Totally bringing this thread back from the dead....

2016 has seen its fair share of losses of those who’ve contributed to the musical industry - all due to our aging heroes - noting that we are all aging as well I guess.

The latest; Keith Emerson – Keyboardist of Emerson, Lake and Palmer (ELP).

For me this is car related. As a younger guy, I found myself watching (and taping on my Beta machine) TSN when they actually covered cool motorsports. The particular event tying in this thread with my piracy youth was Australia's version of the Dakar Rally during the 80's. ELP ties into this because in the middle of this particular coverage of that particular year’s event (1986), there was a musical interlude of ELP, (Palmer being replaced by Powel for this album). The song is here;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRsXvZiiNNY

The scenery while the song was played covered multiple cars crashing through the desert outback in the Land of Oz, overcoming obstacles of that great land where man wasn't really intended to tread. Not only did it strike a musical chord, it drove an idea that I should visit the Au.
12 years later I did get there, and stayed for 3 days short of one year starting in Cairns. Covering a track down the right coast, around to the bite in Adelaide then continued right up through the middle exiting from Darwin – all by bus and in hostels on a pathetically low budget. Awesome land, awesome people – loved every minute of it. Took in my only F1 event at Albert Park, sent home the very SSS coupe dash that I incorporated in the Bronze, and met many Datto 1600 enthusiasts.

All this thanks to an inspiring song from ELP that help me remember a motorsport event filmed in a far off land as a young boy.
