Customer Rating:      Summary: Timeless ELP Comment: This contempory performance form ELP is a must have for hard core fans. Its energy is different from the younger, wilder days but nonetheless it still shines through Keith's, Greg's and Karl's musicianship. The roots of ELP are still intact, as creative and musicaly inteligent as before.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Emerson Lake & Palmer - Live at the Royal Albert Hall Comment: This is an excellent DVD, good sound, really enjoyed it. Great to watch
Customer Rating:      Summary: Close But No Cigar Comment: Yes and ELP were 2 of my favorite groups of the early 70s. Having seen ELP twice in '74 and '77 (Yes, I've seen 4 times), I have to say this is somewhat of a lackluster performance. The dynamics of their earlier performances just isn't there. Not that there aren't any good moments. Rondo is a real knockout with Keith revisiting the good old days of abusing his Hammond organ. Greg's voice seems somewhat strained but still retaining it's richness. But what do you expect, the guy's nearing 50. Even the ever durable Paul McCartney is starting get a little ragged. As a drummer myself, Carl was of course one my favorite drummers of the 70s and still is. However, his solo during Pictures is a bit of a disappointment. He just doesn't whizz around the drumset like he used to. He spends more time playing cymbals and gongs than he does playing the drums. All and all it's still fun seeing these guys performing again and this dvd is the best thing to get from them. But if you want to see them in their prime, check out the Montreal '77 concert dvd available on their website. Picture and sound has a bit to be desired, but the energy of their performance really comes out. Even Carl has a 10 min solo on that beautiful custom steel drumset he used to have (He ended up selling it to Ringo). And OH if they could only just restore the California Jam footage! You get the picture!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Definitely, The Show that Never Ends... Comment: Make sure you listen to the Dolby 5.1 soundtrack and the sound will be awesome.
All I can think is that the other reviewers who didn't like the sound must have had a 2.0 Stereo Soundtrack.
I saw ELP live several times before, this sounded as good as sitting in the front row... if not better...
I'd give it five stars, but I just wanted it to be much longer and have more selections, but worth the price of admission in my book...
Customer Rating:      Summary: Dissapointing Comment: The vocal sound on this concert DVD is terrible. Greg Lake sounds like he is singing into a tin can. What Happened? Very dissapointing.
