| ... Ahhh.... "Man-Music" (even if I was only 15 or 16) still rings true. Though listening to the lyrics now...? It's pretty trite stuff with a rich baroque feel. Like the phony Rolls-Royce-looking front-ends they used to stick on Beetles... |
| This song is good for the ears... |

| Yes, after 28 years, my wife, still, turns me on!! |
| Great song from a great album, well suited to chemically enhanced listening. Also the coolest cover art of all time. |
| Yea, we were going from 8 → 10. Many hazy fond memories. |
| love this song |

| Circa 1975. High School. ELP cranked on the headphones while studying. Yeah.... |
| Ya know, the early Seventies had some great music. |

First part of set was a bit iffy then kicked up a notch and they were great Sad but during the 70s I wanted to look like Greg Lake - now in 2010 Greg Lake looks like me :-( Heh. I wanted to look like Palmer. Came pretty close until I started to enjoy food a bit too much. |

| Is it important to have been stoned the first time you heard this? That's the only way I can figure out its apparent appeal. |

One of those disc you pull out every once in and a while and bask in the greatness and chemistry these 3 had. If you have the capability to play DVD Audio disc's try and find this one, you won't be disappointed! I got it and you are correct, sir! I don't know why High Rez audio didn't catch on. I've recently gotten the two Tom Petty releases, Mojo and Damn the Torpedoes in Blu-Ray with the high resolution audio in surround and stereo. You even get to download the CD tracks in .wav or mp3! |
