From The Beginning: Greg Lake's Career Celebrated on New Compilation, "The Anthology: A Musical Journey"

September 11, 2020 By Sam Stone 3 Comments

GregLake AnthologyAMusicalJourney 2CD

PRE-ORDER 2-CD SET FROM AMAZON.COM

Greg Lake left behind a rich musical legacy when he passed away in 2016. As a member of Emerson Lake & Palmer, King Crimson,  pre-Crim bands The Shy Limbs and The Shame - not to mention his talents as a solo artist, producer, and composer - he helped define the landscape of progressive rock. A new career-spanning compilation called The Anthology: A Musical Journey will pay tribute to his contributions through the decades. It will be released on October 23 through BMG.

The two-disc set features 33 tracks, including many of Lake's best-known songs, beloved album cuts, and rarities. There's the hard-to-find "Love" that Lake recorded with The Shy Limbs, ELP favorites "Take a Pebble," "'C'est La Vie." and "Lucky Man." His time with King Crimson is represented with "Peace" from In the Wake of Poseidon, "In The Court Of The Crimson King." recorded live at the Fillmore West, and "21st Century Schizoid Man" as performed solo in 1981. A clutch of '80s solo material is also included, alongside a collaboration with Geoff Downes and a number of live recordings. Lake's re-recording of the old ELP favorite "Closer To Believing" - one of his final recordings - is another highlight of the collection.

The Anthology: A Musical Journey is presented as a deluxe 2CD hardback set and on double gatefold vinyl. Inside is an extended essay from author Chris Welch, rare and unseen photographs. and reflections from collaborators, friends, and colleagues.  This fitting collection arrives October 23 on BMG. You can peruse the track list and place your orders with the links below!

He quickly began to learn all he could about rock and roll history and beyond, a passion that continues to this day. Sam followed his love for music to the classroom, earning a B.A. from Towson University in Electronic Media and Film, concentrating on radio and audio production, as well as an M.A. in Audio Arts from Syracuse University. He has put his knowledge and skills to work at prominent reissue labels and is excited to bring his perspectives on catalog music to a broader audience. When he’s not writing for The Second Disc, Sam can be found researching about music, talking about Joni Mitchell’s career, and adding another box set to his Amazon wish list.

    'Still' from Pete Sinfield solo album, 'Epitaph' and 'Cadence and Cascade' from King Crimson deserved a place in this anthology, I believe. I Love the selection otherwise.

      The late Gordon Haskell sang the vocal on the released album. I understand that there is a “guide vocal” sung by Greg available.
