A new ELP vinyl box set has been announced – and it'll be released later this year.
The 4LP collection titled Emerson, Lake & Palmer: The Anthology (1970-1998) will arrive on May 31 via BMG and will feature “a carefully chosen selection of ELP’s finest moments alongside fan favourites.”
The vinyl has been pressed on “galaxy effect” vinyl, with the material digitally mastered from HD sources at half-speed. The box set will also come with a 12-page insert, complete with sleeve notes written by Chris Welch and photographs of the prog giants.
It's available for pre-order and a full tracklist can be found below.
Last month, Carl Palmer revealed he was planning an “A-list” 50th anniversary celebration of the band, which will take place in 2020.
Palmer told Billboard Billboard: "I'm looking at putting a show together, probably in America with some A-listers. I can't tell you who they are, but in principle as a project it looks like it's going to go through."
In the same interview, Palmer also raised the possibility of a new ELP documentary, saying: "When we were signed to Sanctuary, ELP released a documentary that was six hours long.
"That got lost in the wash, so we're going back and re-editing that and putting together another couple of hours of documentary stuff that hasn't been seen."
Further details on both projects will be revealed in due course.
