Hey! Don't pick on ELP! Sure they were one of the first Glam Prog Rock bands, but somebody had to do it!
Actually, ELP's live version of "Pictures at an Exhibition" was the first album that I bought. I had heard the album auditioned on a local AM radio station late one night. What weird and wonderful noise this was! I got it as my (16th?) birthday present from my parents. You should have seen the look on my Dad's face when I played it on the family's stereo console! He said I had just waisted good money on a bunch of racket! I was hooked on weird music from then on!
This noodle still sounds pretty cool - even if you tried hard to make it not sound like "Pictures".
BTW, did you happen to save any of the versions that did sound like "Pictures"? _________________ varice |

For me it was one of the first albums I bought, the very first is too embarrising to mention but it was some Paul whatshisname with his wife Linda :-)
Damn, now I've got all _those_ songs back in my head ... back to ELP, quick ...
I played the the record very often at the time (and my mother hated it, which was good of course), later the Glam aspect became less appealing to me. It does have some pretty wild synth stuff tho.

No, sorry ... but when you like to experiment ... you could try to isolate the patch from slot A make the lfo's run fastter, the envelopes longer and the tuning lower - it should go into the right direction then. Probably some extra reverb will be needed.

You are right. What a great way to look at it. "somebody had to do it!". Well, I must say, they did it well... _________________ --Howard
