Thanks.

I'm going to have to watch the rest on catch up as I'm meeting a mate up the pub.

Although I will admit the vocalists are not doing it for me. Including Guy Garvey.

I suppose it is no surprise that the music of ELP does so well performed like this, given the classical influence there in the first place. Am now off to listen to the original In the Court of the Crimson King to remember how it is supposed to be sung. Greg Lake was a wonderful performer and Guy Garvey really isn't up to it!

The lady singer in green the other night absolutely murdered "Nights in white satin"

Orchestra were sublime though.

Great Gig in the Sky!
Very well done.

Watching it but Peter Hammill wasnt great.

In general the vocalists re the worst bit. You and I wasn’t great.

Vanessa Haynes was excellent on Floyd's GGITS.

She definitely was, by the sound of it!

[littleredrooster]

Overall - fantastic. Loved almost all of it. Carl Palmer was outstanding, I thought.
