Emerson, Lake & Palmer's most successful and well-realized album
(after their first), and their most ambitious as a group, as well
as their loudest, Brain Salad Surgery is also their most
electronic sounding one. The main focus, thanks to the three-part
"Karn Evil 9," is sci-fi rock, approached with a volume and
vengeance that stretched the art rock audience's tolerance to its
outer limit, but also managed to appeal to the metal audience in
ways that little of Trilogy did. Indeed, "Karn Evil 9" is the
piece and the place where Keith Emerson and his keyboards finally
matched in both music and flamboyance the larger-than-life guitar
sound of Jimi Hendrix. Pete Sinfield's lyrics, while not up to his
best King Crimson-era standard, were better than anything the
group had to work with previously, and Greg Lake pulled out all
the stops on his heaviest singing voice in handling them, coming
off a bit like Peter Gabriel in the process. The songs (except for
the throwaway "Benny the Bouncer") are also among their best work
-- the group's arrangement of Sir Charles Hubert Parry's setting
of William Blake's "Jerusalem" manages to be reverent yet rocking,
while Emerson's adaptation of Alberto Ginastera's music in
"Tocatta" outstrips even "The Barbarian" and "Knife Edge" from the
first album as a distinctive and rewarding reinterpretation of a
piece of serious music. Lake's "Still...You Turn Me On" is his
last great ballad with the group, possessing a melody and
arrangement sufficiently pretty to forgive the presence of the
rhyming triplet "everyday a little sadder/a little madder/someone
get me a ladder."
