As I wait for our pizza and enjoy this #beer, I'm rediscovering something I left behind long ago. Progressive Rock. #Listening to #ELP, #Yes, #Rush, #KingCrimson, and a number of other bands on Pandora via this very old app that still works (for now) called #Pandoroid

Pictures at an Exhibition performed live by Emerson, Lake & Palmer was the album that brought me back to classical music at about age 15.

Written for the #piano, it was famously orchestrated by #Ravel. I've heard it performed once and have several versions on mp3. Perennial favorite! 👍

At the top level it is Mussorgsky's emotional journey as he walks around an exhibition of artwork by his recently deceased friend Viktor Hartmann. But there are captions for most/all of the works, so it is also a recursive tale with stories within stories. 🙂

Some of the original art is lost, so the musical renditions are all we have left. 🙁

Das ist noch die unkolorierte Version des #Tarkus . Das Coloring mache ich digital, da ich Angst hatte, die coole Zeichnung zu verratzen.

Ich fände eine #PrograssivRock #ArtRock #HeavyMetal #AlbumCover Challenge sehr spannend. In den 70ern und 80er wurden z.T. sehr kunstvolle Plattencover entworfen

#AnimalMarch - 29 - #Schuppentier

Schuppentier als #Tarkus . Das Original LP-Cover wurde von William Neal 1971 für Emerson Lake & Palmer designed. Ich habe einiges gelernt beim minutiösen Abzeichnen... und es hat recht viel Zeit in Anspruch genommen.

Hat jemand der Ahnung von #ProgressivRock #ArtRock und #HeavyMetal hat, Lust für den Mai eine #AlbumCover Challenge zu erstellen? Ohne Menschen, aber gute Designs.

I've had one particular bit of a song on earworm all day today. 3:25 to 5:32 of this live version of Fanfare For The Common Man

Would make better hold music than a lot of the crap doing the hold music job IMO.

Works Volume 1

Emerson Lake & Palmer release their first of the progressive rock series "Works" on March 17, 1977. Originally a double-LP, it is divided into four distinct sections. The first three sides feature solo material from each member—Keith Emerson (orchestral), Greg Lake (acoustic ballads), and Carl Palmer (jazz/rock fusion)—while the final side features the full band. It's ambitious to say the least and Works Volume 2 would follow later in the year. #ELP

You Can't Make This Stuff Up ...

Today is the 10-year anniversary of keyboardist Keith Emerson's death. I consider myself lucky to have seen ELP at Selland Arena in Fresno when they were touring Brain Salad Surgery.

While many protégée kids can knock out Vivaldi at 8YO, Emerson could slay on his Hammond organ with his left hand and simultaneously blow the entire world's musical minds on his Moog synthesizer with his right hand. His skills were SUPERHUMAN!

His gravesite in Lancing, West Sussex, England.

From the Beginning
(originally from 1972)
Live from Manticore Hall

(A manticore is a monster from Persian tales that has a human head, a lion's body, and a scorpion's tail.)

Maybe I might have changed
And not been so cruel
Not been such a fool
