Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Live At The Kingdom Festival (2020)

SUPERB BROADCAST RECORDING FROM ELP S LATE- 90S REFORMATION TOUR After a period in the mid-1980s, when Keith Emerson and Greg Lake reformed as Emerson, Lake & Powell - with former Rainbow drummer Cozy Powell, but after one 1986 album and a tour, the trio went their separate ways. But in 1991, Emerson, Lake & Palmer reformed and issued a 1992 comeback album, Black Moon, on Victory Records. Their 1992-93 world tours were successful, culminating in a performance at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles. In 1994, the band released a followup album, In the Hot Seat, after which they went on hiatus because of health problems suffered by both Carl Palmer and Keith Emerson Emerson and Palmer eventually recovered enough to start touring again, beginning in 1996.

Their tour schedules took them to Japan, South America, Europe, the United States and Canada, playing new versions of older work. They played in significantly smaller venues compared to their heyday (sometimes fewer than 500 people, as in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil). Their last show was in San Diego, California, in August 1998. Possibly the very finest show of this tour however took place at the Kingdom Festival, in the Villaggio della Musica (the Music Village), Bellinzona, Switzerland, on 25th July 1997. The trio performed a stunning concert set made up of timeless E.L.P. classics and more obscure numbers. and put on a quite dynamic show that many fans remember fondly to this day. Previously unreleased, this stunning show was recorded for live FM Broadcast and is now finally available in its entirety on this new 2 CD set.
