Julien's Auctions Announces Music Icons: Property From JULIEN’S AUCTIONS ANNOUNCES MUSIC ICONS: PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF GREG LAKE PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release: JULIEN’S AUCTIONS ANNOUNCES MUSIC ICONS: PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF GREG LAKE Legendary Emerson, Lake & Palmer Frontman and Progressive Rock Pioneer’s Guitars, Stage Used Rug, Wardrobe, Music Gear, Memorabilia and More Offered MAY 18, 2019 Los Angeles, California – (April 17, 2019) –Julien’s Auctions, the world record breaking auction house, has announced PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF GREG LAKE as part of their MUSIC ICONS auction taking place on Saturday, May 18, 2019 with historical items by other music legends (to be announced) live at Hard Rock Cafe New York and online at juliensauctions.com. The auction will feature guitars, memorabilia, stage wardrobe, personal items, tour ephemera and more owned and used by legendary singer, bassist, guitarist and producer Greg Lake of the English progressive rock supergroup, Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Born on November 10th, 1947 in Bournemouth, England, Greg Lake’s music career had an auspicious start when he befriended neighbor and fellow guitarist Robert Fripp. After a brief stint playing with the Gods, Lake joined Fripp on his band King Crimson where the band found success and critical acclaim in their 1969 PAGE 1 Julien’s Auctions | 8630 Hayden Place, Culver City, California 90232 | Phone: 310-836-1818 | Fax: 310-836-1818 © 2003-2019 Julien’s Auctions JULIEN’S AUCTIONS ANNOUNCES MUSIC ICONS: PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF GREG LAKE PRESS RELEASE groundbreaking debut album, In the Court of the Crimson King and in their 1970 follow up In the Wake of Poseidon, both of which showcased Lake’s lead vocals and bass guitar work. But it was in December 1969 while on tour with The Nice that Lake’s life and the history of Rock ‘N’ Roll would change forever when he met the band’s keyboardist Keith Emerson. The two shared a musical kinship and recruited drummer and percussionist Carl Palmer of Crazy World of Arthur Brown and Atomic Rooster to join their new trio. In 1970, Emerson, Lake and Palmer was born and became an instant sensation upon their arrival on the music scene and one of the most popular and successful progressive rock bands in the Seventies. (pictured left: Lake’s Gretsch guitar) Their 1970 self-titled debut album and their consequent albums–Tarkus (1971), which hit Number One in the U.K. album charts, Pictures at an Exhibition (1971), their landmark Brain Salad Surgery (1973), Works Volume 1 (1977), Works Volume II (1977), Love Beach (1978)– all went gold in the U.S., and several charted in the Top 10 of Billboard’s album chart. Their songs “Lucky Man,” “Karn Evil 9,” “Tarkus,” and “Fanfare for the Common Man” became prog-rock classics and the group would sell more than 48 million albums with Lake serving as producer for most of the group’s works, including six of the group’s albums that went platinum. (pictured right: Lake’s wardrobe case and leather and suede jacket bottom left) Beginning with their first prominent performance at 1970’s Isle of Wight Festival, ELP’s live sold out concerts became the stuff of legend with light shows and theatrics including the parading of their “Tarkus” mascot. Their grand, symphonic rock musical sound, that fused adaptations of classical music and jazz drew widespread attention and praise from the public, music critics and musicians, including the heavy metal group Iron Maiden who cited ELP as one of their influences, and earned them three Grammy nominations throughout their career. In 1975, Lake recorded a solo single “I Believe in Father Christmas” which became a Number Two hit in the U.K. behind Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and launched a solo career in 1979. The band reunited partially in the 1980s as Emerson, Lake & Powell with Cozy Powell in place of Palmer and in 1991, the original trio reunited and released two more albums Black Moon (1992) and In the Hot Seat (1994) and toured from 1992-1998. In commemoration of their 40th anniversary in 2010, the band played their final performance together at the High Voltage Festival in London. Lake died at the age of 69 in 2016, nine months after the death of Keith Emerson that same year.

The initiative's first installment, which arrived in late July, includes two-CD editions of the group's first three albums -- its 1970 self-titled debut and 1971's Tarkus and Pictures at an Exhibition -- as well as a career-spanning, three-disc compilation titled BMG Emerson, Lake & Palmer: The Anthology. ELP frontman Greg Lake tells ABC Radio that he's very pleased with the reissues. "They've remixed them. They've used the finest quality processing. They've gone into the vaults [and] dug up things that haven't been released before," he notes. "You know, just a general effort to represent the band's history in the best possible way." The Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Tarkus reissues include alternate mixes of the albums by award-winning prog-rock producer Steven Wilson, plus several previously unreleased bonus tracks. Pictures at an Exhibition, features ELP's original March 1971 concert performance of Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky's famous classical piece, along with an unreleased bonus performance of the piece recorded in December 1970.

Rivista di cultura musicale e guida ragionata al collezionismo", qui pubblicato, con alcune varianti, per gentile concessione dell'autore. Premessa (2008) Alla fine degli anni '90, stanco dei bootleg, Robert Fripp decise di commercializzare ufficialmente alcuni live dei King Crimson su cd, muovendo dal presupposto che, se fino a quel momento i fan avevano acquistato materiale del gruppo dal vivo di scarsa qualità, facendo guadagnare esclusivamente biechi 2 / 10 King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 imprenditori pirata, poteva egli stesso vendere le medesime esibizioni, ufficializzandone l'uscita sul mercato discografico e, congiuntamente, perseguendo anche un (legittimo) fine di lucro. Poiché anche parte delle registrazioni in suo possesso erano qualitativamente scadenti, conscio dell'impossibilità di immetterle nel mercato senza suscitare polemiche, decise di distribuirle solo agli iscritti di un club, il cosiddetto “Collector's Club”. Coloro che vi avessero aderito, previo versamento di una cifra iniziale abbastanza consistente, avrebbero ricevuto i titoli pubblicati di volta in volta, vedendosi scalato il valore di ogni singolo disco dalla quota d'iscrizione. L'iniziativa andò avanti con ottimi risultati fino al 2002, quando - abbandonato definitivamente il metodo dell'iscrizione al Club - i cd furono inseriti nel catalogo della DGM, unitamente ad album ufficiali dei Crimson e di altri artisti della scuderia.

  • 40Th Anniversary Reunion (DVD) Page 1 of 2
    FAME Review: Emerson, Lake, & Palmer - 40th Anniversary Reunion (DVD) Page 1 of 2 FAME Review: Emerson, Lake, & Palmer - 40th Anniversary Reunion (DVD) 40th Anniversary Reunion Emerson, Lake, & Palmer MVD Visual - MVD5219D (DVD) Available from ELP's web store . A review written for the Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange by Mark S. Tucker ([email protected] ). While I was ecstatically getting my brain razed by some of the latest NuProgressives (Chocolate Horses and Nerves Junior being two of the most recent and among the best), this MVD DVD providentially came my way as kind of a subtle grail, a piece of the true cross, a time machine back to where it all started. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer have reigned as co-equal kings among a coterie of legendary ensembles from an age when unbelievable intelligence, talent, and musical mastery held sway, a time that sadly waned as the shenanigans of punk took over (a regicide happily and speedily failed, as we've seen), and is now in the last gasps of its glory. Before Jorden Rudess, Vitali Kuprij, and others arose, Keith Emerson, Jon Lord, Kerry Minear, Mike Pinder, and sundry geniuses established what virtuosity meant in a rock keyboardist. Before Mike Portnoy, Neil Peart, and other skins-pounders took over the reins, Carl Palmer, Bill Bruford, Ginger Baker, Keith Moon, and others were the drummers to be feared and admired. And when it came to the bass guitar, Greg Lake, Colin Hodgkinson, and Percy Jones preceded Flea and the gaggle of modern day four- stringers. There are aways antecedents. Earlier, Emerson fulfilled a dream we progheads have long held: the reunion of his pre-ELP band, The Nice, and, man, was it ever a rare thrill to see Keith, Brian Davison, and Lee Jackson making music again (if you're a Nice fan, check out the hideously cool Microwerks Diamond Hard Blue Apples of the Moon 2-CD issuance of 'bootleg' materials from the original 60s Nice).
