Song 264 (Emerson, Lake & Palmer--"Lucky Man")



This is probably one of the best-known songs by Emerson, Lake & Palmer, however the song was originally written before the band's inception and was used to fill up space on the record.
From what I understand not much care was taken with this song; some of the studio recording was done in one take and was completely improvised. They are probably the best band that utilizes the synthesizer, they do not over use it, but rather blend it with the acoustic sounds.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
