Pretty much. In the top list of all-time keyboard players, #2 is Rick Wakeman and #1 is Keith Emerson, and nothing anyone can say can push those two from the top spots.
I just have to say, Greg Lake is one of the most underrated bass guitarists, and guitarists, in the history of rock music. His bass parts are often incredibly complex, but he seems to play so smoothly and effortlessly. And the guitar part on this piece, starting at about 1:20 (where he doubles what Keith is playing on synth) is amazing. I've just spent the last few days trying to figure it out -- it's some of the most difficult guitar music I've ever tried to learn.
The simple fact that they could bring this inSANE masterpiece from the studio to a live gig is SHEAR FUK BALLS GENIUS !!!!! very few EVER realized how this band was decades ahead of ANYONE is the music industry ..........
Ginastera said late in his life that ELP's performance was the only interpretation of his work that ever really captured the essence of what he was trying to say.
Many may not realize that the electronic sounds that begin at 1:58 are created from Carl Palmer's synthesized drum set. Emerson is not playing anything at this point. Carl's custom made stainless steel drum set weighed over 5000 pounds, and the synthesized components were added to it. They could be switched on or off at will.
My formative years would not have been the same without this lot. I used 2 have Emerson, Lake & Palmer on my English schoolbooks at the time this came out, NME & all that. Bloody Marvelous...
I was "Lucky" enough to see Emerson, Lake & Palmer perform Live in 1975. The wimmin were fine,I was drunk and the weed was great but the band topped even all of that And guess what??? I had only just turned 14.... Life was frikkin GREAT back then. Thanx fer the post... Signed,,, Funk!
I WAS THERE! The California Jam 1974 at Ontario Motor Speedway-before they ripped it down. This is where I became an ELP nut. I'll never forget this event. EVER! The sad part is ABC aired this as their In Concert program and royally F'd it up. I was really disappointed at the end result when it aired. Still, I will always remember ELP for their incredible performance and seeing it in person. It was absolutely worth the price of admission.
@@ralphsaenz5044 Thank you. I would rather think about the CA Jam instead constant crap of people getting beat up by cops. I love music. Even occasional classical pieces-thanks to Keith. One other astonishing thing about this is Keith played a concerto. Then the piano was lifted up by a forklift and he spun around while playing. Now find a performer that can top that! I kid you not.
@@3rdandlong that's for sure! Any time I can have a time to look at good music from the 70's I just love it! And ELP has certainly become one of my favorites. I remember when I first heard about Keith doing all those crazy tricks, that's definitely something you won't see anywhere else. My father was just as lucky as you to see them live in 78'. He even ran into Greg Lake next day and had a chance to ask for his autograph! Still has it.
First time I heard this I didn't know what to think. Then I started to get it. And I listened again and again. That was on the vinyl. In the '70's. Still love it.
As a gigging keyboard musician I cannot even comprehend what it took just to set this up let alone perform it live. NO ONE came remotely close to this extravaganza. And to think, when they were does this night, they do it all over again 200 more times in one year. Boggles the mind.
They went crazy in the US. I saw them before that and they did not disappoint, Keith climbing up to the organ, Carl with gongs, Greg singing his heart out. I’m so lucky xxx
Thank you for uploading this amazing and unique video of Greg Lake! He is so talented. Just so other viewers know.... You need to watch for about 2 mins. to get to Greg, but it is worth the wait. Or just scrub the video.
I got stuck listening to Lake's side of "Works" so that I didn't venture beyond it. I shall have to find the time now. It is never too late to uncover genius.
He's no doubt one of the greatest of all time. Look up Karn Evil 9 live on here and check out his drumming on the 9 minute version. Down right amazing.
Yes. And Ginastera said: "This is the best version I`ve ever heard, I can`t believe someone understood my work so well" (or something like that haha) Nice "a show of hands" pic btw
The coolest part about Carl Palmer's drumset is that iPhone cable he has dangling right behind his head. He could easily plug in and charge while playing.
Even then alot of music was dependant on technology. What you do with it is what really matters. These guys went as far as they could with it at the time. like YES, which is My fave, they used every instrument to it's fullest to convay some of the most unusual and complicated musical scores I ever heard at that time.
Younger people have no idea how friggin outrageous this was for the early 70's. These guys might as well have been space aliens in this era. Toccata was just the craziest thing I ever heard when it was released. Brain Salad Surgery is an album every music fan should own...
+carl perkins Carl: Weather Report? Emerson, Lake and Palmer were the ELP, and the greatest in all genres of music. Could the Weather Report write and sing lyrics as ELP? NO.
@edwardreid I was there for the Cal Jam, and ELP was the main reason I weathered it out. They were the last act on the program, and did not disappoint.
In this Carl Has triggers on his drums hucked to some kind of synt preprogramed sound. So when he hit a certin drum a certin sound happened. He would get those things going wild. Very experimental for its time. and for this time too. Thanks for the post
I own this triple live vinyl from 1974. I loved it, I was able to sing along with every tune on it, and I still do like 'Aquatarkus'. But, by hindsight, it was high time for Punk to arrive.
I have a great deal of time for Zappa and the one thing that he appreciated was consumate musicianship :-) I will check out your links in order to further my education - thanks
Ya thats conected to...sorry for the spelling .. I showed up at the Ca Jam the night before and sat about 75 ft from the stage and fell aslep when I woke up there was a sea of people all arround. about the 5th band we left. after/ during Sabbaths drumsolo...... just to many people behaving badley. Nice to see this after all that time... Thanks....
@SuninSanDiego Triggers and mics are different things, the mics are pick-ups for the drum sounds, and the triggers are on/off switches for the synth sounds. Still the coolest drum set ever, Ringo owns it now.
I saw the BBC4 prog rock programme. When he ordered the drum kit it was pure Spinal Tap stuff. -"Do you want the steel 1/4" or 1/2" thick?" -"What's the price difference?" -"No difference" -"Make it 1/2 then"

The composer of this piece, Alberto Ginastera said that he loved this version of his music.
Easy: it's been almost half a century from this performance, and it's still way ahead of our time ...
The simple fact that they could bring this inSANE masterpiece from the studio to a live gig is SHEAR FUK BALLS GENIUS !!!!! very few EVER realized how this band was decades ahead of ANYONE is the music industry ..........
Ginastera said late in his life that ELP's performance was the only interpretation of his work that ever really captured the essence of what he was trying to say.
An Alberto Ginastera's composition, the greatest classical argentinian composer. What a psichedelic performance haha, cheers from Buenos Aires.
used to love the sound of this in halls at college....floating down the corridor as we were studying,all doors open
This is some of the most brilliant music in the history of mankind! So let's have some repect!
Thx for posting this. What absolute fucking legends. LEGENDS. I never got to one concert but my brother informs me he did! Lucky dude.

Way, way ahead of their time. I heard them play all this live in Philadelphia in December 1973, just mind-blowing!
I don't care what anyone thinks ELP doing Tocatta is Amazing...from.the Brain Salad Surgery album an amazing album...
My formative years would not have been the same without this lot. I used 2 have Emerson, Lake & Palmer on my English schoolbooks at the time this came out, NME & all that. Bloody Marvelous...

The huge moog alone with the 360 degree swirling piano...was there at 16 and am a gigging keyboardist still now..
whether seeing them in person or just listening to them on old records, they can truly be appreciated, one of the best rock bands of ALL time.
I was there, in the crowd!!! What a great memory for me.
Let's not forget Greg Lake what a great musicician multi talented!
One of the best drummers ever...a lot of great memories
They went crazy in the US. I saw them before that and they did not disappoint, Keith climbing up to the organ, Carl with gongs, Greg singing his heart out. I’m so lucky xxx
Great, now I'll be humming this tune all day!
I grew up in the 90's and i very well appreciate classic rock and prog.
Beautifull, powerfull, intelligent. It makes me happy that this kind of music exists.
Thxs for posting
Saw ELP at the Elliot Hall of Music at Purdue. Fantastic performance. Keith Emerson ended up pushing his piano over.
This is highly creative stuff; Palmer is great here. I only wish the video clip had gone on for longer, but hey, thanks for posting it.
Thank you for uploading this amazing and unique video of Greg Lake! He is so talented. Just so other viewers know.... You need to watch for about 2 mins. to get to Greg, but it is worth the wait. Or just scrub the video.
This song is in me since I was. not without term. It is extraordinary! Their sound is alternative advancement few decades.
I got stuck listening to Lake's side of "Works" so that I didn't venture beyond it. I shall have to find the time now. It is never too late to uncover genius.
In the 70"s this band was at another level!! I loved this group.We would be smoked up listening to ELP.! man those where the days.
What a brilliant drummer !!
He's no doubt one of the greatest of all time. Look up Karn Evil 9 live on here and check out his drumming on the 9 minute version. Down right amazing.
Skaggs I saw. Wonderful. Thank you for suggestion.
Truly classic and superior to today's music
I attended one of their performances on the "Brain Salad Surgery" tour. It was intense.
These guys WERE the musical geniuses of the day!
Cal Jam 1974...I was there. What a great time it was at Ontario Motor Speedway. ELP ROCKED !!!! So did Deep Purple.
awesome..thanks for posting!!!
Saw them doing this live at wembly in 1974!! - yes really! It was my 1st ever gig. Amazing.
Puts a tear in a drummers eye.
{SALUTE} RIP KEITH EMERSON!!!!
Yes. And Ginastera said: "This is the best version I`ve ever heard, I can`t believe someone understood my work so well" (or something like that haha)
Nice "a show of hands" pic btw
incredible!
love from switzerland
fantastic!!
I was in Mannheim (Germany) 1973 their!
Great!
such brilliantry technical work and ideas for his time, such a brilliant drummer
Great crew! Nobody can give more in their style!
It was pure avantgarde in those days. As a musician you always asked yourself what the hell ELP would do next.
The Monsters Of Rock ! One and Only !
Wow. That was awesome!
ELP was well known and loved even here in Hungary. I remember the time when my elder brother was listening to this
The coolest part about Carl Palmer's drumset is that iPhone cable he has dangling right behind his head. He could easily plug in and charge while playing.
I saw this tour at roosevelt stadium in Jeresey City, New Jersey.
amazing!!! They put on a show. Love Brain Salad surgery.
Even then alot of music was dependant on technology. What you do with it is what really matters. These guys went as far as they could with it at the time. like YES, which is My fave, they used every instrument to it's fullest to convay some of the most unusual and complicated musical scores I ever heard at that time.
This song scared the shit out of me when I was young
RIP Keith Noel Emerson, Eterno!
Greg Lake is just tearing up that black Gibson Ripper bass!
Nobody but E.L.P.sounds like that.....i f-n love them.....
I LOVE that freaky sound they got their guitars to make.
This is not rock.
This is not even Prog rock.
This is ART!!!!
Younger people have no idea how friggin outrageous this was for the early 70's. These guys might as well have been space aliens in this era. Toccata was just the craziest thing I ever heard when it was released. Brain Salad Surgery is an album every music fan should own...
Amazing piece.
tHIS WAS ART!!!
R.I.P. Keith Emerson
Its a pleasure to see Greg on electric guitar
MASTERS at work.
God I loved these guys as a teen. They haven't aged well and look like a Spinal Tap warm up band now.
YES ,, KING KRIMSOM .EMERSON LAKE AND PALMER WERE THE WEATHER REPORT IN ROCK CLASSIC FUSSION BANDS
+carl perkins Carl: Weather Report? Emerson, Lake and Palmer were the ELP, and the greatest in all genres of music. Could the Weather Report write and sing lyrics as ELP? NO.
OF COURSE NOT WEATHER REPORT WAS AN INSTRUMENTAL JAZZ FUSION BAND
You;re such a funny idiot... :))
@edwardreid I was there for the Cal Jam, and ELP was the main reason I weathered it out. They were the last act on the program, and did not disappoint.
SO. MUCH. BOMBAST!
That was / is pure art!
OK, quite surprised to learn Greg Lake played what I thought was a keyboard part at about 1:30. Thanks for the post!
THIS is real music, talent and art !
Absolutely Alberto Ginastera loved it!
simply just funtastic... best drumerr ever for mi :) CARL PALMER and best song toccata ;)
I second that.
Egg was and is after all this time amazing music. Simply amazing.
I couldn't decide which I like better ELP or Egg
In this Carl Has triggers on his drums hucked to some kind of synt preprogramed sound. So when he hit a certin drum a certin sound happened. He would get those things going wild. Very experimental for its time. and for this time too.
Thanks for the post
woow! nunca los había escuchado pero ahora lo haré.
This is my favorite!
man, this is a trippy song. I really can't tell what time signature they're playing in.
I own this triple live vinyl from 1974. I loved it, I was able to sing along with every tune on it, and I still do like 'Aquatarkus'.
But, by hindsight, it was high time for Punk to arrive.
This is the scariest song I ever heard. I love any thing that can be horror movie music.
Huh? Everyone I knew in California back in the 70's LOVED E.L.P.!!!!
This show really deserves to get the Peter Jackson Get Back treatment. It's so epic and yet there does not seem to be a quality piece of film for it.
I have a great deal of time for Zappa and the one thing that he appreciated was consumate musicianship :-) I will check out your links in order to further my education - thanks

can't beleive he s gone!
This song is awesome
THE GREATEST MUSICIANS EVER ! SAW THEM IN '75 BRAIN SALAD SURGERY TOUR.NOTE : NO FLASHING DEMONS HORN HAND SIGNALS EVER !
Fantastic
Still one of the best drummers ever!!!!!!!
R.I.P. Greg: For whom the bells call? For us all...Hope we will meet again
INCOMPLETE!
