i know and love Carl Palmer, i was trying to make a bad joke i think. If they had one more member, and his name ended with K they could be KELP. maybe Robby Krieger?

Hi, Michael, Thank you so much for sharing this. It makes me happy that you were/are genuinely a fan and appreciated talking with them. That makes this a great interview, because everyone is relaxed and we get to enjoy the good humor and camaraderie that were so wonderful between Carl and Greg. In some interviews, ELP were somewhat guarded and uncomfortable because the interviewer unfortunately wasn't very knowledgeable or curious about them, and sometimes put them on the defensive, but happily this interview lets them shine. Thanks also to the camera person, who beautifully filmed Greg playing "Lucky Man," and enabled guitarists to see chords and strumming techniques Greg played. ELP were a fantastic band. I was amazed by their first album, which came out when I was 14. A year later, my parents finally started allowing my musician brother to take me to rock concerts, and he treated me to both nights of ELP's San Francisco shows of their Tarkus tour as my second and third rock concerts. The morning of the first show, he introduced me to Greg and Carl, and Greg invited us to spend the day attending ELP's sound check/full rehearsal. Greg and Carl came over and talked with us every time they took a break, and they were friendly, kind, and generous. Keith played non-stop, and appeared to be composing a new piece that turned up later on Brain Salad Surgery. It was an amazing memorable day. I very much enjoyed the friendship and good humor Carl and Greg had that are seen in your interview. Thank you again for sharing this. My granddaughter is now 14, and she's enjoying learning to play "Lucky Man" watching your video! Wishing you good health. Best wishes, Cherie

I love listening to Greg's voice & his singing. He had a wonderful musical career in his life ❤️. I can remember m very the first time I heard him sing Lucky Man, I feel in love with him then & have been ever since.

If memory serves, Greg wrote this when he was a young teen, like 12.

Yes, he was 12. He'd just gotten a hand-me-down guitar from his mom, and the rest is history. Thank you, Mrs. Lake, for giving Greg a gift that would keep on giving, to Greg and to the world.

I agree with Greg that music had reached its zenith in the 1970's, it did slowly start to go slightly sometime starting in the late 1980's but didn't become awful until the early 2000's.

There are many reasons why the music industry hated ELP, but mainly it was because they remained pure and incorruptible.

Yes, Love Beach was a real clunker, and they knew it. They were totally burned out after years of touring and pumping out music nonstop. They needed a break, badly, but the record label had other priorities and demanded that one last album that was part of their contract. They made that piece of cr@p because at that point they simply did not give a hoot, so they did the album and it bombed, which they knew it would. It was sort of their f.u. to the record label goons.

Really? Is that an English thing? When your mate comes to get you for a pint and you tell him that you can't go because you have to spend time with your woman, do you say 'I can't go mate, I have to perform brain salad surgery on me bird'?

Not exactly! More like something the wife performs on you. The original album title was 'Whip Some Skull on Ya" - which means the same thing. A guy at the band's record company office in NYC suggested changing it to Brain Salad Surgery after hearing the lyric in the Dr John single. A wise move!
