Title: BORING!
Product review: In the 70's, ELP was an entertaining live act. When they were with their 80 piece orchestra, double size drum kits and flaming/ wobbling pianos, those 30 minute instrumental solos seemed great.Without the visual, that same music is very boring and lacks the "punch". ELP is no "jam band" so the 3 minute radio version of "Karn Evil 9" blows away the endless 30 minute live version. The Greg Lake works (Lucky Man, Still... you turn me on) are much better in their recorded form.Only "hoedown" generates enough energy to make it interesting.I'm not saying this is bad but a 3 record live ELP work represents the good, but also the bad of the band.
