the wiki knows all

which is more than can be said for the writer, Greg Lake ''complimented "Stones of Years" as one of his favourite parts of "Tarkus," though admits he is not entirely sure about what it means, but says it is about, "listening, understanding, hearing."

somewhat worryingly I have about 27 seperate versions of Tarkus in my CD collection:-)


27 versions??!!!! Blimey. Have you got the Bootleg Box Set or something?


er, 2 actually 8^O, with consideration towards 2 more, in my defence I would like to add that Lovebeach is shite

To give ELP their due, whilst picking fault with them is a fish/barrel bullet interface situation they do have more than their fair share of genuinely exciting moments spread across the recorded output and the shows on the bootleg box do make you wish you had been there to see the shows.
I've always suspected ELPs biggest crime was to tour & fail with a big orchestra in 77 thus setting themselves up as no.1 punk kicking boys, plus having a carpet roadie and of course Lovebeach.


I've been pondering getting the 1st ELP bootleg box set for some time now - would you recommend it?
