EL&P- The Old Castle + Blues Variations (Practice)

[@georgethompson453]

Been listening to this piece of music for over 50 years. Still makes the hairs on the back of my neck, the ones left, stand up

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Yes, me too. I love it, the music and also that hammond sound.. so much energy! (in the original, not in my keyboard even if I think is quite close to the original). Thanks for your comment.

[@fabiobiagioni]

Fantastico!!!

[@robertcooper1952]

Just fabulous! There will never be another ELP.

[@edljnehan2811]

Absolutely my favorite piece by Keith Emerson.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Yes! It has taken quite a few listening but then I started to appreciate some phrases. I love it!

[@robertpetraglia8748]

I love when I come across the players who can decipher AND physically perform virtuoso masters who themselves popped in from another dimension entirely. SO impressive! Like, last month I discovered this young dude Matteo Mancuso, who can dissect and play Allan Holdsworth. Anyway, thank you for your time and efforts!!

[@tommyd1871]

It's amazing how much better he was than anybody else. Rick Wakeman and Jon Lord would tell you Keith was the GOAT!!!

[@MrKersey]

Rick Wakeman said that the best keyboardist in the world would have his (Rick's) right hand, Keith's left hand and the soul of Jon Lord.

[@lenhumbird]

Wow, that was really impressive! It sounds just like the record! I'm really happy I found this yt recording.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thanks I appreciate your comment.

[@richardbagley5096]

Brilliant job Bravo!

[@charliekane135]

Excellent 👏👍

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

I completely agree with what you say! I wish I could own a B3 and a modular moog... But my back would refuse to bring around those beasts and I cannot afford a roadie.

[@rhyshughes3845]

Nailed it! 👍

[@mattwaters6987]

Awesome!

[@ABrionesAutor]

Great rendition

[@jameswaugaman8052]

I think I loved this more than the original! Beautifully done!!

[@attiliobastosguarnieri5416]

Um dos melhores solos que já vi Keith Emerson fazer. Perfeito !! ! !!

[@kenfritz1140]

Absolutely fantastic. Loved every second of it!

[@javiermasegosa5888]

Enhorabuena otra vez. Soberbio el cover de otro de los grandes momentos musicales e instrumentales del gran Keith Emerson. Estás hecho un "maquina"

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

¡Muchas gracias! :)

[@robertotroiani1200]

Perfect, great performance.. 👌

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Grazie!

[@dougie6897]

Splendid video!! Does the Korg prologue 16 have a glide divergence? I often wondered if Keith’ s modular had each oscillator gliding at slightly different rates between notes ..creating that fantastic unique solo sound.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Hello dougie6897. I can't say. It seems to me that has not (the 2 oscillators are controlled by one glide circuit)... but maybe I'm wrong or I can't catch it.

[@dougie6897]

@@everyonelovespotatoes7242 The lead sound you’ve programmed is so so authentic… is the Prologue in unison mode? It sounds far thicker and richer than only 2 oscillators being used

[@hemlo7494]

Looks like practice made perfect.

[@damirhlobik6488]

Nice job, man

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thanks!

[@mjstcdnce5]

Beautifully done. I’ve been procrastinating learning Pictures primarily because of that section. But since you’ve proven it can be done, i guess maybe that’ll be this years project. It was a joy listening to you play. Thanks. 🔪🎹

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thank you very much! I appreciate your comment!

[@stuartraeburn3286]

I picture in my head that this is Keith playing

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Wow - nailed it! 😀

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thanks! 👌

[@juancarlosarias6550]

You nailed it! Congrats.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thanks!

[@georgecarlin5047]

Nice Job! Someday I've got to learn this while my hands are still young enough to pull it off...

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

It is worth the effort! :)

[@frphxkaboom3008]

I love watching you play, then I close my eyes and imagine it's Keith.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thank you, very kind of you!!

[@baronallison941]

Thank you, the DVD of the concert goes into the stupid comic book graphics, at least now I know kind of what it looked like when you could see what Emerson was doing.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Those effects were all the rage in the 1970s :)

[@baronallison941]

[@TheLastOilMan]

I love this

[@oxymoramuse]

Really great job! You really nailed the sounds as well as the playing. One question - what's your right hand organ registration? And 008800000 showing on the panel is... for the left hand comping or just where they were left vs the Nord patch? Thanks!

[@peterlima7180]

Very well Done, This is not an easy piece to play!!!

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Yes you are right! It changes continuously... is a kind of a "tricky" piece.

[@Mauro2011966]

Bravissimo!!

[@billrobson5078]

Great job.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thank you!

[@richardsweeney7431]

very accurate

[@charliekane135]

Wish someone would do a tutorial on the Hammond part. If you play at 0.5 speed it distorts 😞

[@peterlima7180]

Hi, What Synth are you using above the Nord? Almost dead on sound... I am practising this piece currently. once again Great job!

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thanks! The sinth is a Korg Prologue 16

[@turboguy86]

I think it’s the Moog shark tooth wave. Don’t see it on many synths

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Thanks! The synth is a Korg Prologue 16. Actually quite easy to program Keith sounds of the 70' on this instrument.

[@HVYMETL]

bravo!

[@andrewtadeo5644]

Class

[@michaelrocker9000]

It sounds good but nothing beats the sound of Keith's Monster Moog and a real Hammond B or C 3 organ going through a Leslie. I got to see and hear it live on a number of occasions in the 1970's. I am not a big fan of emulators.

[@mikewest1542]

This is Danny Bakers favourite ELP piece ! Don’t tell Markel!

[@Crezelltree4261]

Not bad.Who is this playing?

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

I'm an old fan of EL&P... from Italy

[@mikewest1542]

Keith Emerson

[@davidbentley8634]

You missed a bit towards the end

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Did I?

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Ooooh! OK... yes you're right! ;)

[@vincederban5969]

Roll that Leslie

[@turboguy86]

hard to play this lead!

[@margix1172]

Who is able to play ELP have BALLS...that's a fact.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Wow!!! Thanks

De pelos!!!!

[@ytnsanw]

Suoni molto precisi, buona tecnica e una buona 'sensazione'. Ti sei perso una sezione alla fine di 'Blues', ma non importa. Da un vecchio inglese che è cresciuto su ELP e adorava KE.

[@everyonelovespotatoes7242]

Si, la seconda parte tirata la salto... in pratica è quello che suoniamo fuori. Io pure sono cresciuta a EL&P... e sono pure mezzo inglese! :))
