What moments in 70's prog made even us prog obsessives think "JESUS CHRIST WHAT A t**t"!!!
For me it's Keith Emersons Piano Concerto No.1 a great piece of music but giving E,L and P a side of the album Greg Lake does his songs Carl Palmer does some classical covers and other drum songs...i know why doesn't Keith emerson write his own Concerto for Orchestra.
Edit: this thread has been misinterpreted by some people, it isn't about prog as a genre being pretentious or suggesting that is a bad thing, it is about the moments in prog where it got out of hand and it was just pure self indulgence, like ELP's Works i could never relate too this album much,
the supporting live CD - In Concert however i did enjoy
