743.0. "ELP available on Disc." by HPSCAD::DDOUCETTE () Mon May 04 1987 10:49

    Good News for Diehard ELP fans...
    
    *ELP WORKS Volume I* double record set is now available on CD.  This
    1977 album is probably the best combination of Rock and Classical
    music available.  The two-disc set is available at Rock and Mania
    Records for the unbelieveably low price of $24.99.

    You forgot PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION.
    
    Yes, TRILOGY sounds great, as does WORKS, VOLUME 1. I was
    surprised at how "primitive" the first album sounds, though,
    compared to the others.

	Er, uh, ummm...  _Emerson, Lake, and Powell_ has been out for over 
a year.  The CD hit about a year ago.  If you haven't heard, it's great.  I 
don't care what anybody says, their version of Holst's _The Planets_ is 
wonderful [it was unbelievable live, in concert at the Opera House in 
Boston].

	Hit Single - "Touch And Go"
	My Favorite - "The Score" has some interesting lyrics:
		"It's been so long, but welcome back my friends..."
		"To the show that never ends."

	Since then, Palmer has rejoined the group and a new album is due 
this year.
743.9Another album? With Powell!!??KACIE::WAGNERI want my &lt;esc&gt; TV!Mon Jun 29 1987 11:4317
    I saw them live at  Great Woods a while ago (can't remember exactly
    when) and they were excellent!!
    
    Where did you get the information that Powell is coming back into
    the "EL" fold??? Interesting and GREAT, if true. If false, not so
    bad either, because Powell seems to have almost the same talent,
    if not the style!
    
    Any ideas on when the new album will be out? Where did you get this
    scoop??
    
    Sign me,
    
    Interested.

    OOOPPPSS call it weekend blues, but the first mention of Powell
    should have said "Palmer" Ie: where did you here that Palmer is
    coming back into the group?

743.11WORKS, VOLUME 2AKOV11::BOYAJIANThe Dread Pirate RobertsWed Nov 11 1987 15:366
    ...is now available on CD. Sounds good, sound-wise, but as fans
    of ELP know, it's kinda like the dregs of ELP material (with the
    very notable exception of their cover of Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag"
    and Greg Lake's "I Believe in Father Christmas").

    The way I figure it, TARKUS should be out within a month or two.
    How do I know? Because I broke down and bought the German import
    at BCD for an exorbitant price ($26). It's a dirty job, but
    *some*body's gotta do it...
