So when I was young and skinny, I went into what was probably the best hifi store in St. Louis, "HiFi Showroom" (sniff)
One of the salesmen, who knew me, said, "Listen to this" He played ELP Lucky Man.
It played on a very large set of wall mounted electrostatic loudspeakers. It was an amazing stereophonic experience. One of the best I ever had. Of course it has not been repeatable. It was played on a stereo LP. (too early for CDs by a long shot probably early early seventies.)
My question for our august assembly is, has anyone heard this in a similar fashion. None of the CD versions nor the you tube versions have the separation that I experienced that time. I was not smokin anything.
I was very impressed. Is there a mch version. or a remix that kicks ass. Other than this I was not a particular follower of ELP although I have seen some things on you tube that do tempt me and I even have been reminding myself to check for them when I visit Half Price Books or V Stock.
Any comments or pointers appreciated.
