Very nice. I assume the Expos were on the road.

Copeland deserves at least a little credit.

I saw ELP in this era at a 6000 seat arena in the round on a revolving stage. One of my most memorable experiences, great performers and one of my favorite to this day.

Interesting. I saw ELP in the (now long gone ...) Chicago International Amphitheater in 1977. Will never forget how they "blew up" the huge synthesizers used during Fanfare for the Common Man.

I've seen my share of rock 'n rolls shows --- that one is still heads and shoulders above all others and is my favorite. What a great, great show they put on!

Karn Evil 9 1st Impression is still my favorite piece of music ever - even with Carl’s interminable drum solo (never liked drum solos - no offense to the drummers out there).

I saw ELP at Jenison Field House at Michigan State University in 1977. It was a terrific concert; they were a terrific band, until...Love Beach. Talk about losing your cred in a hurry.

One of my all time favorite Aaron Copland compositions.

Very nice to see an older video of REAL musicians, without any of this new-improved-junky auto-tune voice, no females shaking their overfed whatsits, no rapping supoosed-to-be-cowboy music!

These were musicians of a different caliber.

Thanks much!!
