I've always thought that Greg Lake was so underrated as a vocalist. He was tremendous.
He’s got an incredible voice and is a great acoustic player
Really? When I was a kid we all thought he had a great voice.
@@bigb6046 I always did too. But I never heard him mentioned with the other greats.
@@billclarke117 Your probably right. I thought his stuff from King Crimson was even better than ELP. Blew me away!
Not underrated by those who know. Greg is considered to have been one of the finest all-round singers in contemporary music. Nowadays, under-appreciated.
Another great ELP song similar to this one is called "Still...You Turn Me On" and it is a Must Hear. Another one of their fantastic acoustic guitar songs is "C'est La Vie" and is another Must Hear.
Indeed. Odd that ELP chose not to release them as singles in the US. Both very likely would've been hits; the latter went to no. 1 in France.
Lake does this solo on a 12 string and it's awesome, it's here on YT.
Don't forget Benny the bouncer fun nrockn roll 50s style
In addition to "C'est La Vie", all the Greg Lake solo-ish stuff from Works Vol I is great. I'm particularly fond of "Hallowed Be Thy Name".
Yesss. 'Still...You turn me on' is a must!
Such a beautiful expression of true love. Absolute purity with zero pretension.
This is my ALLTIME FAVORITE song…. It came out in the summer of 1972 and I was just blown away by the sound of the guitar, the bass, AND the synthesizer, not to mention Greg Lake’s great voice…
@Jerel Flynn
Absolutely! I was 19 when it came out and was completely blown away by the guitar and bass riffs. This song boosted my appreciation for acoustic guitar playing immensely.
Then the synthesizer hits you at the end and takes you away on a surrealistic magic ride. Keith Emerson’s mad genius antics on stage were a sight to behold as well!
Yes, remember What a lucky man he was got most of the air play, but oh man, From the beginning was the song!
Year I got married! Me and mama still love it!
Saw them in concert back in the early '70s and they were amazing. One of my favorite bands along with Yes, Pink Floyd, and the Moody Blues.
All top notch groups!🤘
Only the Best for you, Bro!
Not sure if you guys plan on listening to Christmas songs on the channel...but if you do, Greg Lake's "I Believe in Father Christmas" is definitely one of the best and most under-appreciated 'rock' Christmas songs out there.
Yes please!
I'll agree. Reviewing "I Believe in Father Christmas" would be superb in this holiday season. Great song
I like the 1977 ELP version even more so.
ELP also did a pretty good version of the B. Bumble and the Stingers rock version of Nutcracker Suite "Nutrocker"
this song stads outside of Christmas songs...its just a damn good song that happens to be about Christmas...my favorite ELP song
That was Keith Emerson on the synthesizer. He was a maniacal genius.
Specifically, a very large Moog Modular synthesizer.
With lots and lots of patch cords.
Takes me back 50 years, blacklight on, headphones plugged in, laid back on the bed ELP on the turntable.
Isn't that just amazing? 50 years!? Wow...I might be getting old...lol.😲
My experience also. And I'm not old...I'm chronologically challenged. 😜
Still doing that today.
Don’t forget the joint and beverage of choice. 😂😂😂
ELP’s “Fanfare for the Common Man”, “Stlll you turn me on” and “Cest La Vie” all great songs! ❤️
Not Fanfare. Pirates would be a better choice, it's more digestible. Fanfare is more for the advanced synth lover.
At our local drag strip they play Fanfare for the Common Man as they run top fuel
You guys like storytelling you have to check out pirates.
I forgot about those songs, love them. Thanks for the memories.
@@gregmilgazo4963 Exactly!
For you comment "what is that?" It's a Moog Synthesizer. ELP were one of the first bands to effectively use a synthesizer in their music.
Greg Lake's solo single, "I Believe In Father Christmas" ( original version ) is a favourite, and as it's coming up for Christmas soon, it would be worth a reaction. ❤️
Literally came here to post about this one!!
Yes Please! I don't think they did that one last year
In the charts at Christmas 1975 here in the UK. Always been a favorite of mine.
My most favorite Xmas song of them all!!!
YES.
You gotta react to next is "Still You Turn Me On" it's my favorite by ELP. But everything they do is great!
They are all tops at their instruments. Keith Emerson is arguably the greatest rock keyboardist ever! If Karn Evil 9 isn’t your style, not to worry, they have so many other great songs to hear with all sorts of different styles. RIP Keith and Greg ❤️
Rick Wakeman....
@@mathis21 ABSOLUTELY!
I would maybe take a second listen to Karn Evil 9, maybe with the lyrics. It’s one of the best.
@@mathis21 Haven't heard anyone having the old Emerson v. Wakeman debate in decades. I was trying to think of anyone that's come along over the decades to challenge them, and there ARE a lot of amazing keyboardists since then, but I can't think of anyone on Emerson or Wakeman's level.
Blessed to have been able to see both Wakeman and Emerson in concert.
Greg Lake was a very underrated guitarist and singer.
I always thought his playing sounded far better on acoustic guitar than on electric.
What about bass player?
Hi Guys
Listen to their beautiful 'Closer to Believing, which is a deep love song beautifully sung by 'Greg Lake' It's is very moving and probably one of the most beautiful ever written and performed
She's right, you really need to listen to more of these guys.....
Well, you asked for another one. so..... "Emerson , Lake & Palmer - Still....You Turn Me On" is yet another classic
Greg Lake…one of the best voices…ever…❤😎
"Take a Pebble" is also a beautiful song with Greg's beautiful voice and guitar playing, Keith's grand piano and always Carl's precise drumming.
It is just Greg on acoustic, bass, elec guitar and his beautiful voice timber. Keith comes in at the end with a synth.keyboard.
My all-time favorite song since the day in the summer of 1972 when I first heard it on my transistor radio. Thunderbolt. It still makes me cry, and it's on all my playlists for sleeping to. I literally hear this song every single night. You'd think I would have gotten tired of it.
When you get to some Christmas music , give Greg Lake's Father Christmas a listen.
My absolute favorite band. They had such class. I close my eyes to listen to this song. I could play it on repeat all day.
This band has always been an audiophile's dream. I think best experienced on analog reel-to-reel.
C’est la Vie is one of the most beautiful songs ever made. ELP at their best
Absolutely! It is a Timeless Song that any Generation can connect with on an emotional level. Greg Lake at his very best!
Keith Emerson played a massive modular synthesizer. He would use it to make any number of sounds. Look up pictures of him online to see the incredible setup he would have. All that in addition to the piano and the Hammond organ.
God Bless Gregg and Keith. RIP.
Greg wrote "Lucky Man" when he was 12 yrs old. He is a fantastic guitarist and his voice is so rich and gorgeous.
RIP Greg you are missed. ❤😢 Greg does a live solo of Still you turn me on and it is fantastic.
He's chewing gum while singing.
Yes and RIP to Keith Emerson too.
@@melissabrecosky6520 Yeah, I saw that video. Astounding performance.
Yes with those beautiful eyes. Singing and playing the guitar and smiling the whole time.
One of the best Prog rock groups of all time. I played the cassette until it broke. I loved this album and the next 3 so much. Man! I would loved to have seen them in concert.
Agree with everything but..they might not know what a ‘cassette’ is.
Magnificent --- is the best word I can find to describe them in concert.
The more you delve into ELP the more you will be amazed by their individual and collective brilliance. Check out Greg Lake “The Sage” live for more of Greg’s strong vocals and acoustic guitar abilities. If you were impressed by this guitar work you will LOVE this one.
One of the most beautiful and meaningful songs ever written.
Also, Emerson, Lake & Palmer were really pioneers in Progressive Rock. The 1970s were beyond amazing for music.
It simply doesn't get much better than this. A tour de force of song writing, arrangement and performance. So glad I was a teenager in the 70's!!!!! Try "Lucky Man" again.....and for a real blaster -- "Trilogy"....
Greg Lake is playing all the strings in this song including the bass. Youshould hear him solo and unplugged. He is wicked on a 12 string acoustic guitar.
Vocals, 12-string, electric, and bass on this song.
One of the best songs ever. Rock on.
This is some of the roots of progressive music. Yes and ELP are both filled with musicians at the top of the heap. Talent dripping from every pore.
I just saw "them" last week... it was a heartfelt show. Carl Palmer being the only surviving member had 2 big screens to the left & right of him on stage along with his drum kit center stage. He played along live with the songs from an earlier concert back in the 90's. They mixed it great, and to be playing along side Emerson & Lake once again was emptio al for him as well as us...
For me, this song possesses a magical quality. Simply mesmerizing. Great work on the reaction, Squad. The two of you have truly expanded your respective consciousness for the myriad intricacies of the splendid artists, of that era. Thanks for helping to keep their wonderful gifts relevant.
Another good one is " Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends "
Rest in Peace Greg Lake, we love you!
One of the great Progressive Rock Groups. Greg Lake was a great song writer and vocalist. Keith Emerson was one of a few who brought Electronic Music into the Rock genre. Unfortunately Greg passed away not that long ago and Keith committed suicide some years ago. What a shame. Great Artists!
Classic 70's. Music that never disappoints!!
You need to check out Keith Emerson playing a piano suspended 20 ft and then rotating end over end. He only did this twice because of the injuries he incurred. You can find a recording of this on UA-cam. Keith was a master keyboardist and was also very theatrical.
Please listen to "Waiting for a Star to Fall" from BOY MEETS GIRL.
I think you'd love ELP's song "Still You Turn Me On". There is a live version with amazing sound from California Jam in 1974. Greg's voice will give you chills, he's stunning.
What a lucky man ....
One of my favorites ❣️❣️
✌️♥️🥃 Enjoy your adventures in Music 🎶
Greg Lake was the original vocalist with King Crimson...In The Court Of The Crimson King, This album set the stage for progressive rock. His majestic and elegant voice stands alone.
I wish we had bands today that were influenced by theses type of groups. music today can't take you on any trip like this does. Great band 👍 keep it coming RSR✌️
Excellent choice! "Still....You Turn Me On" is another great ELP song!
I call this Emerson, Lake, Lake, Lake, Lake, Lake and Palmer. Emerson shows up on keys st the end and Palmer plays percussion. Greg Lake sings, plays the acoustic (at least 2) and electric guitars and bass.
"I Believe in Father Christmas," by ELP next. It's the season.
You will absolutely adore Closer to Believing.
Keith Emerson, Greg Lake, and Carl Palmer. Sadly, we lost BOTH Emerson and Lake in 2016, but Palmer is still with us. I think you'd love "Fanfare for the Common Man".
You need to do Still You Turn Me On. One of ELP’s best ever. Also, this time of year, PLEASE do their Christmas song I Believe in Father Christmas!!!
That's Greg Lake on vocals, guitar and bass / Keith Emerson on Moog Synthesizer / Carl Palmer on percussion...
This is one of the most haunting songs I’ve ever known. Listened to it for the first time during the Vietnam war when I did two tours in Asia as a teenager. It always takes me back to that time and place in my life.
It is the number one song of my life.
I'm not a huge ELP fan, but I have loved THIS song my entire life. ❤️
Greg Lake is so good. His playing on this is so clear and it is not an easy song to play on the guitar. I have been playing this song on my guitar nearly every day for almost 50 years now and I still struggle to get it all right. RIP to Greg 'and Keith. We still have Palmer but was so sad to see the bad disappear.
3 musicians that required 3 semi trucks to transport all of their gear to each show.
That would be about 45 years for me. It's a very enjoyable song to play on guitar, almost therapeutic. Lake was very underrated as a musician.
@@magneto7930 Earlier this year I cut through my left little and ring fingers on a band saw. They reattached the bone and tendon and I used this song as my therapy to rebuild strength in my last 2 fingers. Not 100% but probably 95% and I am getting my stretch back to reach down 2 frets with the pinky. So therapy was the perfect word you used.
@@HRConsultant_Jeff oh my...what a terrible thing to experience! I can certainly see where therapeutic would be accurate. Prayers for your continued healing.
I adored ELP Greg Lake was a musical genius
Keith Emerson’s keyboards were so great
Definitely a trio of superb musicians and songwriters. Did progressive rock, folk, rock, classical, etc. Suggest Fanfare for the Common Man, for another change of pace. For another vibe song, with Greg Lake singing again, try Cest LA Vie, you will be able to picture yourself on Paris.
I love hearing a song that is new to me even though I grew up in this era, wow I absolutely love this song hearing it for the first time
This song is all about Greg Lake. He's the bass player, guitarist and vocalist. The keyboard solo at the end is like an afterthought.
You must do "Still You Turn Me On" . Very mellow and lovely to hear, again with beautiful acoustic guitar work. Quite frankly a masterpiece.
Wow! Haven’t heard them in ages! Thanks ❤great song and guitar!❤
Unfortunately Carl Palmer (the drummer) is the only one still alive from this group. He is also the drummer for the supergroup Asia. I saw him in concert in 2019. He did two sets... first he came out and did a bunch of ELP songs with other band members standing in for E & L. Then he did a whole other set with Asia. This at the age of 69 (he is now 72). The man is phenomenal.
Saw them in Nashville for the same tour. Loved it.
Not only is he still absolutely crushing it as a drummer in his 70s, there's never been a day in his career where he didn't look like he could relax after the gig by running a marathon for fun. He is FIT.
That must have been a real treat!
Carl was in the band Atomic Rooster too before ELP. Check them out!
There is a video concert in which Greg replaced the Asia singer for some show dates.
Greg Lake, brilliant voice and talented musician . ELP what an eclectic band. Tarkus some top tracks on that album well worth giving a go.
Possibly the best intro in Prog Rock history.
Flashback to spending my babysitting money on a new album at Sears with no idea what was on it or what you were in for. Spending a whole afternoon on the bedroom floor with my ears wide open. Flipping that vinyl over and over to hear it again. Shaky fingers setting the needle down on your favorite track. New musical love for a lifetime. Sigh. ❤️
Wow! I am 66 years old and I got this album when I was 19! It can still definitely hold its own! I haven't thought about this in decades.
These two young people are hearing something with a real tune, melody, and lyrics. The song is dreamy and puts your mind on a different plane of existence.
This is the kind of laid-back instrumental work that sends me off into the stars....
As a huge fan of ELP I sometimes think their album cuts were just as good as their radio hits. Barbarian, Take A Pebble, and Tarkus are all great songs!
So mellow and gentle and easy to listen too.
This song, Stands alone! Genius.....
Just one of the most beautiful songs ever written in my opinion. I believe this is a for someone who doubts the reason for their existence on this planet of chaos and lost souls. Of course there is no wrong interpretation of any song or poem or story.
I totally agree... The first time I heard this, I must have played it over and .. over . over over .... gut wrenching.
Love this song ❣ You should listen to their song "Still...you turn me on." ❤
Keith Emerson plays all of the keyboards (Piano, Organ and Synthesizers). Greg Lake played Guitar and Bass, and Carl Palmer played the Drums. You two need to listen to ELP's TARKUS album.
Late 70s they played for 2 and a half hours. Quite the beautiful memories for me.
If you liked In the Beginning and ELP in general then I think you'd really love C'est la Vie. Beautiful, haunting song.
Agree. Closer to Believing is another one.
There was a rumor going around back then that Hendrix was talking with ELP about starting a band. It was to be called "HELP' Hendrix Emerson Lake & Palmer. I can only imagine what they would have come up with. Hendrix never had a band that pushed him, most of the people he played with were just playing what Jimmi told them to. He had wanted to play with people who brought their own ideas to the table.
"THIS IS ART BELL FROM THE HIIIIGH DESERT AND WELCOME TO COAST TO COAST AM." This is how I discovered this song. Also Amerie also speeded up this track and used it as a sample on one of her tracks from he debut album.
My favorite is Brain salad surgery check It out I'll be watching and hoping the song is welcome back my friends to the show that never ends. Rocks the house
Lovely song!!
ELP did many styles, from wildly experimental, to classical, jazz, honky tonk, and beautiful ballads like this one, "Still You Turn Me On", "Lucky Man", and "C'est La Vie". These ballads were their shorter, accessible "radio-friendly" songs. Have patience and you will love all (most?) of their fascinating work. Stick with all the albums before "Love Beach".
For songs, try "Take a Pebble", "Pirates" (the one from Works Vol 1 album - a great, fun story, follow the lyrics), "From the Beginning" "Trilogy", "Fanfare For the Common Man" (live is cool), "The Endless Enigma part 1, Fugue, and part 2", and "Tarkus".
Keith Emerson performs his orchestral "Piano Concerto No. 1" on Works Vol. 1, and yes, they even do a really nice Christmas song "I Believe in Father Christmas", which is another easy listen.
Keith Emerson was a pioneer in rock keyboard. My favorite ELP song is Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends. It really showcases Emerson's talents.
All their songs have their own unique individual sounds , That's how talented those gentlemen were !! Quite a few bands from the 70's had the ability to do that , that's when music was music and real talent still existed !!
ELP is amazing. Again, Keith Emerson was somehow strapped to his piano bench and the piano. For the grand finale, the piano rose off the stage then started rotating/spinning. Keith never missed a beat. A six minute standing "O" followed that!! Now consider King Crimson which Greg Lake was a member of before ELP. King Crimson's " I Talk To The Wind" is immersive. "21st Century Schizoid Man" will demonstrate why many say King Crimson launched prog rock. Just read that Rolling Stone put KC's album "Court of the Crimson King" second right behind Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" as influencing progressive rock. Check them out also. Great thoughtful reaction here, guys. Thanks.
Totally agree on King Crimson. The court of the crimson king is a classic.
When you listen to music of the 70's and think, "What is that sound?" 90% of the time it's gonna be the Moog. It was the first synthesizer, and all the prog groups had one. Very big and very expensive, it gave them an entire range of sounds and could be programmed with new ones. ELP made great use of theirs. :)
Must Listen Too Their Music Video Live Before The 1976 Olympic Games In Montreal Recorded In The Stadium Before The Olymoics Started Sensational The Three Of Them On The Tremendous
FANFARE FOR THE COMMON MAN!!!
JAY and AMBER
UNFORGETABLE
🍾🎹🥁🎸🧨
Back in the 70's when this first came out, getting high as a kite and turning this on opened up a whole new dimension to it.
ELP is fantastic! "Lucky Man" is my personal favorite, but another one to react to is "Still... You Turn Me On".
You need to watch Greg Lake do the acoustic version of "Still You Turn Me On". He's chewing gum while singing! Unbelievably great!
That performance must grind on the nerves of some voice coaches because he does such a great job in spite of chewing gum at the same time. Yes, a great performance.
@@mikebetts2046 It's perfection. Absolute perfection.
I saw them 8 times in concert and they were my first concert in 1971. I saw them with the 64 piece orchestra and it is something I'll never forget...they were each genius' in their own discipline!
Sublime song. “Lucky Man” is another ELP classic.
I knew you'd love this one. Still You Turn Me On is another gem by them.
Another vote for you reacting to their song "Still You Turn Me On". Normally I prefer the studio version to live, but the live version of this is great, though it is Greg Lake solo. To see the entire band I recommend their live version of "Fanfare for the Common Man", or "Theme From Peter Gunn".
The Eagles - One of These Nights 1975 studio version only sounds fantastic and you can listen to every detail of the song one of their finest songs ever played
For me, this is college dorm music...my friends and I had much the same looks on our faces the Rob Squad is showing today. Love it.
You picked a great one here; I’ve been trying to play this song for close to 30 years now. It’s a fabulous, mellow song. Gotta do STILL, YOU TURN ME ON next. It’s also pretty mellow and yet also loaded with sounds. You’ll both love it.
The song "Trilogy: is a must hear by them. Keith Emerson on piano and Moog synthesizer...it is a BEAUTIFUL song. Greg's voice is stellar.
