I heard that. I'm sure he will be granted a tribute night on a forthcoming American Idol/X-Factor show. ;):)

I'll have to pull out my copy of Brain Salad Surgery.

Love Beach, their final album, was really scraping the barrel with ELP. A review of it said 'Love Beach isn't simply bad, it's downright pathetic. Stale and full of ennui, this album makes washing the dishes seem a more creative act by comparison" Classic review.

I had that on a floppy disc from NME. :lol:

It might be down in the basement with some other singles and LPs.

Only one I really still play is the debut album. The new remastered version sounds wonderful
