Most people had no idea what hit them, but they liked it a lot. I used that as a secret trivia question and still do sometimes. The internet made it easy to find any answer, but it did not help with asking the right questions. In this case &#8216;What three well known groups did Emerson, Lake &amp; Palmer come from? I&#8217;m trying to point out that most people wouldn&#8217;t think about that, but I realize that the majority of them wouldn&#8217;t really give a shit. Anyway since I brought it up here are the previous affiliations: Emerson &#8211; The Nice \/ Lake &#8211; King Crimson \/ Palmer &#8211; Atomic Rooster. I could go on some more <!--more-->but let me just get to the bloody point.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">ELP&#8217;s first eponymous album was amazing, different, exciting, blah, blah, blah. The last song <em>Lucky Man<\/em> actually hit the top 100 and so on. I just googled it and was reminded that Greg Lake had written that when he was 12 years old. Not a bad song but enough of that. I just wanted to get to where I say that Eddy Offord, the engineer on that album did an amazing job on the last 40-45 seconds of that song. He actually used the\u00a0stereo effect as an instrument, and very effectively at that. I do not know if anyone ever did that before, but I&#8217;d like to think that Jeff Calver heard this track and was inspired by it in his masterpiece of stereo engineering.
