Welcome Back, My Friends, to the Show That Never Ends ~ Ladies and Gentlemen is the second live album by the English progressive rock band Emerson, Lake & Palmer, released as a triple album in August 1974 on Manticore Records. It was recorded in February 1974 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California during the group's 1973–74 world tour in support of their fourth studio album, Brain Salad Surgery (1973).
Ladies And Gentlemen - 1974. Welcome Back My Friends, to the Show That Never Ends - Ladies and Gentlemen. Авторы текста и музыки.
Upon its release, the 1973 LP Brain Salad Surgery had been hailed as Emerson, Lake & Palmer's masterpiece. It isn't that the group didn't try hard to give a good show; they did, but left to just his two hands, without the use of multi-tracking and overdubs to build layer-upon-layer of electronic keyboard sounds, Keith Emerson was at a singular disadvantage on some of the boldest material in the trio's repertory.
Welcome back, my friends To the show that never ends We're so glad you could attend Come inside, come inside. There behind a glass Is a real blade of grass Be careful as you pass Move along, move along. Come inside, the show's about to start Guaranteed to blow your head apart Rest assured you'll get your money's worth The greatest show in heaven, hell or earth. You've got to see the show It's a dynamo You've got to see the show It's rock 'n' roll.
Welcome Back My Friends . .has been added to your Cart. There is so much to say about how important this record is. When I was in high school in 1985 I had never listened to ELP until a drummer that we jammed with one afternoon let me borrow two vinyl records Brain Salad Surgery and this one, Welcome Back My Friends. This was wilder music than I had been accustomed to listening to and I was blown away by what these three guys could do with their instruments. I was soon hooked on prog rock and it was largely because of this album in particular.
