Greg's singing is about the only rock voice I can sing along to in my limited range. I have to edge into falsetto to sing along with almost everyone else, I guess because most of them are tenors, and I am a baritone. Except on this song! He can still hit much higher notes than me here.
A band I was unfamiliar with, until this album! They came to town in 1974, Keith Emerson and his Piano rose up off the stage and rotated forward, dipping and spinning Emerson in circular fashion...just unbelievable to see and describe! A really awesome show...around 50 years ago. You’re very correct, we were and still are, spoiled due to the volume of bands. ELP-Great!
@@jimwilhelm943 I couldn’t tell you, frankly, because I don’t know which is Hall and which is Oates! If you’re asking about my voice, I think they are both higher than me.
We were Spoiled with great music. It just seems that those bands from the 70's were willing to take chances, experiment, and their music just got better and better. But it does seem that this generation is starting to discover our old songs and loving them like did.
Those are good ones to begin with, to prepare you for the REAL ELP, like Tarkus, Karn Evil, the first self titled album, Pictures at an Exhibition, Endless Enigma, Trilogy. Mind you, provoking stuff, not as easy listening as this one, this was minor league ELP, but good nonetheless.
I've heard this piece thousand times. The most interesting thing for me was your reaction to It. I am so happy that there are people who still appreciate really good music.
...now you understand what our music was about...the variety...the originality...the progression and off beats...beautiful stuff...no faux vocal electronic enhancements...
I love seeing you kids have the same reactions we had almost 50 years ago as teenagers when we first heard this music. Hope you were as spellbound and awakened as we were. Cheers!
Keith Emerson was one of the greatest keyboard artists in rock music who ever performed. Listen to the three fates from the Dove Album, with Emerson playing a pipe organ.
I bought the Trilogy album when it first came out and I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to see this great music passed on to a new generation!! It’s fantastic and you two are a delight to watch!! It’s like I am getting a new perspective on a familiar song and I get to be reintroduced to ELP!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
“Just Take a Pebble” was my favorite ELP song back in the early 70’s as a young lad. I would go to sleep many nights listening to it on my reel to reel. A must listen with headphones.
In the 60’s and early to mid 70’s, we just turned on the radio and the magic was right there. Then the corporate suits took over and by 1980, most the AOR (Album Oriented Rock) stations were gone, replaced by the “Formula Rock” Top 40 stations. The days ELP, Yes, Pink Floyd, Uriah Heep, Rush, etc and their 10-15 minute songs being played on the radio were gone; replaced by the hits from REO Speedwagon, Journey, Foreigner, Cheap Trick, etc. Not that those are bad bands with bad songs but they lacked the pure magic of songs like this one.
Heard Lucky Man by ELP first time in '71, downtown Des Moines, Jimmy C's pool hall, club and pick up joint. The Dove album. YES, fortunately, Generator and 90125 never took off. I disliked those. YES Tormato, Topographical Oceans, both grand and underrated music by YES.
I remember the pirate stations. They didn't have a license to broadcast and were constantly on the move. They'd play music you wouldn't hear anywhere else. I remember waking up one morning to go to school and being late to class because one of the pirate stations played the entire Eat A Peach album by the Allman Brothers and I just had to hear it all.
I got back from Vietnam in April of 1972. The high end, 4 channel system I bought while overseas, arrived shortly after I did. Lying on a bean bag chair, with my eyes closed, and hearing music like this flowing through my head, is probably the happiest I have ever been in my life.
Thanks for the shout out, guys! So glad you're checking out ELP. This song is so wonderful. I'm glad you both liked it! The opening harmonics are very reminiscent of the beginning of the song Roundabout from Yes which came out just one year prior. I wonder if that was Greg Lake tipping his hat? Maybe somebody here knows. In the meantime, some obligatory follow-up tracks: Lucky Man, the full Karn Evil 9 suite, Hoedown (adaptation of an Aaron Copeland piece), Fanfare for the Common Man (also by Copeland). There are many others, but this is a good start. Enjoy!
@@kevintillman7862 Nice to see you on another platform besides Facebook, my friend! I'm enjoying this reaction channel quite a bit - very genuine. It's always gratifying to see the next generation picking up the music we love. Hope all is well. :-)
@@NicknLex I have been following the career of Miyavi from Japan. This guy could give Stevie Ray Vaughan a run for his money. He taught himself to play and started out on bass. The "band" is just him and the drummer who has been with him for long time. They call him the Samurai guitarist, and he plays a number of genres, but mostly rock. He is an excellent actor, too. Maybe you will review him. Your insights are good, because you play music. Thanks for your videos; they are pleasant and enjoyable. "What's My Name" -- NYC ua-cam.com/video/QYXL0OA2K9M/v-deo.html
Sounds even better now than when I first heard it in high school in 1972! Mellow is the word I always used to describe the feeling this song evoked. Love your reactions--you guys really know quality music, and we certainly had an abundance of it in the 70's. We truly did not realize how lucky we were back then to have music like this readily played!
You should watch Greg Lake sing this live, his last concert before his death. Timeless. Best to listen on a warm summer day , driving with the windows down, stereo blasting with a nice bass.
His live performance of Lucky Man was awesome. He was chewing gum while singing, but you’d never know it just by listening. And he wrote the song when he was only 12 years old! What a talent.
Try Listening to C'est La Vie by ELP (Emerson Lake & Palmer) It was so very rewarding to see you discover the absolute mastery of ELP. I miss Keith Emerson, and Greg Lake may they rest in peace. Anything they produced will open your eyes and senses. Thank You.
I remember being in high school when this came out. I would put it on the stereo, turn out the lights and listen to it with headphones while I lay on the floor. Heaven.
Emerson, Lake, & Palmer: Still You Turn Me On. You guys will love this one too. Greg Lake has such an easy voice to listen to. Play the live version, and watch Greg as he so effortlessly projects his voice. I clicked on your about link, and your families history with music is so inspiring.
ELP was my favorite band when I was in college. 1977 I saw them in concert 5 times. It was the year I graduated from college and I just happened to be in the cities where they were touring. They started the tour with a full symphony orchestra, but it got too expensive so by the end of the summer it was just the 3 of them. My favorite was Keith Emerson. I've always been a sucker for keyboards and Keith was classically trained, which comes through in a lot of their music. Karl Palmer was not a drummer, he was a percussionist. Truly amazing. I wasn't that keen on Greg Lake back in the day, and always thought him the weak link, but have changed my mind and come to appreciate him more as I grow older. It's so great to see another generation discover their music and help to keep it alive. Loved your reaction, and yes, you definitely need to check out more of their music..
Hi Guys! So glad you like the song. Greg Lake was originally from King Crimson. Greg Lake played Acoustic, Bass and electric on this song. Must view, ELP Cam Jam 74 live with Greg doing the great great song, Still you turn me on. Also, ELP live doing the promenade and Sage live. Mind blowing guitar work on Sage. Thanks for sharing. Blessings from Michigan.
Wow, this song takes me back. I was a freshman in college with no money to speak of. But it did not cost much for a group of friends to hang out on a friday night with a bottle of Boones Farm and listen to some ELP. Good times.
I started with Boones farm and Strawberry fields, and felt very sophisticated when we started drinking Mateus in the brown bottle. And chianti in the basket bottle. Good Times!
As soon as Greg finished with In the Wake of Poseidon and left to form ELP I followed him and I never bought another King Crimson album though I did lidten to them from time to time. Greg's voice was what drew me to KC ... and on then to ELP. Never regretted that decision for a single moment. That was when I was 17 in @ 1970 and 51 yra later they are still my #1. R.I.P. Keith & Greg
Keith's solo was a one time thing. They went crazy over it but Keith wanted another stab at it. They had limited tracks and they only had one track and none to do experimenting with. Keith always regretted this. Of course to me it sounded perfect.
I saw them in concert back in the 1970's somewhere. They were amazing, and I just got goosebumps hearing them again. It's nice to young people appreciate real R&R.
It just pleases me so much to see younger generations finally turning to our music and discovering its wonder. Imagine being utterly surrounded and saturated with it for DECADES. It was a different world. We had our problems but we lived in a most magnificent time. Continue to enjoy. MUST listen to ELP, "Still you turn me on".
I’m 61 and I have had the pleasure of being exposed to the greatest Rock music ever written. Watching you two hearing these masterpieces for the first time brings back so many wonderful memories. You need to listen to Queen II from start to finish, but especially “March of the Black Queen”.
Doesn’t great music just lift you up? So glad to see such great choices being made. This was my youth.... what a time. You two are a great couple. So chill and good together. A pleasure to watch.
This is what I've used for several years ❤as my alarm clock on my phone... soft beginning notes, then kicks in with beautiful music and lyrics... a great song to wake up to!! ❤❤❤
Such amazing old classics.. Greig Lake that voice. So much talent before it's time. I will dedicate our fav. song to you both. Our 40th will be in July. I see the relationship you two have. you will make it to 40 yrs " You still turn me on/ Lucky man....... Blessings cheers
They are a very nice couple for sure and their shared love of music will see them through for many years to come. Lucky they are but so are we, sharing this journey...
@ Lois R. : This is one of the sweetest comments we’ve received. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your kindness; you’ve brought tears to my eyes! I can only hope that we’ll share every moment together for as long as this Earth will have us. We will DEFINITELY be listening to that song and will celebrate you and your 40th anniversary - congratulations! Thanks again for your support and well wishes, Lex. @Vic Provost: Thank you so much for your kind words and your ongoing support! It’s so touching to know that you’re all enjoying this journey as much as we are sharing it with everyone! WE ARE SO BLESSED TO HAVE PEOPLE LIKE BOTH OF YOU ON OUR CHANNEL! :) Thank you infinitely and sending love, Lex.
@@NicknLex You have no idea how good you make this old hippie feel, making so much of the music of my life new again, you have such honest and sincere reactions and having a musical background really helps with the respect you command from your subscribers. Finding something genuine in this day and age is rare, you guys are the real deal! Do 'Love to Love' either studio (Lights Out album) or live (Strangers in the Night Live) from UFO, it fits you to a tee, Vic. :-)
Thanks again for your kind words and support; the amount of joy this channel has brought us is indescribable. People like you make it even brighter around here! We'll keep those in mind and be well, Lex. :)
Dude. Your face was flush while listening to this. I can relate to what a wonderful tune it is. This is my favorite from ELP. I still have the vinyl LP.
Yes, weren't we so lucky to be born in the 50's. I bought this album when it was released and still play it. The three guys were concert standard musicians. Greg Lake plays ALL the guitars and Carl Palmer is on percussion. The story goes that Keith wasn't in the studio when they were recording this so it was just Greg and Carl. Keith comes in and Greg says, the end needs some keyboards and Keith just come up with what you hear. Just simply stunning music and musicianship. Stay safe and Keep on Rocking.
Yes whatever you do don't go down the Yes rabbit hole 😉 jk it will be another great journey I grew up on Yes, Rush, ELP Jethro Tull, I was more of the Rush age group but my older sister had Yessongs one of the greatest live albums
One of the best albums ever Pictures at an Exhibition. Claasical music played by ELP. Oh the joy you will have going down this rabbit hole with this amazing trio. Carl Palmer was one of the most incredible percussionists in the world.
When this song and album came out, I had a close friend that died, and listened to this on my way to his funeral. The memories come flooding back. Great song!
Okay, l just had to tell you guys that when a was a teenager and this song would play at the party, most of us would whistle to the end part of this song, if you can imagine that 🤟😜
I was 17 when I saw ELP at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino Calif. 1978 . They just came out in plain white T-shirts and went to WORK ! Blew us all away w/cannons firing and this huge drum set spinning and the keyboards getting tossed around (w/hydrolics) ! They Opened w/the Loudest Sounding ...."Welcome Back my Freinds to the Show that Never ends..so Glad you could attend ..Come inside Come Inside " !! ...So Much FUN, man !!
Agreed! Though if you have a chance, checkout the band Porcupine Tree, maybe the song Anesthetize. Band leader Steven Wilson is known for creating amazing things and was inspired by all the 70s greats! :)
Your reactions are as precious as this music was to us back when it first drenched our ears, hearts and souls!!! God bless your hearts as you take us and go back with us to our youth.
In high school in the 70's my boyfriends parents owned the concert venue in town- i got to see every act! Yes, the Moody Blues and ELP were my absolute favorites. Seeing your reaction to this gave a baby boomer a lump in her throat! You must listen to And You and I by Yes- it is close to a religious experience. love to you!
I literally wore out ELP's Works...Volume One. A few faves if you haven't listened yet are C'est La Ville, and Fanfare for the Common Man, and of course THIS SONG. Glad you are enjoying! It is fun watching someone fall in love with music you love.
Howdy from Texas.............I’m 61 and this old song brings good old memories. If I ever get my time machine working again, I’m going right back to the ‘70’s !!!
What a wonderful rabbit hole to go down!!! So many wonderful songs. Not to mention the great Greg Lake CHRISTMAS SONG I Believe in Father Christmas amazing!!!!!
I saw them in the early 70’s and they were one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen on stage. Keith Emerson was the best keyboard player of his generation. Listen to Tarkus,Pictures at an Exhibition,and Brain Salad Surgery. Keith Emerson didn’t invent the Moog Synthisizer but he did more for synth music than anyone else. Rest In Peace Keith and Greg.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’ve been listening to this song for years and still love it! Your first reaction to it mirrors my own. I was instantly transported to a fantasy world.
When we were teens, one of our friends had an older brother who had several reel to reel tape decks and a state of the art stereo system. He also had the entire basement lined with shelves from floor to ceiling with albums he had recorded in super high quality. At the time it was the best you could get in audio, and he would let us go down there and use it all from time to time. You can't even imagine listening to this music through Crown amps and huge Kilpsch monitors. It would go all the way through you body to your soul.and there were still thousand of records like this to explore for us. New stuff came out literally every week. It was a full time job just to give all the great music of the time a fair listen. 60's through the early 80's were a magical time.
You are absolutely correct late 60s and 70s is a treasure trove of beautiful music, was lucky enough to be born in 71 and experienced a lot of this music growing up and my father also had a large record collection which included ELP to Parliament Funkadelic I love the 70s music
Yeah, I'm still listening an hour and a half later. OMG, these are some of the most memorable songs of my life - Close to the Edge, Supper's Ready. Props to your listeners who are making these suggestions. Again, keep up the good work!
I was a teenager when this song came out. Another good one is “Telephone Line”. I played that a lot when my wife passed.😩 Her wings were ready but my heart wasn’t.
I hear ya! My first wife passed away over 13 years ago and it's still hard to get over it and I have remarried since but it's something that you never quite recover from. God's blessings on your life journey.
I grew up on this kind of music. Our house was always filled with it. In fact, I would say that the best music ever made came out between 1965 - 1975. If you haven't treated yourself to Janis Joplin you are doing yourself a great disservice. Start with Piece of My Heart and go on from there. You will be amazed.
I was born in '54. A lot of what you're listening to (so far) is the music that was the soundtrack for my "coming of age". Great music. And there was a ton of good music on tap back then. My son is in his 40s and has no idea that I ELP was a part of my past. There was just sooooooooo much good music from that time in my life --- more than we late boomers could ever have had time to share with our kids -- especially because they were preoccupied with the music of their own time -- mostly rap and hip hop. I love the journey you're making, love making it with you. Also love your spoken commentaries because you're both so smart, sensitive and candid. Thanks for showing up!
Stumbled across this video review of ELP. I was a Sophomore in high school back in '72. Was a big fan back then. I'm glad that a new generation could appreciate a listen.
Once rap showed up it absolutely started the decline in music to what crap we hear now. This song I've listened to thousands of times. Still sounds fresh.
There’s a ton of great hip hop from the 1980s to today. The real problem with music since the 1980s is the record companies stopped allowing artists to experiment and take risks. Nowadays the great musicians and artists aren’t the big names, they’re on smaller labels and have niche audiences. You have to look for them but they’re there. It’s frustrating that this elitist attitude is pushed so hard in old rock comment sections. I love 60s and 70s music more than just about anyone but I refuse to close myself off to new musical developments
It wasn't rap/hip-hop that started the decline it was what came after, namely the talentless canned music that still pervades the industry. Talent is not the barometer now in the industry it's only about how mush money. Same with the movie industry
Rap is blamed unfairly for a lot. So is disco. And punk. I also think nowadays one has to make a more clear distinction between radio pop that is produced for the charts and created by executives, which ranges from bland to awful. And more indie/underground music which has plenty of great new stuff to discover, but is hardly brought to the attention of the average top 20-listener. Also, for many music does not have the same meaning and relevance it might have had in the 1960s and 70s. It's more something for quick consumption until the next hit comes along. And then honestly, 1970s prog wasn't exactly mainstream either, was it? For any act like ELP you had a bubblegum pop group, too. YES hardly registered in the charts during their 'classic years', and bands like Rush for a long time were playing to a niche audience.
First live concert I ever saw was ELP in 1974. Amazing, innovative band that pioneered the incorporation of synthetic sound generation into rock music. To see their songs performed on stage with a massive array of switches, plugs and knobs connected to conventional looking keyboards was an amazing experience. If you haven't done a reaction video to 'Still You Turn Me On' - you should. Thanks for providing a platform to introduce younger ears to so much amazing music created well before their time.
You guys really do an old man's heart good; I love first time listeners. Watching your reactions to this music I grew up with in the late '60's and early '70's is bittersweet: I'm extremely happy watching your reactions and seeing the joy I felt when I played my records---especially THIS one---so many times you could SEE through them. But I am sorry your current contemporary music scene is so devoid of this level of musicianship. It's not that I don't think there's talent out there today, it's just that a.) There's no live music scene (especially NOW) b.) Music is so fragmented all over the place, which leads to c.) You have no RADIO scene to introduce new sounds to the world like we had (AM radio)---JUST sounds. No damn videos. Videos are too distracting, unless they are live performances. You are right, correct here, touting 🎧 HEADPHONES 🎧 as THE way to experience these tunes the first time. You will make up videos in your mind to go with these sounds. Again, I'm an old man, 63, no kids of my own, and it makes me happy that this music will live on in the ears of younger people and not die with me along with my old records which will be shoved in the trash by whoever ransacks my apartment when I go. Stand by for a LOT of suggestions, y'all. You asked for it, lol!
I'm 71. You never grow out of it Nick. You grow into it. As you've said, there was that much great music produced in the 60s and 70s, it was hard to listen to it all. The radio mostly played crap, albums were expensive to buy (at least for this working class kid) and of course there was no internet. As it happened, I had this album and I saw them live in '73, but there's still a whole lot from the period that I haven't got into, yet. Your dad will have been the same. He would have been aware of ELP, but maybe hadn't explored them too deeply.
YES!!! It's been at least 2 decades maybe since I heard this last. I'm a 70s guy from Texas, and this song in particular turned me on to progressive rock way back then. It was truly amazing in that time period.....almost novel. And guess what? It STILL is today 50 yrs later.
I love seeing y’all younger folks expressions on these wonderful songs.. I have seen them in concert.I was a hippie in the 70svand these bands were an experience .. glad I lived in these days and great music never dies!
I was born in '64, and I had a mother and father who loved music, all music so I heard everything from the Abba to Yes and everything in between. For my ninth Christmas I got one of those briefcase phonographs, where the top were the speakers that slip off the base and were themselves separate with 10 ft. of wire for each one. Oh and Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, because my mother had asked my best friends older brother what he had played for me, because I was constantly talking about it, and I was hooked! Most of my friends thought I was weird because I was listening to Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, James Brown, Chicago Transit Authority and so on before I was 12! Watching your reactions today has bought back so many memories of sitting in the dark of my bedroom with my headphones listening to all those great albums. You go Alice and Alice into that rabbit hole deeper and deeper and enjoy yourselves along the way!!!
Great song, classic song...but, I would have to say that, by and large, this is not the usual style for ELP. They are much "bigger" in sound, usually. Big keyboards, drums and multi-part epics. Great band, don't get me wrong but, in the main, the are a Keyboard-driven band and it is extravagant, progressive style that they usually throw down. All good tho!
Greg Lake provided the hit songs for them... Emerson is no slouch and his energy is overbearing without the soft touch of Lake to calm things down with a romantic ballad.
Funny, but growing up in the 60s and 70s, we knew the music was good. However, it took the crappy music of today for us old-timers to really appreciate just how great it was, as you are doing right now.
Saw them three times Emerson Lake and Palmer in Frankfurt Paris and Emerson Lake and Powel at the fox theatre in Atlanta Great experience Glad yoy are introducing this on your show
Oh! bless you both! I'd give anything to be able to experience this music for the first time again. I'm so lucky to have lived this music for 66 years but....the thrill of the first time listening! There's nothing quite like it. I'm a member of the most fortunate generation; the ones who saw these bands live, who bought their albums as they came out; whose music really has been the soundtrack.of our lives. I love your videos , it's so joyful to watch you listen to the songs for the first time; Its kinda like watching kids open Christmas gifts and I KNOW how good the gift is gonna be! Xx
Greg Lake was one of the most underrated singers in rock history!
YES ,Greg was a FANTASTIC Guitarist and An AWESOME Singer !! Really SEXY too !! I'm an old HIPPIE LADY ,I Appreciate ELP and their music !! 💜🎶☮️
Greg was right up there with great singers like Justin Hayward, of the Moody Blues.
I suppose he would be underrated by people who never listened. To rate somebody you best show up to the audition.
My favorite, his voice is just so pure. The three are and sadly were epic musicians.
Throughout his career - in so many great bands. I began my appreciation in '69 seeing King Crimson live. Always been a huge fan....
Greg had perfect tone.
He never missed or fail a note.
Neither as a singer or as a player.
What a great musician he was!
Greg's voice was amazing, the pitch bends in his voice in this tune completely sets up the instrumental at the end.
Perfect
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Greg Lake on bass, guitars and angelic vocals. RIP ✌
Huge tune
Please review Greg Lake’s live performance of “Still, You Turn Me on,” from 1984. Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/yoxHGxQw9ws/v-deo.html

You are beginning to understand why we old S.O.B.s think most modern music sucks in comparison with what we grew up with.
😂😂 totally agree
We were Spoiled with great music. It just seems that those bands from the 70's were willing to take chances, experiment, and their music just got better and better. But it does seem that this generation is starting to discover our old songs and loving them like did.
Masterpiece
I taught guitar for over 27 years and almost every student wanted to learn the stuff I grew up on, not the stuff that was popular then.
Whether it was the 60s or 70s.Yes, we were definitely spoiled, we didn't know it at the time though. The great music just kept on coming.
These guys were virtuosos..no autotune here..just perfect pure ralent
Exactly
Lucky Man, Fanfare For The common Man, Still You Turn Me On, Peter Gunn and Jerusalem are some good ones.
Agree, agree, agree, agree, and agree. Ill add Toccata and Tarkus
Jerusalem for sure!
Tarkus and Karn Evil 9 are amazing also
Those are good ones to begin with, to prepare you for the REAL ELP, like Tarkus, Karn Evil, the first self titled album, Pictures at an Exhibition, Endless Enigma, Trilogy. Mind you, provoking stuff, not as easy listening as this one, this was minor league ELP, but good nonetheless.
Oh God! You all forgot Epitaph.
I've heard this piece thousand times. The most interesting thing for me was your reaction to It. I am so happy that there are people who still appreciate really good music.
This is one of my top 5 favorite songs. Greg's vocals are pristine. Everything is perfect.
I agree. Perfect in every way.
...now you understand what our music was about...the variety...the originality...the progression and off beats...beautiful stuff...no faux vocal electronic enhancements...
Jay Graydon said- "Before Pro Tools, there were Pros"!!
ok boomer
I love seeing you kids have the same reactions we had almost 50 years ago as teenagers when we first heard this music. Hope you were as spellbound and awakened as we were. Cheers!
You mentioned King Crimson. Greg Lake, who sang w ELP was Crimson’s original singer. What a great voice.
Keith Emerson was one of the greatest keyboard artists in rock music who ever performed. Listen to the three fates from the Dove Album, with Emerson playing a pipe organ.
Tarkus side one especially just blew me away!
James Zealy - "One of the greatest keyboard artists"? Sorry, he's the best!
I bought the Trilogy album when it first came out and I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to see this great music passed on to a new generation!! It’s fantastic and you two are a delight to watch!! It’s like I am getting a new perspective on a familiar song and I get to be reintroduced to ELP!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Ditto.
I actually have three copies in my collection vinyl and CD.
Definitely my favourite prog album.
“Just Take a Pebble” was my favorite ELP song back in the early 70’s as a young lad. I would go to sleep many nights listening to it on my reel to reel. A must listen with headphones.
It's really hard to say what is #1 IMHO but if I had to choose this might be the first to come to mind
I may be late to the party but "Take A Pebble" is one of my favorites and I 2nd it.
Ripples by genesis!
In the 60’s and early to mid 70’s, we just turned on the radio and the magic was right there. Then the corporate suits took over and by 1980, most the AOR (Album Oriented Rock) stations were gone, replaced by the “Formula Rock” Top 40 stations. The days ELP, Yes, Pink Floyd, Uriah Heep, Rush, etc and their 10-15 minute songs being played on the radio were gone; replaced by the hits from REO Speedwagon, Journey, Foreigner, Cheap Trick, etc. Not that those are bad bands with bad songs but they lacked the pure magic of songs like this one.
yeah , you can say that again , To the Magic !
Agree well said!
Heard Lucky Man by ELP first time in '71, downtown Des Moines, Jimmy C's pool hall, club and pick up joint. The Dove album. YES, fortunately, Generator and 90125 never took off. I disliked those. YES Tormato, Topographical Oceans, both grand and underrated music by YES.
I remember the pirate stations. They didn't have a license to broadcast and were constantly on the move. They'd play music you wouldn't hear anywhere else. I remember waking up one morning to go to school and being late to class because one of the pirate stations played the entire Eat A Peach album by the Allman Brothers and I just had to hear it all.
When REO first started up they rocked.
I got back from Vietnam in April of 1972. The high end, 4 channel system I bought while overseas, arrived shortly after I did. Lying on a bean bag chair, with my eyes closed, and hearing music like this flowing through my head, is probably the happiest I have ever been in my life.
Glad you survived. Thanks for your service . A fellow vet
I was blessed to grow up during the 70's. Some of the best music ever! Nothing touches it today.
The skill and art that went into that song is off the scale and totally incredible.
Got a $10 cheque from my Grandma for my 16th birthday in '72 and ran right out and bought this album. It had just come out that week.....for $5.99!
Thanks for the shout out, guys! So glad you're checking out ELP. This song is so wonderful. I'm glad you both liked it! The opening harmonics are very reminiscent of the beginning of the song Roundabout from Yes which came out just one year prior. I wonder if that was Greg Lake tipping his hat? Maybe somebody here knows. In the meantime, some obligatory follow-up tracks: Lucky Man, the full Karn Evil 9 suite, Hoedown (adaptation of an Aaron Copeland piece), Fanfare for the Common Man (also by Copeland). There are many others, but this is a good start. Enjoy!
Thank YOU for your constant support and suggestions! We’re happy to have you and hope you keep enjoying the channel. :) - Lex
Well said Michael . I take for granted so much of the great music we grew up with. This one still amazes at 50 years old.
@@kevintillman7862 Nice to see you on another platform besides Facebook, my friend! I'm enjoying this reaction channel quite a bit - very genuine. It's always gratifying to see the next generation picking up the music we love. Hope all is well. :-)
@@NicknLex I have been following the career of Miyavi from Japan. This guy could give Stevie Ray Vaughan a run for his money. He taught himself to play and started out on bass. The "band" is just him and the drummer who has been with him for long time. They call him the Samurai guitarist, and he plays a number of genres, but mostly rock. He is an excellent actor, too. Maybe you will review him. Your insights are good, because you play music. Thanks for your videos; they are pleasant and enjoyable.

Sounds even better now than when I first heard it in high school in 1972! Mellow is the word I always used to describe the feeling this song evoked. Love your reactions--you guys really know quality music, and we certainly had an abundance of it in the 70's. We truly did not realize how lucky we were back then to have music like this readily played!
You should watch Greg Lake sing this live, his last concert before his death. Timeless. Best to listen on a warm summer day , driving with the windows down, stereo blasting with a nice bass.
His live performance of Lucky Man was awesome. He was chewing gum while singing, but you’d never know it just by listening. And he wrote the song when he was only 12 years old! What a talent.
He picked a 12 string box..amazing
@@TheTrojanman83 I Love his solo performance of this song...and I read that he chewed the gum to keep his mouth/voice wet from the saliva.
Tarkus next!!!! It’s long, but you’ll love it.
My favorite!
The live version from welcome back my friends is the best
Tarkus took me a few listenings to get in sync with, but once I did, it is just a phenomenal go-to for me. One of my favorites. A real work of art.
Try Listening to C'est La Vie by ELP (Emerson Lake & Palmer) It was so very rewarding to see you discover the absolute mastery of ELP. I miss Keith Emerson, and Greg Lake may they rest in peace. Anything they produced will open your eyes and senses. Thank You.
I remember being in high school when this came out. I would put it on the stereo, turn out the lights and listen to it with headphones while I lay on the floor. Heaven.
Emerson, Lake, & Palmer: Still You Turn Me On. You guys will love this one too. Greg Lake has such an easy voice to listen to. Play the live version, and watch Greg as he so effortlessly projects his voice. I clicked on your about link, and your families history with music is so inspiring.
ELP was my favorite band when I was in college. 1977 I saw them in concert 5 times. It was the year I graduated from college and I just happened to be in the cities where they were touring. They started the tour with a full symphony orchestra, but it got too expensive so by the end of the summer it was just the 3 of them. My favorite was Keith Emerson. I've always been a sucker for keyboards and Keith was classically trained, which comes through in a lot of their music. Karl Palmer was not a drummer, he was a percussionist. Truly amazing. I wasn't that keen on Greg Lake back in the day, and always thought him the weak link, but have changed my mind and come to appreciate him more as I grow older. It's so great to see another generation discover their music and help to keep it alive. Loved your reaction, and yes, you definitely need to check out more of their music..
Hi Guys! So glad you like the song. Greg Lake was originally from King Crimson. Greg Lake played Acoustic, Bass and electric on this song. Must view, ELP Cam Jam 74 live with Greg doing the great great song, Still you turn me on. Also, ELP live doing the promenade and Sage live. Mind blowing guitar work on Sage. Thanks for sharing. Blessings from Michigan.
Wow, this song takes me back. I was a freshman in college with no money to speak of. But it did not cost much for a group of friends to hang out on a friday night with a bottle of Boones Farm and listen to some ELP. Good times.
I started with Boones farm and Strawberry fields, and felt very sophisticated when we started drinking Mateus in the brown bottle. And chianti in the basket bottle. Good Times!
So fun to watch someone discover this fantastic music for the first time!
We always drank Bali Hai.
If you were able to avoid the Mad Dog 2020 you had a chance of meeting a girl that night . . .
Beautiful song. Greg Lake vocals are superb, as is his guitar playing.
Greg was the heart of EL&P
Multi talented
Trilogy next?
Greg Lake was King Crimson first singer.
As soon as Greg finished with In the Wake of Poseidon and left to form ELP I followed him and I never bought another King Crimson album though I did lidten to them from time to time. Greg's voice was what drew me to KC ... and on then to ELP. Never regretted that decision for a single moment. That was when I was 17 in @ 1970 and 51 yra later they are still my #1.
R.I.P. Keith & Greg
Bassist/guitarist/singer
Keith's solo was a one time thing. They went crazy over it but Keith wanted another stab at it. They had limited tracks and they only had one track and none to do experimenting with. Keith always regretted this. Of course to me it sounded perfect.
Nice info thought that had a familiar ring
@@quentinmichel7581 John Wetton of King Crimson had the voice of an angel.
I saw them in concert back in the 1970's somewhere. They were amazing, and I just got goosebumps hearing them again.
It's nice to young people appreciate real R&R.
It just pleases me so much to see younger generations finally turning to our music and discovering its wonder. Imagine being utterly surrounded and saturated with it for DECADES. It was a different world. We had our problems but we lived in a most magnificent time. Continue to enjoy. MUST listen to ELP, "Still you turn me on".
I’m 61 and I have had the pleasure of being exposed to the greatest Rock music ever written. Watching you two hearing these masterpieces for the first time brings back so many wonderful memories. You need to listen to Queen II from start to finish, but especially “March of the Black Queen”.
March of the Black Queen and White Queen
I'm also 61, and miss this era of music.
@@steveakhurst7845 Back when Queen had talent
Doesn’t great music just lift you up? So glad to see such great choices being made. This was my youth.... what a time. You two are a great couple. So chill and good together. A pleasure to watch.
I had the Trilogy album and I loved it. Wore it out. ELP, one of the first to use the Moog synthesizer. I am a Lucky Man to be born in the late 50's.
I see what you did there!
When FM radio first came out ,it wasn’t full of crap music and ads like now ...they would play whole albums uninterrupted.
Right! My local FM station in Tulsa (KMOD) played albums on Friday nights, after saying: "Ladies and gentlemen... start your recorders!"
It's when they played the long version of Light My Fire....
This is what I've used for several years ❤as my alarm clock on my phone... soft beginning notes, then kicks in with beautiful music and lyrics... a great song to wake up to!! ❤❤❤
Such amazing old classics.. Greig Lake that voice. So much talent before it's time. I will dedicate our fav. song to you both. Our 40th will be in July. I see the relationship you two have. you will make it to 40 yrs " You still turn me on/ Lucky man....... Blessings cheers
They are a very nice couple for sure and their shared love of music will see them through for many years to come. Lucky they are but so are we, sharing this journey...
@ Lois R. : This is one of the sweetest comments we’ve received. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your kindness; you’ve brought tears to my eyes! I can only hope that we’ll share every moment together for as long as this Earth will have us. We will DEFINITELY be listening to that song and will celebrate you and your 40th anniversary - congratulations! Thanks again for your support and well wishes, Lex.
@Vic Provost: Thank you so much for your kind words and your ongoing support! It’s so touching to know that you’re all enjoying this journey as much as we are sharing it with everyone!
WE ARE SO BLESSED TO HAVE PEOPLE LIKE BOTH OF YOU ON OUR CHANNEL! :) Thank you infinitely and sending love, Lex.
@@NicknLex 🤟💕🌺Music be the food of luv play on, Girlfriend!!
So much wonderful music for us all to share.
Blessings to you both.
@@NicknLex You have no idea how good you make this old hippie feel, making so much of the music of my life new again, you have such honest and sincere reactions and having a musical background really helps with the respect you command from your subscribers. Finding something genuine in this day and age is rare, you guys are the real deal! Do 'Love to Love' either studio (Lights Out album) or live (Strangers in the Night Live) from UFO, it fits you to a tee, Vic. :-)
Thanks again for your kind words and support; the amount of joy this channel has brought us is indescribable. People like you make it even brighter around here! We'll keep those in mind and be well, Lex. :)
Britain did such wonderful things with our rock and roll. What a marvelous collaboration. Boomer music is our legacy to the world.
Dude. Your face was flush while listening to this. I can relate to what a wonderful tune it is. This is my favorite from ELP. I still have the vinyl LP.
Yes, weren't we so lucky to be born in the 50's. I bought this album when it was released and still play it. The three guys were concert standard musicians. Greg Lake plays ALL the guitars and Carl Palmer is on percussion. The story goes that Keith wasn't in the studio when they were recording this so it was just Greg and Carl. Keith comes in and Greg says, the end needs some keyboards and Keith just come up with what you hear. Just simply stunning music and musicianship. Stay safe and Keep on Rocking.
Man, you guys REALLY need to get into Yes! Starship Trooper or And You And I are great starters for prog fans.
Yes whatever you do don't go down the Yes rabbit hole 😉 jk it will be another great journey I grew up on Yes, Rush, ELP Jethro Tull, I was more of the Rush age group but my older sister had Yessongs one of the greatest live albums
And You and I..maybe my favorite piece of music...
You haven’t done Yes? And You and I, and Close to the Edge to start. Yes came years before Rush.
And You and I by YES is one of the most beautiful songs ever written!
@@hasltisl I am 65 years old, and I confirm!
One of the best albums ever Pictures at an Exhibition. Claasical music played by ELP. Oh the joy you will have going down this rabbit hole with this amazing trio. Carl Palmer was one of the most incredible percussionists in the world.
Hi, I was getting chills watching this, never got chills all the years listening to this song, it does represent a slice in time, life.
We were lucky to have grown up with this music and by listening to this now you are going back in time too.
Please react to Yes - Close to the Edge. An epic masterpiece!
"Jerusalem" by ELP is an incredible song also. Powerful, mythic and magical.
Yes! Another EL&P masterpiece 👍
When this song and album came out, I had a close friend that died, and listened to this on my way to his funeral. The memories come flooding back. Great song!
Okay, l just had to tell you guys that when a was a teenager and this song would play at the party, most of us would whistle to the end part of this song, if you can imagine that 🤟😜
Love that!!
Thanks for sharing! I would have loved to have been there! :) - Lex
Still do. I was 13 when I saw Cal. Jam. Changed my life.
I was 17 when I saw ELP at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino Calif. 1978 . They just came out in plain white T-shirts and went to WORK ! Blew us all away w/cannons firing and this huge drum set spinning and the keyboards getting tossed around (w/hydrolics) ! They Opened w/the Loudest Sounding ...."Welcome Back my Freinds to the Show that Never ends..so Glad you could attend ..Come inside Come Inside " !! ...So Much FUN, man !!
Fifty years later, this still brings tears to my eyes. Yes, our music back then was so much better than anything produced in the last forty years.
Agreed! Though if you have a chance, checkout the band Porcupine Tree, maybe the song Anesthetize. Band leader Steven Wilson is known for creating amazing things and was inspired by all the 70s greats! :)
Your reactions are as precious as this music was to us back when it first drenched our ears, hearts and souls!!! God bless your hearts as you take us and go back with us to our youth.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support!! 🥹 ❤️
In high school in the 70's my boyfriends parents owned the concert venue in town- i got to see every act! Yes, the Moody Blues and ELP were my absolute favorites. Seeing your reaction to this gave a baby boomer a lump in her throat! You must listen to And You and I by Yes- it is close to a religious experience. love to you!
It makes my heart smile that you have discovered the music of the 70's. Amazing time to have lived in...
I literally wore out ELP's Works...Volume One. A few faves if you haven't listened yet are C'est La Ville, and Fanfare for the Common Man, and of course THIS SONG. Glad you are enjoying! It is fun watching someone fall in love with music you love.
Howdy from Texas.............I’m 61 and this old song brings good old memories. If I ever get my time machine working again, I’m going right back to the ‘70’s !!!
What a wonderful rabbit hole to go down!!! So many wonderful songs. Not to mention the great Greg Lake CHRISTMAS SONG I Believe in Father Christmas amazing!!!!!
Watching your reactions is like listening to this for the first time.
I'm 60 yrs young.
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing with us!! 💗
I saw them in the early 70’s and they were one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen on stage. Keith Emerson was the best keyboard player of his generation. Listen to Tarkus,Pictures at an Exhibition,and Brain Salad Surgery. Keith Emerson didn’t invent the Moog Synthisizer but he did more for synth music than anyone else. Rest In Peace Keith and Greg.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Tarsus is a masterpiece.... used to listen to for hours. Much mote heavy, but then it is anti-war piece.
I’ve been listening to this song for years and still love it! Your first reaction to it mirrors my own. I was instantly transported to a fantasy world.
EL ROCK INGLES DE LOS 70 ES INSUPERABLE! !!EMERSON YES GÉNESIS DEE PURPLE ZEPELLIN Y OTROS SALUDOS DESDE ARGENTINA
When we were teens, one of our friends had an older brother who had several reel to reel tape decks and a state of the art stereo system. He also had the entire basement lined with shelves from floor to ceiling with albums he had recorded in super high quality. At the time it was the best you could get in audio, and he would let us go down there and use it all from time to time. You can't even imagine listening to this music through Crown amps and huge Kilpsch monitors. It would go all the way through you body to your soul.and there were still thousand of records like this to explore for us. New stuff came out literally every week. It was a full time job just to give all the great music of the time a fair listen. 60's through the early 80's were a magical time.
Greg Lake, just wow. You can hear the booming bass of his Gibson J200, no? It's unmistakable. Nothing gets the bass tones like the J200.
Right on Sir. It will be my next guitar.
You are absolutely correct late 60s and 70s is a treasure trove of beautiful music, was lucky enough to be born in 71 and experienced a lot of this music growing up and my father also had a large record collection which included ELP to Parliament Funkadelic I love the 70s music
Yeah, I'm still listening an hour and a half later. OMG, these are some of the most memorable songs of my life - Close to the Edge, Supper's Ready. Props to your listeners who are making these suggestions. Again, keep up the good work!
Thank you for sharing these with us and glad to have you! :) - Lex
This is the song that gets under your skin and never leaves.
I was a teenager when this song came out. Another good one is “Telephone Line”. I played that a lot when my wife passed.😩 Her wings were ready but my heart wasn’t.
I hear ya! My first wife passed away over 13 years ago and it's still hard to get over it and I have remarried since but it's something that you never quite recover from. God's blessings on your life journey.
Makes me very happy that young people know music that was incredible to me many many years ago
I grew up on this kind of music. Our house was always filled with it. In fact, I would say that the best music ever made came out between 1965 - 1975. If you haven't treated yourself to Janis Joplin you are doing yourself a great disservice. Start with Piece of My Heart and go on from there. You will be amazed.
I was born in '54. A lot of what you're listening to (so far) is the music that was the soundtrack for my "coming of age". Great music. And there was a ton of good music on tap back then. My son is in his 40s and has no idea that I ELP was a part of my past. There was just sooooooooo much good music from that time in my life --- more than we late boomers could ever have had time to share with our kids -- especially because they were preoccupied with the music of their own time -- mostly rap and hip hop. I love the journey you're making, love making it with you. Also love your spoken commentaries because you're both so smart, sensitive and candid. Thanks for showing up!
Stumbled across this video review of ELP. I was a Sophomore in high school back in '72. Was a big fan back then. I'm glad that a new generation could appreciate a listen.
This song is a masterpiece, let your children listen to it. Thanks EL&P
You brought a tear to an old hippys eyes !!! Thanks for taking me back to the magic days of the Woodstock Generation.
Once rap showed up it absolutely started the decline in music to what crap we hear now. This song I've listened to thousands of times. Still sounds fresh.
There’s a ton of great hip hop from the 1980s to today. The real problem with music since the 1980s is the record companies stopped allowing artists to experiment and take risks. Nowadays the great musicians and artists aren’t the big names, they’re on smaller labels and have niche audiences. You have to look for them but they’re there. It’s frustrating that this elitist attitude is pushed so hard in old rock comment sections. I love 60s and 70s music more than just about anyone but I refuse to close myself off to new musical developments
It wasn't rap/hip-hop that started the decline it was what came after, namely the talentless canned music that still pervades the industry. Talent is not the barometer now in the industry it's only about how mush money. Same with the movie industry
Rap is blamed unfairly for a lot. So is disco. And punk.
I also think nowadays one has to make a more clear distinction between radio pop that is produced for the charts and created by executives, which ranges from bland to awful. And more indie/underground music which has plenty of great new stuff to discover, but is hardly brought to the attention of the average top 20-listener. Also, for many music does not have the same meaning and relevance it might have had in the 1960s and 70s. It's more something for quick consumption until the next hit comes along.
And then honestly, 1970s prog wasn't exactly mainstream either, was it? For any act like ELP you had a bubblegum pop group, too. YES hardly registered in the charts during their 'classic years', and bands like Rush for a long time were playing to a niche audience.
Lol. Boomer ass comment. That dang cRap!!1
Saw them live in the 70's...fabulous !!! One of the very few songs that could possibly be best ever...
You'll love "Still you turn me on" another beautiful song.
Absolutely UM!!! The live version from Cal Jam 74 is a must. Also, the sage live from 1970, Mind blowing guitar work and vocals by Greg.
I call the studio version of "Still... you turn me on" the WOW WOW WOW song. I like both versions.
First live concert I ever saw was ELP in 1974. Amazing, innovative band that pioneered the incorporation of synthetic sound generation into rock music. To see their songs performed on stage with a massive array of switches, plugs and knobs connected to conventional looking keyboards was an amazing experience. If you haven't done a reaction video to 'Still You Turn Me On' - you should. Thanks for providing a platform to introduce younger ears to so much amazing music created well before their time.
You guys really do an old man's heart good; I love first time listeners. Watching your reactions to this music I grew up with in the late '60's and early '70's is bittersweet: I'm extremely happy watching your reactions and seeing the joy I felt when I played my records---especially THIS one---so many times you could SEE through them. But I am sorry your current contemporary music scene is so devoid of this level of musicianship. It's not that I don't think there's talent out there today, it's just that a.) There's no live music scene (especially NOW) b.) Music is so fragmented all over the place, which leads to c.) You have no RADIO scene to introduce new sounds to the world like we had (AM radio)---JUST sounds. No damn videos. Videos are too distracting, unless they are live performances. You are right, correct here, touting 🎧 HEADPHONES 🎧 as THE way to experience these tunes the first time. You will make up videos in your mind to go with these sounds. Again, I'm an old man, 63, no kids of my own, and it makes me happy that this music will live on in the ears of younger people and not die with me along with my old records which will be shoved in the trash by whoever ransacks my apartment when I go. Stand by for a LOT of suggestions, y'all. You asked for it, lol!
63 is not old, sir
@@tbam994 Thanks, but now I'm 64 (lol!).
diana ankudinova 'rechenka' who knew a russian girl could open the worlds eyes,its a masterpeice.
I'm 71. You never grow out of it Nick. You grow into it. As you've said, there was that much great music produced in the 60s and 70s, it was hard to listen to it all. The radio mostly played crap, albums were expensive to buy (at least for this working class kid) and of course there was no internet. As it happened, I had this album and I saw them live in '73, but there's still a whole lot from the period that I haven't got into, yet. Your dad will have been the same. He would have been aware of ELP, but maybe hadn't explored them too deeply.
YAY!!!! ELP!!!!!!
YES!!! It's been at least 2 decades maybe since I heard this last. I'm a 70s guy from Texas, and this song in particular turned me on to progressive rock way back then. It was truly amazing in that time period.....almost novel. And guess what? It STILL is today 50 yrs later.
One of the best songs ever written with my favorite musicians
I play this at open mic nights and those who grew up in the era, love it. And, I love you guys. Always a joy to watch you!
I love seeing y’all younger folks expressions on these wonderful songs.. I have seen them in concert.I was a hippie in the 70svand these bands were an experience .. glad I lived in these days and great music never dies!
You're absolutely right. It was great growing up with groups like Emerson lake and Palmer
I was born in '64, and I had a mother and father who loved music, all music so I heard everything from the Abba to Yes and everything in between. For my ninth Christmas I got one of those briefcase phonographs, where the top were the speakers that slip off the base and were themselves separate with 10 ft. of wire for each one. Oh and Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, because my mother had asked my best friends older brother what he had played for me, because I was constantly talking about it, and I was hooked! Most of my friends thought I was weird because I was listening to Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, James Brown, Chicago Transit Authority and so on before I was 12! Watching your reactions today has bought back so many memories of sitting in the dark of my bedroom with my headphones listening to all those great albums. You go Alice and Alice into that rabbit hole deeper and deeper and enjoy yourselves along the way!!!
Great song, classic song...but, I would have to say that, by and large, this is not the usual style for ELP. They are much "bigger" in sound, usually. Big keyboards, drums and multi-part epics. Great band, don't get me wrong but, in the main, the are a Keyboard-driven band and it is extravagant, progressive style that they usually throw down. All good tho!
Greg Lake provided the hit songs for them... Emerson is no slouch and his energy is overbearing without the soft touch of Lake to calm things down with a romantic ballad.
One of the most beautiful songs EVER!
I saw Emerson Lake and Palmer on July 3rd 1977 it Baltimore, Md. great concert. This is the first time watching one of your videos.
Funny, but growing up in the 60s and 70s, we knew the music was good. However, it took the crappy music of today for us old-timers to really appreciate just how great it was, as you are doing right now.
Pete -AMEN!!!!!!!
This Song CHANGED My Soul
"Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends!" Keith Emerson nailed alot of his moog solos in 1 take 🙏
I recommend, ELP- Still You Turn Me On
Saw them three times Emerson Lake and Palmer in Frankfurt Paris and Emerson Lake and Powel at the fox theatre in Atlanta
Great experience Glad yoy are introducing this on your show
El disco Tarkus de esta banda no tiene desperdicio.
Saw them in the 70's, when they did the stadium tour with the 70 piece orchestra. One of the best concerts I've ever been to!
Oh! bless you both! I'd give anything to be able to experience this music for the first time again. I'm so lucky to have lived this music for 66 years but....the thrill of the first time listening! There's nothing quite like it. I'm a member of the most fortunate generation; the ones who saw these bands live, who bought their albums as they came out; whose music really has been the soundtrack.of our lives.
I love your videos , it's so joyful to watch you listen to the songs for the first time; Its kinda like watching kids open Christmas gifts and I KNOW how good the gift is gonna be! Xx
We were lucky. So much good instrumental music and so much originality and creativity.
