Hey! ELP is one of the best! It was progressive rock that really rocked. Although the music and lyrics were a bit corny from time to time but it still doesn't nullify the fact that Tarkus and Karn Evil 9 are one of the greates prog songs ever recorded.

I think I ended up in the world of ELP when I heard Hoedown on a special radio show Progeyö (Prog Night in English). Next day I went to the local library and loaned ELP compilation and that's when my descent to progresive rock started.

ELP were wanky and great at the same time. Those Keith Emerson fast fingers were amazing, but is it art? I didn't care at the time. K9 is truly great but just hope the neighbours don't hear it

Of course one of the main appeals was using synths to make music, rather than some novelty sound or background pad.
