Carl looks tired 😪 thank you John for bringing a true legend. ❤️

[@vansongs]

Seen ELP in Vancouver for the Brain Salad Surgery tour. Sound was off the charts different than anything else i'd heard at that time, the quality was audiophile level in the Pacific Colosseum (wtf?) . Plus the Amazing Drum Stage Carl was on and, well to say the least it was a very memorable experience.

[@jonesy2111]

Brain Salad Surgery is a musical masterpiece and most of the rest of their work is fantastic as well.... Carl Palmer is an amazing and innovative force on the drums. Hats off to him and the other prog legends. "Rod Stewart is a singer... I mean a knob head" - Glyn Johns famous music producer/engineer

[@thatsentertainment6060]

Brain Salad is the ultimate Prog Album. It is my Bible!

[@catsofsherman1316]

I was introduced to Carl through Asia. There was a documentary about Asia on MTV that came out around the same time as that big Asia in Asia concert. That was my first education on the whole prog scene and I got into several of those bands especially Tull. Carl was a bit cranky in this interview, but he was a good sport and got through it. Good to see him still playing and working at his craft. He's a legend for sure.

[@Saffy-yr8vo]

Thanks to Carl for his amazing work especially in ELP. Such a hard worker. Huge talent. Thanks Carl and thoughts with Keith and Greg.

[@jesserussell7242]

Carl Palmer is still one of the greatest drummers ever and I love Emerson Lake and Palmer I’m a huge fan and I love Asia king crimson is great and so is a yes and Keith Emerson was such a magnificent keyboard player and Greg like one of the greatest ever.

[@jesserussell7242]

I love Carl Palmer’s amazing drum solo on rondo alla Turca the live from Zerorez in Switzerland that version is still one of the greatest songs ever written.

[@jesserussell7242]

Carl Palmer is still one of the greatest drummers ever and I love Emerson Lake and Palmer I’m a huge fan and I love Asia king crimson is great and so is a yes and Keith Emerson was such a magnificent keyboard player and Greg like one of the greatest ever. Carl Palmer will still be one of the greatest ever they’ll never be another group like Emerson Lake and Palmer or Asia.

[@mariaday712]

I love these full interviews. Very informative. Thanks John. Stay safe and take care.

[@Chuckcb]

I grew up in the 1970s I was never to big on the whole prog rock thing, I was more into the heavy guitar stuff, zeppelin, stones, moterhead, deep purple, black sabbath, put this group was the exception, I saw them in the 1970s in Richfield ohio great show Carl's drumming was insane,

[@damnyankeefl]

going to see him soon can't wait..

[@JamZorro]

Thank You... Great interview

[@drmorqWarrenProject]

Carl, I was so fortunate to see you guys play in Wichita, Kansas in the fall of 1974... As I recall it was the end of the 'Welcome Back' tour yet you guys put on one hell of a show. It was my first real rock concert and I was so intimidated, just being there. I was a piano player of a sort and watching Keith drove me crazy. It showed me that I could never be 'that'... but I could be the best me I could be and so I used my love for music and my schooling in the percussion sections of all my school bands and orchestras... I started on the snare drum in the second grade and the school band played a show in Bishops Hall . We only had probably 15 people in the band and we only played clasical pieces and most of the time I was on triangle.. And at the end the teacher/conductor pointed me out for keeping the band on time.. I was hooked..

[@damirhlobik6488]

THE drummer, the best of the bests Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich can be proud of their legacy

[@randyherbrechtsmeier4796]

I've Seen ELP Three Times. Front Riw Each Time. Amazing Quadrophonic!

[@LoyalOpposition]

Excellent interview, as usual. More musicians need to interview these legends before they stop doing them. And allowing them to speak is another skill.

[@rickshearer]

Great questions for a great drummer!

[@lylesmith3506]

I was 5 when Lucky man came out. My older brother came home with the debut album. I had to be a drummer because of Carl.

[@Travel_n_TourFan]

TY TYYY TYSMUCH for choosing my question for CP-I feel like the coolest fanboy on Earth tonight🌍TERRIFIC INTERVIEW👊😎

[@freddielamour1392]

Great interview, I could've listened for hours... I would've loved to have heard a question about 3, to the Power of 3. I've never been informed why it happened, and why Greg was not involved. All do respect to Robert.

[@charlesrochfort1228]

Yes that got overlooked. Also Carl's band PM just before the conception of Asia.

[@IDHairCut8]

If you ever get a chance to interview Carl again, can you please get his take on the 3 project with Keith and Robert Berry and what caused that to start and ultimately end

[@ejb5659]

I like this interviewer- he asks Q's I'd go for.

[@whistlerwind7422]

He can deny it to his dying day, but ELP was a prog band by any definition of the term.

[@manticorepl859]

Carl, is there any chance that we will hear or see some unpublished ELP concerts from the old days? Has something been preserved?

[@chrisw9096]

Really funny when he says ELP weren't prog and then describes the band, using all of the elements of prog... 😄

[@trubadorphotography2541]

I was hoping that you’d broach the subject of the Rock & Roll “Hall of Fame”. Would’ve been reeeeeally interesting to hear his take on that.

[@kc0lif]

great drummer

[@damnyankeefl]

I saw ASIA in 2012 four original members it was so good

[@matthewpaluch777]

😎👍💗🇬🇧🥁🔥🎼💣🔊)) GO CARL GO!!!

[@matthewpaluch777]

😎👍💗🇺🇸🇸🇪🎸💣🔥🎼🔊 YNGWIE!!! Nice shoutout Carl!

[@damnyankeefl]

ELP defied categorization but the music business has to label bands

[@beatvampire]

Carls blood pressure looks off the richter if the colour of his scone is anything to go by

[@tamsondarland8951]

💓👍

[@rhamlyn100]

Grumpy old Carl.

[@mikewest1542]

Yeah , the first question he seems really off. I met an associate of Uriah Heep and he said he’s a grumpy old bastard , he really does seem it and he also mentioned Greg was a complete gentleman.

[@1990smitch]

Don't think that's an interesting enough question, hmmm🤔

[@chrisw9096]

Yes, that was a strange moment.

[@JamZorro]

May I at least apologize?... (I really don't even know what I've done) But sometimes my mouth is bigger than my brain... (I have to work on that)... Peace / Truce (maybe?)... Thank you for your consideration

[@aleocampos9547]

My favourite Carl Palmer goes through 1970-77, the three first Asia records until halfway the 90s. Fair to recognise he was a pioneer of percussion, a genius just at only 20-something; his playing was amazing, his solos terrific, he was unmatched. But from halfway the 90s approx, IMHO, I found him boring and repetitive, like he lost the power and creativity he used to have. When was the last time he did anything new??? I guess it was Gravitas, the last Asia with John Wetton. Then he has been repetitive over the years. And not because he is a drummer - Neil Peart wrote all the lyrics for Rush, Cozy Powell had solo albums, as well as Queen's Roger Taylor, who also was a songwriter and singer, same Ringo Starr, who, at almost 84, he keeps doing new things... No offense, but to me from the poweful energetic, creative drummer he was in the 70s, early 80s, he became the average drummer. Also, I never liked his negative remarks towards Keith and Greg after High Voltage; it's OK if he wanted to leave to pursue other projects (playing ELP music with his trio and with no keyboards...), but not the way he did it. Btw, I would ask Carl - if it was fine to get Cozy Powell filling in for you in 1986 with Keith and Greg, why did you said everywhere, back in 2014, that it was "petty" to bring him in instead of waiting for you?? As far as I am concerned, you were recording Astra, with Asia, but there was a tour ahead which was cancelled by the label due to the poor sales of the album... Sorry, he is a legend, it's OK having him around playing, but, no, today Carl Palmer is not my cup of tea. I definetly prefer to listen to him on his better days
