"You can develop a good love/hate realationship with ELP as their records are not quite good enough and are annoying but there is something strangely compelling about them.
So thanks Greg, Keith and Carl for . . . achieving uniqueness (which is something many less maligned bands fail to do)."
Very well said.
I think the furor that has errupted here over ELP really shows you something. Would a review of (let's say) a Throbbing Gristle album ever generate this much response, pro- or con-?
Face it -- ELP is the most controversial band of the 1970's!!!
