Dear Mother Of God !

"WHY?.......Dear Mother Of God.....WHY?..........................."
Just Plain Terrible

"I wrote a previous review of this item but was told my description of how lousy this 3-cd set was just plain vulgar. And also incomprehensible (which it probably was--I was mostly drunk and completely angry at the time). So, I am trying again to help any potential buyers. Be warned: this cd is NOT an ELP cd in any sense of the word. Sure, it features recognizable snippets (mostly the same ones over and over and over again) and the occasional sampled Greg Lake vocal and some talking by Aaron Copland (I think), but in truth it's nothing more than a bunch of sampled clubtrippy mixes that lead nowhere and sent this listener to flinging the item in question out my car window as I crossed the Rio Grande River Gorge. The remixes are not overly annoying, but unless you like hipsterclub weirdness, don't bother with this. This cd sounds nothing like anything ELP has ever done and like nothing I ever want to hear again. Avoid this."
Not your typical ELP, but typical TECHNO

"Just as the title implies, these CDs are a "re-workings" of ELP material, and the year being 2002, that means Sampling and Electronica. The remixers took samples of ELP's Works and built new compositions out of it. The music certainly isn't ELP, but the _sounds_ are. It's very good mind you, from the concept side of things, but if you're coming at it from a techno persepective, it's very middle of the road. Ultimately, it comes across as nothing more than Jean Michel Jarre ... If you really want extreme, look out for KNOTS compilation, which tackles Gentle Giant samples into something truly bizarre."
