ELP "Works" Hard on Vintage Live Set from Shout! Factory, "Boys Club" Set Makes CD Debut

September 26, 2013 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

P Montreal 1977Fans of Emerson, Lake & Palmer - not to mention fans of Keith Emerson's live work with Marc Bonilla and Deep Purple's Glenn Hughes - have got two new sets to look forward to this season.

Shout! Factory will release Live in Montreal 1977 on November 12. Recorded in support of Works Volume 1 - a double album which featured Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer each taking the reins on writing and production on three sides and two lengthy tracks ("Fanfare for the Common Man," "Pirates") on the fourth - Live in Montreal 1977 features tracks from all sides of that set, plus a healthy selection of prog-oriented fan favorites from the band's discography up to that point ("Karn Evil 9," "Pictures At an Exhibition," "Nutrocker"). This tour (and possibly this date), which also featured an intricate but costly orchestral accompaniment, has been represented on record before as 1979's In Concert album, released after the band's ill-received Love Beach (1978) and subsequent breakup, and by Castle in the U.K. as the double-disc Works Live in 1993.

Emerson Hughes BonillaRecently, Varese Sarabande has also taken to releasing a live show featuring one of the ELP members. At San Francisco's Maritime Hall on May 15, 1998, Keith Emerson took the stage with Glenn Hughes, former bassist/vocalist for the Mk. III and Mk. IV lineups of Deep Purple (the pair first met when Deep Purple and ELP co-headlined the California Jam in 1974), and guitarist Marc Bonilla (who would later join Emerson's backing band). The trio tackled tunes popularized by ELP ("Tarkus," "Fanfare for the Common Man"), solo tracks by Bonilla ("Afterburner," "White Noise") and a Hughes-led rendition of Procol Harum's "A Whiter Shade of Pale." Released on CD by a U.K. label in 2009, Varese's release marks the premiere release of the full show across two discs.

Boys Club Live in California is available now; you can order it (and pre-order ELP's Live in Montreal 1977) after the jump.

Mike Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he was a teenager. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, holding positions at Legacy Recordings and Rhino Records and contributing to Allmusic, Discogs, City Pages, Ultimate Classic Rock and Mondo Records, for whom he penned liner notes for his favorite piece of music: John Williams' Oscar-winning score to 'E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with his wife, a cat named Ravioli, twin daughters and a large yet tasteful collection of music.
