Brain Salad Surgery is an album released in 1973 by Emerson, Lake & Palmer. It features cover art by famous artist H. R. Giger. The most well known track is "Karn Evil 9 - 1st Impression Part 2" ("Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends..."). "Karn Evil 9" was so long it originally had to be split between sides 1 and 2 of the album. The original US CD release also divided the piece, but subsequent releases have presented it in an uninterrupted version.
The album has also been released on DVD-Audio, remixed into Dolby 5.1 and in many cases using alternative vocal tracks.

- The instrumental "When The Apple Blossoms Bloom In The Windmills Of Your Mind I'll Be Your Valentine" appeared on the b-side of the single version of "Jerusalem".
- The song "Brain Salad Surgery" surprisingly did not appear on the album of the same name, but was released on a promotional 7" flexi-disc together with excerpts from the album.
Both songs were later included on Works Volume II.
