After Emerson Lake & Palmer split in 1979, Keith Emerson and Greg Lake both explored solo careers. By 1984, the pair were considering their next move. Carl Palmer was busy enjoying success with Asia. So the two guys got Cozy Powell (Rainbow, Whitesnake) in to occupy the drum stool.
“When Cozy came in, he really dazzled us. We didn’t intend to put the group back together, but he was such a good technical drummer and such a good performer, we thought it might be a good idea to go back out with a new version of the band,” Greg Lake told the LA Times back in 1986. And so, Emerson, Lake & Powell began.
The new 3CD box set includes the band’s only studio release: “Emerson, Lake & Powell,” featuring 3 bonus tracks. Also included is their live album, “Live In Concert” and a CD of rehearsals, “The Sprocket Sessions,” which has previously only been released as a bootleg.
All material included in the box set has been re-mastered by renowned engineer Andy Pearce. It is also presented with an enhanced booklet with sleeve notes written by Prog Magazine editor, Jerry Ewing.
