keith emerson assaulting his keyboards for 10 minutes
Keith Emerson (1944-2016) was an English keyboardist, composer and performance artist best known for founding the progressive/symphonic rock bands The Nice and Emerson, Lake & Palmer (ELP).
His flamboyance and dangerous performance acts began when a fight broke out during a performance in France with The Nice. Instructed by the band to keep playing, he produced some explosion and machine gun sounds with the Hammond organ, which stopped the fight. His band members recommended he repeat the stunt at the next concert, where Emerson played the organ back to front.
Emerson abused his Hammond L-100 organ by, among other things, slapping it, beating it with a whip, pushing it over, riding it across the stage like a horse, playing with it lying on top of him, and wedging knives into the keyboard. Some of these actions produced musical sound effects: hitting the organ caused it to make explosion-like sounds, turning it over made it feed back, and the knives held down keys, thus sustaining notes.
