Performer: Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Distributor: Gotham Distributing Corp. Notes: Emerson, Lake & Palmer Extended Versions contains ten of their best early-'70s material recorded live including the Greg Lake compositions "Still...You Turn Me On," and "Lucky Man," with jazz and classical concert pleasers like "Peter Gunn Theme," "Fanfare for the Common Man," and "Maple Leaf Rag." While the disc has some fine performances, it's missing a few key ELP album rock classics like "Karn Evil #9" and "C'est la Vie." Greatest Hits Live is the better deal. ~ Al Campbell
Emerson, Lake & Palmer were one of the most popular of the initial wave of 1970s British prog-rock bands. They sported post-British Invasion rock's first alternative to the guitar hero in Keith Emerson, whose outlandish keyboard antics rivaled the onstage pyrotechnics of Hendrix and Townshend. The group mixed heavy rock riffs with classical influences, relying equally on instrumental virtuosity and an epic sense of showmanship that won them countless fans in their '70s heyday.
