Do you remember ELP, some of you old ones out there?
I do. "Brain Salad Surgery" got me mesmerized when it arrived in 1973, and I moved to my dorm room at the university.
And the alien album design by Giger. Really cool. "Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends..."
So grab the knobs on your NLA1 and go "Karn Evil". (Who needs a Moog?)
