Carl Palmer was an animal on drums.  Saw him 10 or so years ago with his trio and he was still a madman back there

 

Carl being an animal for 50+ minutes

 

People don't understand how violent this band was with respect to the music scene in 1970. Black Sabbath was heavy; ELP was menacing. They were high cerebrum and high testosterone. They used all their music on those boomer sports highlights because there wasn't X-game X-treme foolery at the time.

The Megadeth of their era. Virtuosity + vitriol.

 

 

Can't believe how Lake's voice quit. Keith had to downtune the songs to bounce down to Greg's lack of range at the time. Lake's vox on the first few KC and ELP records was legendary, it was as sad as Ian Anderson or Elton John's blowouts.
