[Radix]

No connection at all to Longfellow's tribute to Lincoln following his assassination at the end of the Civil War.(Well, likely.) In the early 1970s everyone interested in R&R was just a Hippie, we all knew nothing.

I listened to that album for many hours back in the very early 1970s. A few years following I attended a GFR concert at Boston Garden and that ‘Brain Salad Surgery’ was pathetically awful.

I still have the Closer To Home album, but on CD.

Just for the record, Brain Salad Surgery was a great Emerson Lake & Palmer album. I saw them touring behind it c. 1974.
