I got to see them in Nashville the same year. Awsome.

1. I was at the Cal Jam show.

Absolutely amazing.

10. Me too....

Went with two busty girls and the first time I ever heard the phrase "Show us your tits" in public. And I heard it a LOT!

2. That is something to watch. Just WOW.

Too bad the quality of the video is so degraded throughout much of it, but I guess that's better than nothing!

It's a shame their output fell off so dramatically after Brain Salad Surgery, too. Black Moon was an awesome comeback for being from the early 90s but that last album In the Hot Seat kinda killed that idea in a hurry. :(

3. You made my day, Shardik

I remember staying up late the week of Thanksgiving. I was in the 9th grade at the time. ABC, I think. It was tough going to school the next day. I believe there were four nights.

4. It made my night when I ran into it.

6. Can't thank you enough, Shardik

I've been e-mailing this chestnut ever since you found it. There are alot of us out there who love ELP. Well done.

5. Thanks for that

I saw this concert in NYC in '74 or '75. Can't remember with a blotter acid brain.

7. Keith Emerson is a heartless slayer of Hammond organs

He should be locked up for his violent actions.

:hide:

8. I've been reading Emerson's autobiography. Good stuff.

Hard to find, though. I had to order a used copy.

9. Keith Emerson or Ralph Waldo, bbernardini.

Details, please, and how to find. I was 12 when I first saw them in Philly. Fascinating. Even though Punk degraded them, I still love those boys.

11. Details.

It's called "Pictures Of An Exhibitionist." I got it from an independent seller through Barnes & Noble's website, although I imagine you could also get it the same way through Amazon or other websites. Has a lot of early history. I'm almost halfway through, and he's still talking about The Nice.

12. Thanks for the info.

I'll try and find it.
