EMERSON LAKE AND PALMER AT RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL BACKSTAGE, INTERVIEWS AND SOUNDCHECKING, A RARE FOOTAGE WHICH I BELIEVE WAS NEVER AIRED, INCLUDES SHOW OPENING WITH TARKUS CUT. ENJOY! To Keith with wishes of his recovering.
Wow stuff like this is priceless to me iys sometimes better then concert footage you kinda get a idea where there genius minds are at listening to them. Thanls a bunch for uploading
Very cool. Thanks for this rare backstage glimpse of 3 of the best and most innovative musicians of the Folk Rock Era. Was happy to see them live once in 1977 at Cornell’s Barton Hall; an extraordinary concert I’ll never forget. RIP Keith & Greg
impressive, 3 of the best rock musicians ever, super, i say and im not old but to much better than the modern metalprog band, are monsters of the instruments and the music is amazing....
You're welcome. No this video and other parts I had copied from master tapes of MTV Brasil in 93 where I worked at that time, the production of the channel was preparing a special to be aired when ELP came here in Sao Paulo for a Tour, Carl Palmer came to MTV Brasil to an interview, but these rehearsal images was never used.
Got a keyboard tech for me, Keith? That would be my question. That tech freed him up to do so much more with keyboards he had on stage and he did...so much more. I've got MIDI, but even with that, there is a lot of changing things around. Doing it alone, live, on stage can be intense.
...actually, Moog being pronounced like "vogue" is correct. I, too used to pronounce it the way it looks; like "mood". By the way; how great are these backstage glimpses of the great Keith Emerson and his band?...
The original was 1 tier built in 1969 for a synthesizer quartet concert in the garden of the New York Museum of Modern Art. Unique to it is the hardwire preset box. After the concert Moog Music put it up for sale and Keith bought it. Bob assisted over the years expanding it and making custom modules for the system you see here. Great series of clips, thank you
