[about Karn Evil 9]
What is the rest of the song like?  I have the "best of ELP" CD, which, as
I noted, only has "1st Impression, Part 2" of the song.  How is the rest of
it?  Also, do you have any corections to the lyrics - I doubt my transcription
"right before your eyes you'll hear laughter from the skies" is correct, but
I just can't figure out what it really is.

Does the rest of the song follow up on the circus/carnival theme (from which
I assume the title derives: carnival -> Karn Evil (or am I hosed on that))?

On a different note, why ar lyrics that come with albums never completely
right.  The Wall is a great example of this, even including the words to a 
non-existent song.  And my _Tommy_ CD's have a number of mistakes in the
printed lyrics - and it's not a matter of ambiguous pronunciations.  The
mistakes are quite clear.
