Above is Emerson, Lake & Palmer’s version of it. Don’t watch the video though - it is just a mix of other live video in which the poster tried (poorly) to fit the music.

Ah yes! I remember buying and listening to Brain Salad Surgery when I was a teenager. The album art was the best, as was Karn evil 9 and Benny the Bouncer.

But their Jerusalem was my introduction into William Blake. I actually went to the library and read Blake's The Complete Illuminated Books. I then hounded my college town bookstore to get me a copy, and spent my minimum wage salary for it.

I thought I was something of an artist then and tried to draw angels, demons and other heavenly figures Blake style.

BTW, I always thought Benny got a bad deal. Sid was a murdering thug!

Love ELP. Have you ever noticed the some of the most memorable and wonderful music and hits were made by 3 member rock bands?

ELP, ZZ Top, Rush, Cream, Genesis, Triumph, The Police and Grand Funk Railroad to name a few. There are many more.
