Here's Keith's full performance of "America" with The World's Most Dangerous Band, presented in better video and audio quality than previously uploaded by others.
My source is in mono, but I edited in the stereo audio from BetaGems Lost Media's partial performance that's uploaded here: • Keith Emerson 9-18-86 ... .
The stereo kicks in at 2:00; the mono returns after the performance.

I watched this the night it aired. Keith was truly amazing. Best ever classical keyboardist and a top rate showmanship. The most dangerous band was very tight here.

Listened to Tarkus in college, a novice to album music, and the first side blew me away. It actually forever changed the way I appreciated music. Then circa 1973 or '74, went to see them in Champaign, Illinois, on the Brain Salad Surgery tour. The band was amazing, and Keith Emerson was other-worldly. A true savant. Just kept elevating his game, to throwing a little Beatles into "Hoedown" to playing the Hammond upside down/backwards. I feel fortunate to have seen them in concert. Just a class of their own back then.

The clerk said something like, "Oh... you're in luck! These people just canceled their tix as they can't attend this evening." It was 5th row center. Now a cherished rock & roll moment. Of course... they were amazing. 🎹 🥁 🎸 🎤

I saw them on the same tour in Indianapolis at Market Square Arena - hardly a perfect sonic venue. Nonetheless, all these years (and many concerts later) it was one of the most amazing sonic experiences I've ever had. One of, if not the best sound I've ever heard at a live concert. To this day I remember walking out feeling like the sound had picked me up and held me to a wall for the entire concert with its intensity and clarity. Not the most exciting stage or light show, but who cared - it was all about the music, and the music was incredible!

@youtuuba 2 жыл бұрын

Nothing surprising here actually. Paul S had a gig as bandleader and keyboard player on a major show, all all he had to do on this piece was to play some simple chord accompaniment to Keith's solo. Sure he was "spot on".....ANY proficient keyboardist would have been. And nothing Keith played here was particularly difficult or spectacular. TONS of keyboardists could do what he did here. But fans will insist that these two guys were something special, or spectacularly talented or skilled. Mostly, they were just famous.

But it was me who wanted to watch my favorite musician with my Dad who knew his music 🎶 ! When they were done my father was amazed! I always liked watching bands on T V with Dad . And he would give me his professional opinion and explain things to me technically! He knew Keith was the best ever . And I watched Greg one time with him . I told him he was the best singer before we watched . After he said he still thinks Elvis was the best . But Greg might be second ! And that was good enough for me ! Carl was the first guy we watched together actually. It was on Johnny Carson when Carl and his giant drum set had a drum off with The master Buddy Rich on his 3 piece drum set 1 symbol and a high hat ! My father said after wow ! 😮
