ELP - From the beginning [1972]

Love that tune. One of these guys, I think it was Keith Emerson, killed himself this year. RIP. Makes me want to go play my vinyl Brain Salad Surgery album. Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends. Remember hearing that tune live I'm comcert at the Philadelphia Spectrum probably in 1978 or so.
 
Take a Pebble, this stuff was Jazzy way beyond it's time

Yes, KE did end his own life this year partly because he felt he was cheating his fans as he could no longer play like this. I saw the Emerson Lake Tour a few years ago and he talked about the issues he was facing. But he could still play classical tunes backwards from the other side of the keyboard and more. RIP
