...Some Boomer is gonna hate me for this (and I'm a Boomer).

I was surfing YouTube, and got into videos about the Moog synthesizer. It reminded me of my brother coming home after his freshman year at Auburn over fifty years ago. He was all stoked about this groovy ban, Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Well, today I heard, Lucky Man, played for the first time since 1971.

After listening, I can now say I've found a band I hate worse than Rush. The only redeeming part of the song is the Moog solo, which is overwrought, but interesting, at least by 1971 standards. Maybe some Sin Semia, love beads, and a head band, would have made it sound better, but I doubt it.

So what's your take on ELP? Do you remember them? What were you listening to in 1971?
