Carl Palmer is without a doubt one of my favorite rock drummer of all time. For me there is a " big three " that stand above the rest in that genre, and he is one of them. Bill Bruford and Neil Peart are the others. ELP is absolutely my all time favorite rock band, with Yes and Rush very close behind.

What a great story Larigot, including the part about Carl Palmer helping your drummer pack away his kit. I know if I had been so fortunate to meet Mr Palmer in this way, the event would be one of those memories frozen in time, to be remembered for the rest of my days.
