AMERICA

(Stephen Sondheim -Leonard Bernstein)

This is the instrumental version that Keith Emerson arranged initially for the
Nice and later (like Rondo),played with Emerson, Lake and Palmer. It contains
quotations from Dvorak's New World Symphony and like the original is in an odd
triplet rhythm on the 1st 2 beats, (1&&, 2&&, 3&,4,) Not all of the Bernstein song
is used, but I have included the lyrics for illustration

Back to Verse

An interesting fact is that The Nice's  Version released in the UK during 1968 (at
the height of protests against the Vietnam War) was considered an instrumental
“protest song” with the US Flag being burned at live performances. Even though the
Nice had Davy O'List as their Guitarist, he was sacked, allegedly for
inconsistency. Although Greg Lake did play Guitar with ELP, it was rumoured that
Emerson would have only tolerated Jimi Hendrix as “his” Guitarist. Well after
trying to amplify his piano to compete with incompetent Guitarists when he first
started, it is  an understandable sentiment.
