Winwood was a better vocalist than almost anybody. But Brent was right up there near the end. The "I will take you home" on the upstate NY shows in 1990 is really great stuff. TOo bad you missed out on P Floyd. No doubt it was a rite of passage for a lot of us. A little cannabis listeneing to Us and Them or Careful with That Ax Eugene, or Astronomy Domine or (and I really reveal my dim dark past) Several Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict was the ultimate head experience in my young life. And when The Wall came out in 79, well... that was the ultimate.... But today as I look back on it, there was not ever an experience in my life that even held a candle to seeing my beloved GD in concert. I was a convert to the dead by 1982, and when I heard Candyman, Scarlett/Fire, FOTD, and Throwing Stones that year, I entered a phase of my music life that hasn't ended yet. ELP was a great show band, way better that the studio stuff. Second time I saw them, I saw some friends there who gave me some chocolate chip cookies. I was hungry and the girl was obviously very proud of her cookies, so I ate about 10 of them. Several hours later I realized what she had put in them......... I still have the ELP drumhead that Carl Palmer threw out in to the audience that night.
