EMERSON LAKE AND PALMER


EMERSON LAKE AND PALMER
BRAIN SALAD SURGERY (1973)
35TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION
224-320 KBPS

With orchestral swells and symphonic arrangements, Emerson Lake & Palmer put the Prague in '70s progressive rock. There was something of that dark, European artistry in their compositions that always made their music more grandiose than their stateside counterparts. Brain Salad Surgery was a conductor's wet dream. Works like the "Impression" study in four movements were epic to the nth degree. Influenced by Mussorgsky and Stravinsky, ELP wreaked havoc with the conventions of what rock and classical music could and could not be. In typical fashion, the trio included one highly accessible cut, in this case the haunting "Still... You Turn Me On." The CD also contains the enigmatic favorite, "Karn Evil 9."
The version I'm giving you here is the 2008 35th Anniversary Deluxe Edition. In addition to the original album, you have quite a few things to explore. Let it be noted that acquirind this edition is worth just for the 5.1 mix that is not, obviously, included here.
