Keith Emerson would be quite proud
As always, Miss Flowers is fantastic. beautiful composition of the ELP, played by that group. Congratulations !
"Como sempre, a senhorita Flowers é fantástica. belíssima composição do ELP, tocada por esse grupo. Parabéns !"
As someone who has been trying to learn the bass part for this song for months now (and still haven't mastered it completely), I truly appreciate the skill and perfection you guys brought to this, one of my all-time favorite ELP songs. Rock on!
You guys absolutely killed it! I was expecting a random band cover, but as soon as i saw Rachel i knew it would have to be good and when everyone came in exactly on point, I was loosing it! Awesome job on the vocals especially, the whole thing couldn't have been better!
Makes a grown man 68 want to cry...sheer joy
Whenever Rachel plays ELP songs I can’t keep back the tears. Reminds me so much of Keith. I fell in love with ELP way back in the early 70’s when they did their first tour of the US. They were my favorite band to see in concert and I never missed them until I went into the USAF in 1974.
what a treat to have this. Many thanks to all for your efforts to bring this to us.
You all are fantastic as always !!! Jeanie is so talented and breaking new ground playing great Greg lake rifs !!! Even though my heart is still broken over the passing of Keith, Jeanie is the only one I've heard with the soul of playing Keiths keyboards, that is unsurpassed !!! I hope you all continue to produce these beautiful pieces of music !!! (I love all of it )
Wow! Could never believe anyone could pull this off. Excellent!
This is brilliant.
Well done to all of you.
wow.. took what 6 people to do what 3 did
disregard my last statement. just realized that Flowers was playing. My bad
So we have the original recordings. We have this amazing interpretation. And its free. That's what I call real privilege.
One aspect of a truly great piece of music is, you can listen to it, over and over again and continually discover new things that you never heard before. This is my favorite piece of music of all time. I listened to it hundreds, if not thousands of times since 1973. I heard you do several things in your performance that I've never actually heard on the original album before. Upon thinking about it, I thought "yeah, that is exactly the way Keith played it." Congrats on this great collaboration. I've been following you for years and I hope only the best for you. Keep carrying Keith's torch as you develop your own style!
My grandad went to royal college of music and he said you always know a good piece of music if you can listen to it and each time hear something different. So while he was teaching piano upstairs where we lived. Downstairs where we lived I was playing this on turntable. Before that, while still a small boy I watched Oscar Petersen on black and white TV in the 60s...so I had a good grounding of music everyone laughed at us ELP record buyers they thought we were odd. But here we are listening to these musicians of all ages who were inspired by the music that all brought us here... RIP Keith and Greg.. And my Grandad. Piano player and organist.
Absolutely an amazing effort put forth by very talented musicians.
Good music is timeless. It is as good today as it was when it was conceived, composed and performed!
My God. This is incredible.
"first installment" - I'm being patient, but it's really, really hard. Excellent work!
Rachel never ceases to amaze me such a magnificent talent.
I got chills and tears watching one of the greatest rock compositions performed flawlessly! Thanks to all involved especially Rachel - you rock!
Been an ELP fan for 50 years, saw them live and you knock it out of the park!
This was awesome!
I was able to close my eyes and imagine ELP on stage playing this. The vocals were awesome, as were the bass, synths, . . . everything!!!!!! Great job!!!!
Just found this video now. Wow, it's amazing!!!! A friend of mine back in high school in the early 70's introduced me to Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. I hope he got to watch this! Roll On!!!
Wow Jeanie this was so fantastic and one of the best Collab.I've heard. I post with Dave "the Drummer" a lot on his many videos (I'm and Old stickman ) and we Marvel about Rachel's playing often, her organ work on this is spot on ! I am still amazed how modern keyboards like her (Kord) sound just like the Big old Hammonds it's incredible. And her Guitar playing what a treat and in the fingerstyle of Jazz great "Stanley Jordan" just fantastic and she nailed the sole !!! I love when she plays with Dave and the guys it's great, maybe some day they can all get together and play a show or better yet "Tour" and play these Classic Prog songs ... so many of us would love this ! Thanks Jeanie for what you do and thank Rachel for us ! : )
I gotta say... I came here for Rachel Flowers and the keyboard cover, but I'm really appreciating the singer.
Thank You!
I cried, its beautiful.
Fantastic !
Can't get the big smile off my face when watching. Thank you!
Really Cool !
Brought tears to my eyes.......My Favorite Band Is and will always be ELP
Great Job......
I have always divided the world of music into two categories: THE BEATLES, and EVERYONE ELSE. At the very top of EVERYONE ELSE stand Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Together, those seven guys were my "foster parents," shepherding me through some of the toughest times of my life. Rachel makes me cry every time she plays ELP - shecmight be the only person who appreciates Emerson's genius compositions more than I do. I don't think that Keith believed himself to be half the genius the world believes him to have been. His departure was no less tragic than John Lennon's - both of which plus Greg's - just crushed my soul. Thank you, Rachel and friends for letting me know that I have not been suffering alone - that I am not crazy for loving this music so profoundly
Have to mention George's early and unfortunate departure. More tears whenever I rewatch any part of Concert for George.
I never get tired hearing on replay this master piece by these talented musicians
God Blessing You Rachel !
These guys are great! Getting together virally and making a difficult piece, is amazing.
Spectacular!
Rachel is totally amazing as usual.. I always wait for her new videos..Nice work everyone..
Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends!
I am so enamored with this talented group of folks - especially Rachel -- that I posted this on Facebook so others could see it.
Mixing these tracks - each musician recording to a click or recording to the drums and bass alone - then having to put it all together - what a process.
I have seen this several times, and still leaves me speechless!
Best thing I've seen on RUclips today. I love it.
wow!!!..You need to go through and record albums of their stuff, Go on tour....this is flawless stuff that overpowers with clarity, skills and mixing...This is so good...you had me smiling, fist pumping and in awe! plus then seeing Rachel just going to town on the guitar with intricate pitch perfect spectacular performance... all you need is smoke and wind around you!!! Thanks so much band!!! chris
Congratulations to all involved, what an outstanding piece of music expertly recreated for our enjoyment, BRAVO! I do have to give a special shout-out to Rachel, not only could I hear Keith but Greg as well, the guitar part was very special. As per usual, I was blown away. Thank you one and all, I have been thoroughly entertained.
Aweome. Been a huge ELP fan since high school in the early 70's. Now, to hear them again. Ahhh. I'll be watching for any and all or your works as they come out. Thanks for bringing my memories back to life.
Es increíble saber que, aunque muchos músicos ya no estén, como Keith y Greg, hay personas con una fuerza y talento increíbles, como Rachel y el resto de los músicos, que no dejarán que su música se olvide. Gracias Jeanie, Rachel y todos los músicos.
It's amazing to know that, although many musicians are no longer there, like Keith and Greg, there are people with incredible strength and talent, like Rachel and the rest of the musicians, who will not let their music be forgotten. Thanks Jeanie, Rachel and all the musicians.
Wonderful!! Thanks so much. A really amazing performance from your ensemble cast. Smoking guitar too! Well done all of you. I loved it!
Came here from another of Rachel's videos. I knew she was amazing on the keys, but that guitar solo was off the chart. I hope to hear the remainder of this collaboration. A fine gathering of musicians, to be sure.
My all-time favorite band . Bless there heart. And thanks to all you musicians keeping Elp alive . specifically my Hungarian brothers .
Rachel and Jeanie.... I feel I know both of you in person.. but no.... Just here on the net.... Maybe someday I'll get out to CA or you guys can make it into the midwest...(for what reason, I couldn't guess... this is fly over counry! LOL) But It would be so great to give you both a big ol Bear Hug! Soooo great to work with this great group again!
Or even better......dare I say it... perform together!
Len did a great job, and his appreciation and respect for the music comes through his performance of the piece.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked!
Sweet. Love this , and all the rest of the ELP catalog. You truly do it justice.
OMG! We lost so many talented musicians in 2016. There were so many programs both on radio and TV extolling the talents of David Bowie, George Michael, Prince, etc. There was hardly anything other than terse news reports breaking the tragic news of Keith Emerson ending his own life. He stood as tall as any who passed last year.
I've been aware of Rachel for a few years now and believe she is an unbelievable talent. This collaboration is just superb and a tribute to Keith, Greg and Carl.
As great as these people are with this cover, it really makes you appreciate the original when it takes 5 people to do what 3 did for the original. ELP was truly one of a kind.
Second one I see of these and it blew me away once again. Especially this month when we lost genius number 2. Kudos to you and Rachel as always kicks a**!!!
I'm impressed!
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! The bomb, love it to death! Thanks everyone, Rachel you are an angel from heaven.
日本人で失礼します、驚きましたほぼ完璧ですね、ほぼと言ったのはキースエマーソンさんに失礼だと思ったからです、いやぁカッコイイすげぇ、最高です！
Well done!! Congratulations!!
I am speechless!!! You are monstruosly good. Just by listening the piece and if you know the music can you understand the difficult, but only by looking at who is playing you really understand it. Tank you. You are fantastic. Giuliano
Emerson, Lake and Palmer were very popular in Brazil in the late 70s among all young progressive rock lovers, even in Natal, then a small town in the Northeast corner of Brazil. To hear this beautiful version played by such young musicians is an assurance this great band´s work will remain for many years to come!
Pleasure to watch and listen.
Superb job
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Incredible, thanks a lot for this!!!!!
What a great version. The singer sounds exactly like Greg Lake. Awesome job guys!
I thank you for your kind words... So proud to work with Rachel and these magnificent musicians!
Love the synth player - looks like he should be working in the local hardware store, but could wipe the floor with most younger keyboard players!
