It dawns on me that the premise of my last post, that one never gets a second chance to make a first impression, is contradicted by the title of the song “Karn Evil #9: 1st Impression—Part 2”.
Despite having been a fan of ELP for decades, I did not realize until I researched this blog post that the full name of the band is officially spelled out using an ampersand, as “Emerson, Lake & Palmer”.
Is a serial comma even possible with an ampersand?
