Emerson, Lake & Palmer: Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
AT THEIR peak Emerson, Lake & Palmer were one of rock’s most spectacular acts – musical virtuosos bravely fusing elements of classical and jazz with futuristic rock and staging some of the most extravagant shows the culture has known.
Live set Welcome Back My Friends... recorded ELP at their stadium-conquering best from 1973/74; historic gigs that saw Keith Emerson’s keyboard fly while he played it and Carl Palmer’s drum kit light up and revolve.

VERDICT 3/5
