Pictures At An Exhibition
Emerson, Lake & Palmer

A different kind of album, and I must say I really enjoyed it. From what I have read this is an adaptation of a classical music piece but I did not know this piece and I felt it still sounded like it's own thing. I can see people feel a bit iffy some really like it some don't like that it isn't their piece but I don't mind that. I can especially imagine the people who knew what they were in for seeing this in concert really enjoying it. I listened to it on my walk to and back from Tesco's and it ended right as I walked back up to the front door. Coincidence or did I just become one with the music? Just kidding I don't believe in that but it did make me extremely happy waltzing up to the door to the end of Nut Rocker, which I did know but I don't know why or if it is even their song I am assuming not but it was a great encore and ending. I am a bit stuck on what rating to give it, I was not keeping up with which songs were where as it was obviously one big experience but I can't tell if I am just not seeing the faults. I do wish he had sung more he had quite a fitting voice and it really made for some good moments. I am going to give it a 3, I think the fact it is live but recorded and put out as if it was it's own album is just a thing I haven't seen much of and was a great find. I can't tell if I would be wanting to listen again which is why I can't give it a 4 but maybe I will listen to some more of their work and see if it compares. All being said it was a pretty perfect listen for my walk. I would say there are no stand out songs but actually I noticed some points I was actually checking what was on because I was really enjoying it so I will list those songs even if it was a snippet. Blues Variation The Curse of Baba Yaga (Maybe if I remember right) The Great Gates of Kiev
