Well Fergus how does it compare to the 'real' version(s)?
"Interesting" Dermot LOL!!!
Ah Fergus that's no answer LOL! I take it you mean ELP's version is basically self indulgent, boring and ham fisted ; )

No, I wouldn't go that far Dermot. To be fair they made a good effort and perhaps 20 years ago I might have raved about it but now since Jared's thread if I want this music I will listen to the original piano version....it is much more interesting and it really stimulates the imagination in ways that ELP never could.
