Love beach? Jebus, I daren't even take that out of tbe cupboard without feeling physically sick. Does it really have a track called "Taste of my love"? Would anybody really think to themselves, hmmm I fancy a bit of ELP, I know, lets put on that monster of prog....love beach...🤣🤣
It’s more like this - “I’ve just listened to their first 5 albums over and over, now onto Works and Love Beach and enjoy it for what it is “. Now, sure, it doesn’t stack up to the early albums, nowhere near, but it’s worth the occasional spin.

Yeah...but ive got thousands if cd's and will continue to add at a rate of three or four per week for the next thirty years....love beach will remain in my completionist set I am sure...

The fact that Greg Lake refused to take a production credit for Love Beach was a sure sign it was a doomed project. Emerson bemoaned the fact that he didn't have an orchestra to play with . I think Palmer enjoyed himself and plays really well. That is the main reason I can listen to it occasionally.

ATTWT has it's fair share of moments, certainly better to me than Tormato.

On Three-- Genesis was trying to prove something.
Banks had something nice to say about Hackett? Quite the opposite though as Genesis seemed to be holding onto the past while Yes was itching to explore the future.

I like 1 (maybe 2) songs off ATTWT.
And forcing myself to listen to, 'Follow you, Follow me' is like forcing my head into a woodchipper.



Same with me

Cool avatar. I remember that poster well as it hung in my friend's "party" room.
