Can anyone tell me where I might get sheet music for any of the following? As far as I know they are out of print. 1) the album "A Trick of the Tail" : Genesis 2) any ELP except "Anthology" (which has "Pirates, "Fugue," "Officer and a Gentleman," etc.). Am particularly interested in "Take a Pebble," "Trilogy" (the title cut), and the "honky-tonk" piano stuff in "Benny the Bouncer," and "The Sheriff." 3) any other "honky-tonk" similar to above. Please reply by mail. Thanks in advance. Dave (psuvax1!gurney)

Sorry to post this to the net, but I don't think I got through to you by mail. All four ELP songs you mention are in a book called simply "Emerson, Lake, & Palmer" published by Warner Bros. The book also includes "The Endless Enigma" and "Jeremy Bender" and is *very* complete (including every composed note and most of the improvised stuff as well). If you can't get the book through a music store and you happen to live in the Boston area, I'm willing to sell mine - I haven't used it in quite a while (I mainly got it for the guitar solo in "Take a Pebble", which requires the G string to be tuned to A - I couldn't afford to keep replacing G strings).
