There's a Nearfest 2006 thread you can pull up and read some thoughts about Emerson's performance there.

That's OK. I never saw Gentle Giant.....or anybody before 1979....

Rick,

Thanks for letting me in on the Nearfest thread. I'll give it a look!

As I consider ELP's discography - in a humours vein - I have neglected one song that may need to be considered

That song - from the unacclaimed album 'Works 2' and the song is: "So Far To Fall". While it is short, there is interesting music involved, soaring vocals, screaming synths , but the best are the one line of lyrics - raucous from any perspective - outrageous from every other perspecitve

I mean - how can you go wrong with a lyric like: "She did her thang to my thang , like it has never been done before"

So - give it anohter listen - audacious as it is

Any thoughts? Comments? Suggestions? Recall votes?

Wonderingly,
Ted
