[@scotthunt2479]

How many of you remember listening to this with headphones on, and hearing the channels switch back and forth during the Moog synthesizer lead - and then uttering to yourself "Oh, man, far out." Life seemed so simple back then.

[@allenvaughan1]

Count me in on that! I was only 10, but it blew my mind. Freaking awesome!!!

The first time the Moog Synthesizer was heard on a rock song.

[@kevincleary627]

That's what that's called!

[@frankrenna2761]

I first heard this song in my father’s car as a senior in high school. I can still feel all the hair on my arms and the back of my neck standing up when I heard the moog synthesizer at the end. I turned to my dad and told him that that sound from the synthesizer was the future of music! He turned to me and said “nothing is better than jazz”! I have been an ELP fan ever since. RIP Keith Emerson and Greg Lake ❤.

[@reb1050]

This song brings back so many memories. I remember when it came out back in the 70's not long before I joined the Marines. But it was later that a more meaningful memory is created. In 1979, I was on a date with a young woman and we went back to her place. She asked me what music I wanted to listen to and as I looked through her extensive collections, I saw "Welcome Back My Friends to the Show That Never Ends". Although the album had been out for 5 yrs., I had never listened to it before. Two songs stood out above all the rest. Lucky Man and Still, You Turn Me On. I'll never forget that night and we got married the following year. Our 44th. anniversary is in 12 days. May 10.

[@patchadams4me]

The first version of this song was originally written by Greg Lake when he was 12. The first song he ever wrote.

[@Danleesixoneonetwofive]

Genius

[@jeffmccrea9347]

What was Greg Lake thinking when he wrote this song? "HE HAD WHITE HORSES...AND LADIES BY THE SCORE." "ALL DRESSED IN SATIN...AND WAITING BY THE DOOR." Being a lucky man, the reason for having scores of ladies dressed in satin and waiting by his door is both obvious and perfectly understandable. In light of the fact that we all know what those ladies were expecting to have done to them, by him, once they gained entry past the door, what has had me baffled for the last 54 years is, what was he also going to do with scores of white horses, also dressed in satin and also waiting by the door? Beautiful song, strange mind fuck imagery. HMMmm. Of Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer, Carl Palmer is the only one left alive so time is running out to get this Earth stopping question answered. Please help!!!

[@Chris-gs5zz]

Time is running out for many things. It's a force that stops for nothing and no one....not even god itself.

[@jeffmccrea9347]

@@Picklesnot-co3k "He had White Horses And Ladies By The Score." All Dressed In Satin And Waiting By The Door." My question to you is, who the hell dresses scores of white horses in satin and why were they waiting by the door with scores of ladies also dressed in satin??? We can assume what his plans were with the ladies but what was he going to do with all those satin draped horses? Sounds pretty kinky to me.
