The Story Behind: Emerson Lake and Palmer - Tarkus, Ep 126

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Emerson Lake and Palmer met while touring individually in other successful groups, then formed prog rock's first supergroup. Tarkus is a concept album for a future that has yet to manifest. The fellows welcome a special guest and discuss virtuosity, over the top drum kits, and the history of progressive music.Check out Dave's podcast Discograffiti now:https://open.spotify.com/show/3gtZQOiXaLA72ez7gzFvNs?si=a50a0fd3f3c440e2Email us your complaints (or questions / comments) at [email protected] to our episode companion playlist (compilation of the songs we referenced on this episode) here:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7yq1xWnB00vCBfqDEPwoIv?si=629226886dfe43ceListen to Tarkus here:https://open.spotify.com/album/3OtFsLLaUZWN6AyeBIzNCj?si=eSjGEdpkROmsMAoX424t-QIntro music: When the Walls Fell by The Beverly CrushersOutro music: After the Afterlife by MEGAFollow our Spotify Playlist of music produced directly by us.
