elp

[Rory McDonald]

For me it was Jethro Tull (still is), ELP, Pink Floyd, Rick Wakeman,
Beatles, Isao Tomita, Walter(wendy)Carlos, and all things classical.
My brother told me recently that he thought that in High School I was
maybe doing some drugs (I wasnt-never have) because I played JOURNEY TO THE
CENTER OF THE EARTH and my Tomita albums over and over. That and the black
light..
I saw ELP and Tull on tour together a few years ago.  I have tickets for
Tull on 
Sept 16th.

PS-those joysticks on the Quad receivers were kinda cool too.

Ah, now THAT brings back memories! When I was just a lad of 14 or so, I
wandered
into an electronics shop that also sold stereo gear. They had this nifty
quad
setup with tower speakers. Very nice. The LP playing was Brain Salad
Surgery. I
was drawn to that music like a moth to a light. Stood there and listened to
the
whole thing. I was changed forever. Went home and got rid of my Barry White
albums (man, thats hard to admit), and replaced them with ELP, Pink Floyd,
Walter Carlos, etc. 

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
