I must admit that he has improved a bit in the last 40 years
I have tickets to see him in August.
Don Arden - Wikipedia shudders…
Not heard this. Nicer than I thought it would be.
I know i sent a live recording of this theme some time ago, but i just tasted the studio recording and whoaooo! I wanted to share with you again … jeje!
Enjoy … again!
I found a transcription of the live version. Pdf linked on the author’s blog. I got curious about how to play. I also see some similarities to The Cures - The Hungry Ghost. Maybe its just the minor chords.
Why is music the best? An image caught my eye, which lead to a NPR Tiny Desk Concert that I then forgot about until I listened to Hungry Ghost above and then had to use my back tracking tech skills to find the concert again. Everything is linked. Visual. Audio. Technical. Social. All creative.
Postmodern Jukebox takes retro twist on modern covers.
So, I know that LP since I was a kid
It has always frightened me (the cover I mean: a kind of nightmare reminiscence).
Now it’s mine since … 20 years ?!
In fact, inside artwork is just beautiful
So I decide to cross the line and I have listened it last week for the very first time (and side one only yet).
Tarkus (1971) is the second Album of Emerson Lake and Palmer. Pure progressive rock with really nice kind of pop ballads. Reminds me King Crimson.
Keith Emerson’s organ sound always gives me the creeps. There is something about the harshness of it that makes my skin crawl which makes it challenging to listen to this fantastic music. I love his playing and the sound in general but every now and then my teeth start to hurt and I shiver.
I simply love tarkus!!
On 20’s forced lockdown, i listened tarkus every night … OK! … only first week of lockdown, jejeje
Uoauuu! Thanks for the transcription! I will give it a try … or 2!
Toccata Fugue in Dm. One of my earliest memories of music was Sky’s version and just happened to be prog rock but a different version by Sinfonity the First Electric Guitar Orchestra. (Soundcloud)
excellent, the sounds of guitars are really great
They sound great live. A few more vids on FB. A real sense of urgency sort of like the William Tell Overture. More cello is definitely what I have been missing in keys driven punk.
Something a bit different. The story and process behind The Wildmother’s Dulcimer samples on PianoBook. A community for free (and very full fat!) samples started by Spitfire Audio founder, Christian Henson.
