The concert recording features ELP and King Crimson classic tracks such as “Lucky Man”, “Karn Evil 9”, “21st Century Schizoid Man” and “In The Court of The Crimson King”, as well as songs from his critically acclaimed first solo album from 1981. As a founding member of King Crimson and Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Greg Lake has been a major force in music for over 40 years. He has long been considered a legendary voice and musical powerhouse whose impact changed the landscape of rock and roll. Many simply refer to him as “The Voice”. The Greg Lake Band made its live debut on one of the biggest stages available to it, the annual Reading Festival in England in August 1981. Much of the set was new to the audience – Greg’s first solo album would not be released for another month. But the band received a wild reception regardless, and there were enough old favorites on display to ensure the fans remained happy…including the show opener “Fanfare for the Common Man,” truly one of the most effective showstoppers ever to have opened a concert. The band’s full tour kicked off in October. Purposefully, Lake demanded smaller venues, the theaters and universities that truly represented a refreshing change from the monster domes he’d visited the last time he hit the road in 1977 with ELP. The string of shows launched in Wales, at Aberystwyth University, then moved onto Cardiff University, Dunstable Queensway Hall, Norwich University, Liverpool Royal Court Theatre, Newcastle Mayfair, Glasgow University, Edinburgh Playhouse, Sheffield Lyceum, University of Kent Canterbury, Birmingham Odeon, Leicester Polytechnic, Bournemouth Winter Gardens, Exeter University, St Austell Cornwall Coliseum, Crawley Leisure Centre and, finally, London’s Hammersmith Odeon. It was not an extravagant performance – no lasers, no levitating keyboards, no priceless Persian carpets. The myths and legends that surrounded ELP when they toured were all firmly locked away. The Greg Lake Band toured like a band, and on stage they simply took up their positions and played. Brilliantly. That last date on the tour is where this disc was recorded, in front of 2,000 fans who now had every note of Greg’s new album memorized, and the rest of the set firmly entrenched in their DNA: the snatch of “Karn Evil 9” that eased out of the opening “Fanfare”; “Love You Too Much,” the song Lake co-wrote with Dylan in what remains another of the tantalizing collaborations of the age; “Retribution Drive” and “The Lie” from Greg Lake. “21st Century Schizoid Man” and “The Court Of The Crimson King,” from Lake’s stint with King Crimson, wrapped up the evening in positively rhapsodic fashion, and, finally, “C’est La Vie,” from ELP’s Works. (The version of this track included on the CD is taken from a show in New York City 1981) “A single night at the tail end of a single tour, alive with promise, bristling with presence. And welcoming back some new friends, too” – Dave Thompson, writer Artist Gregg Lake Genre Progressive Label Purple Pyramid Records Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Medley: Fanfare For The Common Man / Karn Evil 9 Nuclear Attack The Lie Retribution Drive Lucky Man Parisienne Walkways You Really Got A Hold On Me Love You Too Much 21st Century Schizoid Man In The Court Of The Crimson King Bonus Track: C’est La Vie (Live in NYC 1981) Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Progressive Nearly New View Product Quick View Steamhammer Mountains Blues | B & C Records | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 25th May 2023 £40.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Steamhammer Mountains £40.00 Genre: Blues Label: B & C Records SKU: nn264417 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 25th May 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Atomic Rooster In Hearing Of Progressive | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 11th August 2017 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Atomic Rooster In Hearing Of £20.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1908 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 11th August 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Emerson Lake & Palmer Pictures At An Exhibition Progressive | BMG Records | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 25th July 2016 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Emerson Lake & Palmer Pictures At An Exhibition £19.00 Genre: Progressive Label: BMG Records SKU: BMGCATLP3 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 25th July 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gentle Giant In’terview [2023 Steven Wilson Remix] Progressive | Chrysalis | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released 7th July 2023 £20.00 - £22.00 Select options Gentle Giant In’terview [2023 Steven Wilson Remix] £20.00 - £22.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Chrysalis Formats: 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 7th July 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View VOLA Witness Progressive | Mascot Records | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 21st May 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders VOLA Witness £20.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Mascot Records SKU: 0810020503548 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 21st May 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nad Sylvan Spiritus Mundi Progressive | Inside Out | 2LP, Includes CD Released 9th April 2021 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nad Sylvan Spiritus Mundi £25.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Inside Out SKU: 19439858301 Formats: 2LP, Includes CD Released Date: 9th April 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Pineapple Thief Nothing But The Truth Progressive | K Scope | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 22nd October 2021 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Pineapple Thief Nothing But The Truth £25.00 Genre: Progressive Label: K Scope SKU: KSCOPE1136 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 22nd October 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Big Big Train The Likes Of Us Progressive | Inside Out | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 1st March 2024 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Big Big Train The Likes Of Us £29.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Inside Out SKU: 19658832261 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 1st March 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kansas Point Of Know Return Progressive | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 15th January 2021 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kansas Point Of Know Return £21.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP874C Formats: 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 15th January 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Steve Hackett Genesis Revisited Live: Seconds Out & More Progressive | Inside Out | 180g, 2CD, 4LP, Box Set Released 25th November 2022 £43.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Steve Hackett Genesis Revisited Live: Seconds Out & More £43.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Inside Out SKU: 19439998411 Formats: 180g, 2CD, 4LP, Box Set Released Date: 25th November 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Progressive Start again
