I'm glad you two loved this. It is insane, it is perfect. That's why they are my favorite band and always will be. thanks for not stopping it 5 or 6 times like some people do.
To die for, this concert memory. I was living in Hawaii at the time and Carl Palmer's stainless steel drum kit was collapsing stages ( ! ) so the promoters in Hawaii said forget it. So I did what any serious 18 year old fan of music would do: I flew 6000 miles each way to the East Coast so I could catch this incredible album performed live. Well worth it.
At the time they were probably the best musicians on the planet. I have the honour of seeing them several times over the years. A sad loss to the world of music when both Keith Emerson and Greg Lake passed. Carl Palmer is however still touring with his own band.
My favorite song, from my favorite group. I saw them perform this masterpiece TWICE IN 2 NIGHTS, in 1974. One of the concerts became their masterpiece multi-albums at Anaheim. Wow.
I had the pleasure of seeing them perform this live in Houston Texas.Keith Emerson was not only a master of the keyboards but a showman extrodinaire. R I P Keith .The late Greg Lake lead vocals ,bass,lead guitar. was underrated as a vocalist in my opinion.Karl Palmer ,still with us,Is one of the top progressive percussionist.
Be sure to check out the rest of Karn Evil 9. (2nd and 3rd impression.) It now continues with a piano solo. The three impressions urgently belong together for the story that is being told. What you've heard so far was the 1st impression, parts 1 and 2 (you had to turn the record over, that's why parts 1 and 2). Enjoy the rest of the trip.
@@hanierfamily Obvioudly it is up to you, but as an ElLP fan from the early days (I followed GregLake when he left King Crimson to form ELP) I heartily recommend starting with their eponymous first album, followed by TARKUS
This whole lp is worth a listen. My favourite track though is "Fanfare For The Common Man" from the "Works Vol I" LP from a few years later. The cover for this lp (Brain Salad Surgery) was created by R. H. Geiger (made mode famous by his design/set work on "Alien" the movie.
Emerson Lake and Palmer the standard of excellence in musicianship that all other bands were measured by in the 70s😮 3 Maestro musicians all technical virtuosos😮😮😮
A good place to start your ELP diver. I personally would recommend Trilogy, which I believe is full realization of their concept of fusing classical, rock, jazz into their music. Also, Pirates from the Works album is a great example of their talents. Good listening. Yes, Lake was bass and guitar (and vocals). It was almost seamless when Emerson picks up the baseline on keyboards.
Got to agree - I’ve had the original version embedded since the 70’s - too much bass and drums in the foreground; the Hammond sounds lost! It’s definitely different
Great reaction to ELP, and you're the only person who's ever caught the fact that Greg Lake switches from bass to guitar and Keith takes over on bass keyboard at that one point in the song!!! I saw ELP on this Brain Salad Surgery tour in 1974. Also, on their reunion tour I just happened to be at the right place at the right time, and after the show got to hang with Keith Emerson and Carl Palmer on the tour bus for awhile. Again, great reaction and appreciation for this!!!
@@filbertoaguirre7858I have always been a huge ELP and Yes fan, especially of Keith and Rick Wakeman (but all the musicians are masters). I tended to listen to Keith's playing more as ELP was more keyboard-centric. I told Keith that to which he replied "I should certainly hope so"!! (with a smile on his face).
Perfection. i also love the switch to piano in 2nd Impression and then the different tone of 3rd Impression. I caught them with the orchestra and then without in 1977. Awesome!
There's just too many words I wanna say to compliment this so you pretty much say it all like that ,an unbelievable human masterpiece! Even aliens are like dumbfounded!
Saw them live at the Montreal Forum in 1974. Also at the Olympic Stadium a few years later. Then in 1987 at Canada's Wonderland. Carl Palmer still tours with his Legacy band and I saw them at the Budweiser Center in 2018. Their music is exceptional. BSS is not my favourite of theirs. Try Trilogy or their debut album. Less manic. Less speed, more emotion. Good review. Glad to see prog make a comeback.
Good video dude😊 the little woman is really nice and genuine. She really seems like she truly gets into this music from my era as do you yourself. If you don't mind I would love to have her over to listen to records or CDs sometime. Look at the advantage she could return the next day and inform you about everything she's learned.😅😅😅
I was listening to ELP, because I liked King Krimson. They were the mixture of fusion and romantic pops, I suppose. I replaced them for more literary prog band, Genesis.
You're not the brightest WIC in the forest are you😅 a mixture of fusion and romantic pop? Who is that King Crimson or e l p? Are you insane or just borderline retarded? Either way pop shouldn't even come into the discussion😢 first off on a musicianship scale ELP are the Undisputed Kings😊 King Crimson or avant-garde Progressive Genesis like the other two were a great progressive rock band until pop-oriented Tutti Frutti Phil Collins took over. No contest Emerson Lake and Palmer where the greatest. The nice with Keith Emerson were the first progressive rock band. Followed by King Crimson starring Greg Lake were the second which if you include Atomic rooster with Carl Palmer should make them not only the first supergroup b u t the gods of progressive rock😮 then you throw in the dynamic musicianship of three technical virtuosos and it's easy to realize why those guys blow their contemporaries away. Especially Genesis who were absolutely great in the early 1970s allowed Phil Collins to take them on a journey that George Michael and his black twin Michael Jackson would have traveled😢😮😅😅😅
If have seen so many rewiews of ELP Karn evil 9. What I don't understand is why it take so many people 50 years to figure out how truly amazing it is. Also the comments took 1 minute. It was great. See you later. Goodbye.
Now - Do Impressions 2 & 3. Although I recommend the remastered live version of part 2 because you can see them at work I recommend the studio versions for those
Interesting remix. The translation from 5.1 to stereo is a bit regrettable, in that it's making some things louder than they were originally, and other things are vanishing somewhat so it's distorting your experience when compared to the stereo mix. Also, if you're wondering about any weird panning, I believe this was originally mixed for quad, which was a hot new thing in 1973. That's one reason 8-track tapes became trendy back then -- they could reproduce a quad mix. ELP really embraced the format, even mixing their live shows for quad, so the music would sometimes be circling around the hall (which you can hear on the "Welcome Back My Friends to the Show that Never Ends" live album.) The section in KE9 that starts with "Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends." is the start of side 2 of the vinyl album. The tambourine-synth passage that precedes the vocal fades out to end side 1 and fades in to start side 2. As I recall the first CD release of this album actually kept the fade out and fade in!
@@hanierfamily You would need to have a quad-compatible stereo system and speakers, much the same as today with surround. Quad is basically the same idea as 5.1, just without the center and subwoofer.
There IS a good quality remastered live version of part 2 from the California Jam 1974. It also includes a great drum solo on a custom made One-Of-A-Kind 2 and a half ton drum & percussion kit.

Same for me. I never get tired of listening to ELP.

ELP equals one word = TALENT!
Favorite band, heard this a million times - this 5.1 conversion is making a weird mix, but I guess you get the idea anyways. Thanks for doing it!

What were they like?
And what kind of alcohol do they drink?
@@filbertoaguirre7858They were both very gracious!!!

Decade of seventies poll by Playboy magazine had Keith Emerson #1 keyboards, Carl Palmer #1 drummer, Greg Lake #2 bassist only behind Paul McCartney
Dang, I had the 8-track when this came out. I was a hip 8th grader with my "Admiral Portable AM-FM 8-track Stereo Player".
The most astounding thing is that they used to play this live we’re just the three of them.
Keep searching for a live video of this. There are several out there and I saw one the other day where the sound was great.
Perfection. i also love the switch to piano in 2nd Impression and then the different tone of 3rd Impression. I caught them with the orchestra and then without in 1977. Awesome!

Listen to Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends by ELP. They are playing it live,. Its alost better I think..

If you guys are going down "Prog Road" give "Carrying no Cross" a 12 and a half minute masterpiece by UK a listen!
ELP was 3 beasts in progress !
Such an intricate piece. Just wonderful
Now - Do Impressions 2 & 3. Although I recommend the remastered live version of part 2 because you can see them at work I recommend the studio versions for those
Virtuosos all 3, but Mr. Emerson was a very accomplished composer. Also, "Synths" were only a few years old and not common yet in tunes.
