    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.

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.

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!

    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.).

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.

    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.

      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.

    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 ! : )

    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.

    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.

    Wow (as they say), this is the most amazing, impressive, incredible, astonishing, smashing, big-etc,etc-ELP cover i've heard (and seen) in my life- and Karn Evil 9 is-in my point of view- probably the greatest prog masterpiece ever written, so what a pleasure to see Miss Rachel Flowers and all the others in the band play it with such dedicated virtuosity and skill-and the guitar solo part by Rachel is to match!!! great job; wherever he is, Keith must so glad and proud of this.RIP Keith, and a big thanks to you all for what you do for Great Music.
    (I know, i must have written "great"at least 6 times and this makes one more-sorry about that- but it IS GREAT!!!)

      Rachel actually nails that guitar solo better than the original. On the studio ELP version, Greg Lake makes a tiny flub on the solo which made it through to the final version. Rachel fixed that!

  • @andrewbieger5004
    @andrewbieger5004 7 років тому +4

    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.

    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.
