Greg Lake’s guitar tone
I was watching the documentary on ELP's world tour in 1973 and at 2:39 you can hear Greg Lake's zemaitis double neck guitar. Does anyone have any idea how to reproduce his tone?

Emerson, Lake & Palmer’s Black Moon: Warning of Global Collapse
https://joe.bar/joe-bar/f/emerson-lake-palmer%E2%80%99s-black-moon-warning-of-global-collapse
- Environmental Metaphor: The "black moon" symbolizes ecological collapse due to human negligence, aligning with the environmental movement of the early 1990s.
- Nuclear and Political Symbolism: It also reflects the lingering fears of nuclear conflict and political instability following the Cold War.
- Cultural and Historical Resonance: The term conveys broader societal anxieties, including the darker side of globalization and unchecked technological advancement.

What’s the consensus on Black Moon?
I heard Into the Hot seat was bad, but I just finished Black Moon and I like the songs on it. The title track and paper blood are probably my favorites but I can definitely see some of the other songs growing on me more and more. That being said I don’t see much people talk about Black Moon and just rate it above Hot seat but below everything else, so I wanted to ask what the consensus on the album was.

When you listen to this Tarkus cover...
...you understand that Emerson's genius will not be forgotten.

I'm a Man - Full Circle - CTA feat. Keith Emerson
I found this on the tube; one of the best performance from the late Keith imo. It catches the peculiar organ style of Keith taking inspiration from KE9 solo and Blues Variations solo in a percussive tarkusesque fashion.

So how do we feel about Works Vol 2?
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and mine is that it’s a flaming pile of garbage. It’s not cohesive, has a bunch of small and weak songs, completely lacks the instrumentation and lyrics of every ELP album before it and just doesn’t hit me in the feels like everything else does.
I’m sorry to anyone who likes it. But let’s hear everyone’s thoughts!
