Keith Emerson - Best Revenge

Review by Dan Havey

Best Revenge is a solo album by Keith Emerson, the renowned keyboardist and composer of progressive rock band Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Released in 1980, the album showcases Emerson's virtuosity and versatility as a musician, as well as his penchant for experimentation and innovation.

The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, ranging from classical pieces by Bach and Tchaikovsky to rock songs by The Doors and The Nice. Emerson's keyboard skills are on full display, with his signature use of synthesizers, organs, and pianos creating a rich and complex sound.

Highlights of the album include the epic "Murderock," which features Emerson's intricate keyboard work and dynamic shifts in tempo and mood, and the haunting "Creole Dance," a tribute to New Orleans jazz. Other standout tracks include the funky "Gametime," the bombastic "Best Revenge," and the dreamy "Lay Down Your Guns."

Loved both of these artists for years but never in my wildest dreams would i have imagined them working together. This is such an historical 80's gem!

Hello everyone. I miss these guys. The tragedy of suicide took both of them. I recorded and mixed this and the whole score for the movie back then. Recording Brad was one of the highlights of my time at The Village Recorder in LA.

A great song! I bought this on Cd decades ago. There is something beautifully and sadly English about it. The chord changes at certain junctures are haunting and otherworldly, a forgotten time and landscape. The song might seem a bit commercial to some, but to me it reflects a melancholy of Nordic European man.

The sad part of this amazing collaboration is they both took their own lives. :(
