2 albums coming in one pack - while his work with Geoff Downes is bundled together for first time

Greg Lake will re-release his two solo albums in a single volume in November – and he’s also bundled together the 1990 material he created with Geoff Downes.

The ELP man’s self-titled 1981 record has been combined with 1983’s Manoeuvres, and extended with four bonus tracks that were only previously available in his From The Underground Vol 2 title.

At the same time, Lake and Downes have assembled their collaborative work under the title Ride The Tiger, including an alternative take and two unreleased tracks, Street War and Affairs Of The Heart.

Greg Lake/Manoeuvres and Ride The Tiger will be launched on November 27.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
