Greg Lake had already walked out on one of Progessive Rocks main-stayers King Crimson, after their much-aclaimed and hugely sucessful debut album, 'In the Court of The Crimson King', to follow Keith Emerson's dream of an orchestral 'Super-Nice'.

This was an era when experimentation, LSD and the British invasion not only ruled the musical waves, but they could do no wrong. ELP were no exception.
Taking a composition from a 19th century Russian composer named Modest Petrovich Mussogsky, Pictures at an Exhibition is one of ELP's finest.
The title's of each song are pretty meaningless, what is important is the interaction between the trio and how well they perform. Keith Emerson with his screaching keyboard sounds, along with Carl Palmers timely percussion and Greg Lake's haunting vocals, create an electrifying orchestral sound which still sounds fantastic nearly 35 years on.
A concert filmed live in 1970. Tracks include 'The Barbarian', 'Take A Paddle', 'Pictures At An Exhibition' and 'Knife Edge'.

DVD Description
The innovative prog rock band--one of the most critically acclaimed of the genre--are filmed in 1970 performing a now legendary concert. Staged at the London Lyceum, their rock-influenced arrangement of Mussogorsky's PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION displays extreme musical aptitude and a penchant for taking risks. A highly influential move, ELP's foray into the world of classical music still maintains an echoing influence on rock bands, informing, for example, Metallica's performance with the San Francisco Symphony.
