That Love Beach cover is spectacular!  I haven't listened to Live at the Aragon yet but I watched the live DVD it comes with which I thought was great.  If you like Crack the Skye era, which I do (more proggy), Mastodon, it's pretty money.  If you like older Mastodon, it might leave you wanting a little bit.  I actually bought it as a gift for my girlfriend who is a big fan of them.  It was great spending a night being schooled on the everything Mastodon by her.

Also brought back bad memories of my last show at the Aragon, Widespread around 2000, where I got a massive migraine and spent the second half of the show hanging over a toilet.

I will try that out, Crack the Skye is pretty much what I know the best just haven't obtained Blood Mountain or earlier stuff. I've been trying to get into metal but I find myself being very particular around it. Lovin the new Witch Mountain and the Sword (thanks to this board). But some of the black metal NPR has been pushing in recent weeks Allogoch, Kraillice is not for me.

As for ELP just picked up this gem on vinyl last week

The endless enigma part 1 is organ rock at its best!

Nice!  I love that we both picked up some ELP in the past week.  I actually love Agalloch, one of the bands I've been listening to a lot lately.  I guess I should check out some Witch Mountain.  I'm not familiar at all.

If I ever see Love Beach at the record store, I'm gonna buy it just so I can burn that bad bitch. I love ELP, but goddamn, they went from moments of brilliance to utter cheese within seconds: From the Beginning --> The Sheriff.

Check out the price for my copy of Trilogy, purchased a few years ago:

Awesome find Crispy, mine was $2.99 which is generally the cheapest you'll find for decent music at my local In Your ear Records

Seriously though, how awesome is From the Beginning? I don't understand how Lucky Man became their most popular....I can forgive the Sheriff bc I kinda enjoy it, I think I like Trilogy over Brain Salad Surgery but I should give that another listen soon....You with me on Endless Enigma? I rock out pretty dangerously in my sube to that track. If you saw me from outside my car you may think I was listening to Dio or something.

I guess demand for ELP records wasn't as high in 1990 as it is these days.  ;)

I'm totally with you on the Endless Enigma -- From the Beginning is definitely one of my favorites, but I really love ELP's instrumental/extended freakout tunes as well as their takes on works by composers like Mussorgsky, Bartok, Copeland, et al.

As for the cheese, The Sheriff isn't a bad tune, but stuff like Benny the Bouncer and Jeremy Bender are pretty cringe-worthy. I do love Brain Salad Surgery, but Karn Evil 9 seems to fall into this category too.
