The following is the first version ever recorded of Lucky Man. It was found by Steven Wilson during the remix of the first ELP album. Originally Carl Palmer played drums on this track, but Wilson removed them so as to have only the guitar and vocals made by Lake

Yes - all of a sudden Moog synthesizers weren't just noisemakers and note how the timbre is *brazenly* synthetic - no thought whatsoever toward imitating any existing instrument. I'm lukewarm on the song but hearing those oscillators growling before the solo really starts always raises the hairs on the back of my neck.

Greg's early death is sad, however, what would have been Really sad is if I had lived in an era when Greg wasn't on this planet. I saw ELP seven times during their height and I have never found a more pure voice, not Pop or Rock or even loud, Greg was a singer and a musician. I hope he realises that he made the world a better place while he was here. Thank you, Greg.

Greg took his time telling that story and I enjoyed every minute of it, never looking at the footnotes to see what he was talking about until the end. And to think that Greg made up Lucky Man when he was 12 years old. Just amazing. I'd say more about Greg but this video is about Keith. I can imagine Keith just listening to the tracks and throwing down a little something. And then he said "I was only playing around, I could do a much better one". Well folks, that is what any old musical genius would say. That one-off Moog solo is what separates him from almost everybody else on the entire planet. Keith is my keyboard hero of all time, I just love that guy.

I swear, people seem to think that if a band or a singer or an actor or whatever aren’t in the news several times a year, they somehow aren’t getting “credit” for their accomplishments, and it’s just silly. ELP is getting credit, right here! The men who walked on the friggin MOON don’t get enough credit (read, “attention”) either, and what they did is monumentally the greater achievement, in comparison to the reputation of a rock band!

There was this guy putting a guitar on a stand and I noticed the body had the artwork of the first King Crimson album on it. I said to the guy that's a nice guitar and I looked at him again and realised it was Greg Lake. He was selling it. I left him to get on with what he was doing although I wish I'd said a few more words.

My brother (RIP) had this album back in 1974 so I listened to it, it was okay but when I played the last track (Lucky Man) and then heard the moog at the end my brain was blown away after that I was a fan of those three guy's and went on to buy their other albums, truly talented musicians.

Great story! Lucky Man had me mesmerised when it came out. My sister bought the album and her and my brother and I would sit in her room listening with intent just waiting for that Moog to start it's magic. We were in awe!

I finally got to see ELP in 1986 but by then it was Emerson, Lake & Powell'. 4th row on the floor and right in front of Keith. It was freaking INCREDIBLE. (I'd seen Carl with Asia in 1982 so I can truthfully say I've seen Emerson, Lake & Palmer.) I'll never forget the day we lost Keith in March of 2016. My house in Covington, LA had 8" of water in it after a massive flood that day - my house was 30" off the ground - the highest water in that area since the Great Mississippi River Flood of 1927. Later that year Greg joined Keith and Cozy in Valhalla. Sh!t... I have a Greg Lake live CD from King Biscuit... Gary Moore on guitar. It's the most incredible version of 'Fanfare For The Common Man' I've ever heard. RIP Greg, Keith and Cozy.

I used to have a stereo with an NZ-made Fountain amp, 10W per channel. Instead of a fuse in the output, it had a thermal cut-out. That Lucky Man synth bit would blow the thermal cut-out every time.
