Formed in 1970, Emerson, Lake & Palmer helped define and set new standards throughout one of the most ambitious and experimental periods in 20th-Century popular music. Drawn from The Nice, King Crimson, and Atomic Rooster respectively, they were hailed as progressive rock’s first supergroup. Combining driving dynamics, intricate arrangements, and virtuosic skill, between 1970 and 1978, ELP released seven studio recordings and three live albums. Such was their popularity on both sides of the Atlantic that their records repeatedly achieved Platinum status sales.
Titles such as Tarkus, Trilogy, and Brain Salad Surgery created distinctive worlds that incorporated soaring themes, other-worldly timbres, yearning ballads, humorous pastiche and dramatic long-form conceptual works. While they adapted pieces by classical composers as stylistically varied as Bartok, Mussorgsky, Copland, Ginastera and Rodrigo, ELP sounded like nobody else but themselves.
The trio performed live one final time at London’s High Voltage Festival in July 2010 just weeks short of their debut gig 40th anniversary.
Although Keith Emerson and Greg Lake both sadly passed away in 2016, interest in ELP continues to grow, and Carl Palmer’s own band regularly performs a setlist dedicated to the unique music he helped create. ELP's music continues to find new audiences more than 50 years from their beginning, a striking testament to the group's irrepressible blend of energy, eclecticism, and visceral excitement.
Lyrics:
He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was

Who is listening in 2024???? I CERTAINLY AM .
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It's me !!!!!
Hell yeah brother!
You know it❤ Trump 2024
@@thomasthomsen4902 Me too. I have the LP, Cd, and listen now on TH-cam.
And did you know, that Greg Lake composed the song at the age of 13?
😊👋👋👋🍀🍀🍀
How many of you remember listening to this with headphones on, and hearing the channels switch back and forth during the Moog synthesizer lead - and then uttering to yourself "Oh, man, far out." Life seemed so simple back then.
Count me in on that! I was only 10, but it blew my mind. Freaking awesome!!!
I'm still doing it!!!
Always will do as long as I live ❤❤❤
Remembering my beloved sister who passed away in 2009... and many memories from my childhood and adolescence..
Today is
March 26, 2024
Rest peacefully well, Emerson & Lake
🤍🕊🤍🕊
And full of possibilities! Who would have ever dreamed America would devolve into this dystopian nightmare we are all living through…
The first time the Moog Synthesizer was heard on a rock song.
That's what that's called!
This song brings back so many memories. I remember when it came out back in the 70's not long before I joined the Marines. But it was later that a more meaningful memory is created. In 1979, I was on a date with a young woman and we went back to her place. She asked me what music I wanted to listen to and as I looked through her extensive collections, I saw "Welcome Back My Friends to the Show That Never Ends". Although the album had been out for 5 yrs., I had never listened to it before. Two songs stood out above all the rest. Lucky Man and Still, You Turn Me On. I'll never forget that night and we got married the following year. Our 44th. anniversary is in 12 days. May 10.
Happy Anniversary. Great story!
🎉 me and my husband same day may 10🎉🎉
I'm 32, I love this music. And I love what this song meant to you and your wife. Cheers to the two of you, to love, and to a timeless classic such as this.🍻
@@robinmcdaniel8971 Only one problem with May 10. Sometimes it falls on Mother's Day. It doesn't matter to us since both of our mothers have passed away, but there were times that our respective mothers couldn't understand why we were not willing to spending time with them instead of celebrating our own "special day".
I love that love story...... thank you for putting a smile on my face....🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎼🎼🎼❤️❤️❤️ Been a devoted lover of ELP since the 70.....2024now....the magical journey will always allow me to float...... emotionally and physically....to other dimensions❤️❤️
I'm 74 and still enjoy very much listening to this music
I'm 71 years old, and love this song for ever.
I’m 54 and simple man and lucky man (lucky man by the verve) have been my anthems but I remember this one and my 21 year old recently got into prog rock and brought home these elp albums home from school. Lucky man I am !!
and sparking one up
u are a good man
iam 66
Must be a 70s thing. 76 here Happy Memorial Day old dogs 🐕 ❤️
I miss my youth living in the 70's ❤
Amen brother know the feeling.
I don't know any one that grew up back then that doesn't miss it. I also know a few young people that wish they had.
The best music ever.
I do too brother. But we lived through the best of musical times. We were so lucky. That will never change-we were there, then.
I am 77 and this still makes my hair stand up........ ❤🎉
64😅
I was reading your comment and as soon as I heard the first few chords, the same thing happened, because you know where it's all leading - to that spine tingling Moog solo, what a song!
67 looking at 68 I have your back
Got it
At age 72 wish I could go back to the 1970's. Still have the original album. There is no going back. The grave awaits us all.
I’m 148 years old and this still slaps
55,000 days
The bands of yesteryear had unmatched imaginations, talent and brilliance that flowed like water for about 30years and it will never be duplicated again , i was lucky to haved lived with the the greatest music ever . coming up in the 60s and 70s just can't be explained. Not to mention the cars and hotrod's that were every where .
Graduated from HS 1966 Been in love with music since 1958.Heard Danny and the Juniors- At the hop! I was 10 years old- I lived the music of the 50,60,70 and 80's Some of the 90's but I can't get enough time for it all. "What a drag it is getting old"
@@torch6653 hang in there brother, take care of yourself. Peace ✌️.
Folks this band is a legend no matter how old we are
This brings back lazy, summer afternoons with my friends stoned out of our minds. We would listen to this album and Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon over and over. It was a magical time. I miss those days and friends so much.
So wonderful and meaningful
RIP Greg Lake and Keith Emerson I forgot how good this is never tire of listening
I'm surprised that a song that's over 40 years old gets so many clicks. 👌👍👏👏
I am 70 …,,this is my fav song since a very young age
I'm 71, and this song is one of my favorites for ever.....
Why does it seem like there were a GAZZILION great bands when we grew up?????
Because there where. Not too me now
Because there were.
Leaving the big band era to find two, three , four musicians on stage and suddenly music became intimate for us. The 50's brought us crooners and pop singers and big band.
Close up we become acquaintances with great individual talents.
This is a part of how lucky we were to be young and feeling free. ( Silly us.)
At 77 it is a mixed bag of feelings that pop up hearing this. That wonderment at such a sound, the lyrics and the haunting sense of the story. Still all of it is the same today. They were wiser than many of us. Living as a teenager in the 60's and a young man in the 70's it was glorious to have this kind of music in the background. If you were not there you cannot get the full gist of it.
It's 2024 and I'm 63 this year. This song was one of the first I learned on bass 50yrs ago, I still play it for my friend JoeyD, RIP
Me too. We grew up with the best music.
I’m 70, this is an awesome song
Yes, life did seem simple back then......I long for it now.
So very bad, so many people and times we miss dearly, it brings me to tears
R.I.P. Greg Lake - Seven years ago today
Ya Man..Greg Lake...The Greatest in History.There all going Biggest Artists..Sucks man..❤️🎸✌️👍🌈
he will be missed.
I was just a little kid, but the song made an impression on me from the start. It still holds up all these decades later. Pure golden bliss.
Im 56 heard this song my whole life, truly one of the great ones.
64 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉
Me too 64yo🤗❤👍🙏 LOVE AND PEACE🙏
composing a song like this at age 12 is beyond comprehension
Yes. Even so the generative power of poetry and imagination, the need to bring out our inward light is real at every age from infancy long into our adultery. Perhaps our songs live on beyond us when we are no more to be found.
Beauty beyond death:
"DUST"Danny Kirwan!❤❤❤
The first version of this song was originally written by Greg Lake when he was 12. The first song he ever wrote.
Genius
What was Greg Lake thinking when he wrote this song?
"HE HAD WHITE HORSES...AND LADIES BY THE SCORE."
"ALL DRESSED IN SATIN...AND WAITING BY THE DOOR."
Being a lucky man, the reason for having scores of ladies dressed in satin and waiting by his door is both obvious and perfectly understandable. In light of the fact that we all know what those ladies were expecting to have done to them, by him, once they gained entry past the door, what has had me baffled for the last 54 years is, what was he also going to do with scores of white horses, also dressed in satin and also waiting by the door? Beautiful song, strange mind fuck imagery. HMMmm.
Of Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer, Carl Palmer is the only one left alive so time is running out to get this Earth stopping question answered. Please help!!!
Time is running out for many things. It's a force that stops for nothing and no one....not even god itself.
Did not know that. Thanks! ❤

"He had White Horses And Ladies By The Score."
All Dressed In Satin And Waiting By The Door."
My question to you is, who the hell dresses scores of white horses in satin and why were they waiting by the door with scores of ladies also dressed in satin??? We can assume what his plans were with the ladies but what was he going to do with all those satin draped horses? Sounds pretty kinky to me.
Excellent, how I remember this.
I think the music back then is more enjoyable than today's music.
...I think the music back then is more enjoyable than today's music...
Absolutely!!! Where's my time machine???
I first heard this song in my father’s car as a senior in high school. I can still feel all the hair on my arms and the back of my neck standing up when I heard the moog synthesizer at the end. I turned to my dad and told him that that sound from the synthesizer was the future of music! He turned to me and said “nothing is better than jazz”! I have been an ELP fan ever since. RIP Keith Emerson and Greg Lake ❤.
Nice memory of your Dad
❤🎵🎶 You were both "spot on". 😎👍
Lol! My dad said rock and roll was "just a phase"...Dads in those days, sheesh!
Poor dad, jazz has ALWAYS been pure crap…. Idc how hard or much talent it takes to play…. I listen to music to listen to it… nothing more 😊‼️
Wow....a long time ago, far away....but "yesterday once more...."
Beautiful 😊
'Soon 81, this bring chills and tears. Thanks. Jim
Certainly don't have great music like this to enjoy these days!
I saw them in the 70's. They came up below the stage in front of the drums. Fantastic show. These three guys are so talented.
I listened to this the other day and thought, when did I get old 🤷♂️
the lucky man is not to just one life, but being alive during it all
YES!!!!!!!
I’m 68 and I still have my cassette tapes love these guys synthesizers. the harmony were amazing. I followed them and Gary Wright the dream Weaver.
Back in the day, this was real Progressive Rock! 😏😋
Just an extraordinary song I've been listening to for more than 50 years.
Rest in peace Mr Keith Emerson and Mr Gregg Lake...🙏🇸🇻
"An oldie...but a goodie...just like me!"
Remember so well....what music we grew up with🙏🫂❤️☮️🤝🤙🎉
My space in time this and moody blues
Fer sure. Moody Blues my favorite British band.
Ahead of its time, the best
Use to play this on my Reel to Reel. It was almost hypnotic to watch the needles on those wide swing analog VU Meters. Very noticible alternations with how this song has so much phasing between channels. Fun times!
what a beautifully haunting song...one of their best..Greg Lake's voice as smooth as silk....now, go listen to "I BELIEVE IN FATHER CHRISTMAS "
Moog synthesizer is the star of this song!
I Looked at a Moog couple years ago.Through Sweetwater Music..I was just Looking there cool what you could do real sharp..🎸👍😁
This is one great song that I never tire of hearing. This single piece introduce the Moog synthesizer to the world of pop culture and it has never been the same since. Keiths glorious solo took the whole world by a storm.
Perfect in every way... Gregs lyrics and guitar playing, Carls properly constrained drumming, Keith's "bagpipes". Stunning at 14 years, 67 years and everywhere in-between.
This was the first song that I heard a synthesizer on and I thought it was cool.
My father and I only ever bonded through music. He liked music I liked sports we were different but he loved showing me his records and playing the. Elp was his favorite. Even had his own elp like band. Never got famous cuz I was born. Even bill bruford reached out to him to tell him he liked my dad's record. Every so often I revisit elps catalog to be close to him. RIP dad ❤
May his memory be a blessing and a comfort to you. 💗💓💗
Also ty :)
this is truly a strange and wonderful story thank you. keep jammin is all i can say
Anniversary of my dad's death is coming next week. We too enjoyed going to concerts and were best friends too. Hope a little ELP brings you some joy. I miss mine.
@@anakina1 May the memories of your father be a blessing.
La finesse du jeu de Palmer est remarquable et m'a toujours impressionné. Comme quoi on peu produire de grands chefs-d'œuvre en étant que trois. Je comprends mieux aujourd'hui pourquoi ELP restera un groupe mythique et iconoclaste dans l'Histoire de la musique moderne.
Amazing masterpiece from the summer of my years.
You still go it Amiga..
I considered myself a hard rocker back in the day, but when I’d hear this it would kinda freeze me to my core, it was and still is great music! Amen!
Still an awesome album! Always thought their music was a notch above most of what we were listening to back then.
Ahh my teenage years
I used to be on air at an oldies radio staton ..ended my show with this.
So cool
nice
Saw them 1971 at the Forum. Still have my ticket stub.❤❤❤
I still listen to this with my headphones on. My wife doesn't appreciate my music. Her loss. Vaughn
Me siento un poco extraña entre tanto ingles! Quién desde méxico escuchando esta joya?
June 2024, still love it all friends
June 4 '24🎉
Saw them live in 1977 Chicago Soldier's Field concert with the whole orchestra for Works Vol 1 ---- unbelievable... a great summer of rock.
I used to come home late night, drunk, in college, and crank this tune, much to the displeasure of my roommates. Circa 1985 if you were wondering.
Epic song!
👍🏼👍🏼
And not to forget a 4th person who was instrumental in making this song so great...literally: Bob Moog...when I first heard that song and the Synth solo starts around 3:20, I was hooked for life by that sound...so many great Synths nowadays and all, but that sound is...timeless. I sat in front of our old radio and thought WHAT BY ALL MEANS IS THAT??!!
The best ELP song of all time. First time smoking weed listening the synthesizer and loved keyboards from Keith ever since. Greg Lake had one of the best melodic voices ever. Can’t say enough about Carl and the drums. Miss this group a lot! RIP Keith and Greg!
Don't smoke weed anymore.
ELP forever for my earsI am a lucky man with the Lord in my heart!!🎼🎼✝✝R.I.P. E&L!!!
Great song, good times, good people,
Greg's voice on song - a lucky man.
You should listen to the live version
Another LP whose jacket I had to tape...nearly 50 years ago.
Gracias por su musica , y una Estacion de Radio Doble 9 en Lima Peru ,aquellos tiempos 🎸🎸🎹🎚️📻
I bought the LP as soon as I could.
I am listening too! I have this record on first release vinyl. The Moog rocks!!!👍😎
Great remastering of a great song of one of the top bands EVER... RIP Greg and Keith; you are and will be with us. Long life to Carl Palmer !!!
I remember this on AM radio... Lol
Haven't heard this for a long time. Thanks for the video!
Still listening. Greg wrote lucky man when he was 12. They one of the best seventies rockers
One of the greats of its time.
I read that he was 12 when he wrote this, they needed an extra song for the album so they used this one. I'm very happy they did. ❤
Marked Safe...from the 60s😎❤️
those vocals at 3:16 are really the icing on the cake to an already perfect song. this will always be a masterpiece
Haunting sound for our mortality!
This is the best recorded version - BUT! The best version I've heard was live in the Summer of 1977. Greg came to stage by himself in a pool of light and sang, playing an acoustic guitar. No other backup until that last part where Keith came out of nowhere with the ending. His voice was as near perfect as I've ever heard him. Wonderful experience.
I remember hearing this song for the first time very vividly. It was on CBC radio playing through one of those all in one stereo consoles everyone had. AM/FM Short Wave and a record player. My dad used to listen to CBC News but this came on just before that for whatever reason. The drum fills blew me away and the timing of the song. So odd but beautiful. NOthing like it I ever heard on the radio. Then the pathos and emotion of Greg's voice and the melodic bass lines. Wasn't til years later ....I noticed that off beat guitar arpeggio in the background. IT gave it something special. Then the maestro and magnificent paint stroked at the end of the song. KEith Emerson on the moog. Absolute chills up my spine. Then 20 years later 2 blocks from the house I grew up in and where I heard this song ELP came to my town and played at Centennial Hall. I could not believe it. How such a big band in its day could come to a venue of 1500 people or so. No light show ..no theatrics just straight ahead playing and singing. THey did not disappoint. Virtuosos all of them. THank you for all the great music and memories. This song shall live in my heart forever. I am a Lucky Man!!!!!
Every night this song was the last played by the DJ Jean-Yves in the 70s. Still in my top 3.
Very underrated song by a lot of people
ELP...OH YA I'm ELP Fan 70s-80,s Master Pieces..Lucky Man..and other they have are awesome😁🎸✌️👍🌈
Ein großartiges Lied von großartigen Musikern vorgetragen.
You had a cool dad to do that congratulations that's a good memory to have I saw this band on Brain salad surgery tour and they were phenomenal they played this song and they were truly professional all three of them each one of them is doing an amazing job of doing that song putting it together cuz it's pretty complicated to have that timing and just to make it feel good be safe be peaceful😊
I certainly do those were the good times!
wow magic, fantastic , thank you 👍👍👍
Master Greg rip, respect Masterpiece. Favorite song ever.
EL&P...genius musicians. What memories I have of my youth when I hear their music. Timeless
I owned this album!
ELP Had a Quad Speaker System at Their 74 Portland Ore. Show I Felt 😁. U Could Feel it Moving From Speaker 2 Speaker in The Portland Coliseum 🎉🎉
Have not heard this in a long time..thx ✌
Classic
WE 😍 YT and ELP! 🇦🇹
I can't wait to hear the Castellows cover of this. Those 3 country girls harmonizing, acoustic guitars, and a fiddle. E.lly, L.ily, & P.owell. This song is timeless.
Brilliant ❤
I did a spoof of this song once called "Lucky Dog"---and at the end, instead of a Moog solo---it was dogs howling!🤣🤣🤣
Very great song I like since my youth!
Great Album and Great Band,
I remember that same effect on Born to be Wild 😎✌️
