      It is strange how nowdays things are done careless and with a great lack of professionalism. As soon as I started listening to “I Believe In Father Christmas” (one of a more iconic songs of this album) beautifully sung by Greg Lake, I’ve noticed something weird. I then compared it with my 1st UK press and also the 1st Portuguese, and found out that the lead vocals is not there is this reissue. This song is double-tracked by Greg Lake. So what we get in this resmaster (I have no clue wich mix was used) is the vocal track with lots of reverb that appears of the left channel. On the originals we get the lead vocals (clean and suberb) on the front and a hint of the double track with reverb on the left channel. If you want to hear this song with all is splendour search for a first press or and early reissue and avoid this one.

        Bad sound quality compared to my original 1977 UK pressing.

          This pressing sounds several times better than the modern reissues of this record. This one has much more air and defined instruments.

            Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Works 2 ... Let me try to think for a moment... when The Nice broke up in 1969 or 1970... ELP should of in 1974... The long 3 year lay off it's like this is the same band that made those records from 1970-1973. Yes's Tormato made this look like a masterpiece... It is actually ... REMIX GOD DAMNIT STEPHEN HOWE.

                  "When the Apple Blossoms Bloom In The Windmills Of Your Mind I'll Be Your Valentine", "Tiger in a Spotlight" and "Brain Salad Surgery" were all recorded during the 1973 sessions for the album "Brain Salad Surgery" but were rejected when push came to shove. "Brain Salad Surgery" was subsequently used on the flexi-disc given free with NME to promote the "BSS" album and later appeared on the expanded CD version of the album.
                  Emerson's cover of "Honky Tonk Train Blues" had been released as a single in 1976, rising to #21 in the UK charts whilst the version of "I Believe In Father Christmas" on here is not the same as the single - it lacks the symphonic backing of the latter. Still nice though...

                      This Brazilian release has a unique inner sleeve, with a big photo of the band on one side and three photos, one of each member, on the other side.
