Pictures At an Exhibition (Live CD)

Emerson, Lake & Palmer – Pictures at an Exhibition (Live) (Deluxe Edition 2CD)

Originally released in 1971, Pictures at an Exhibition is one of Emerson, Lake & Palmer's defining live albums, capturing the trio's groundbreaking reinterpretation of Modest Mussorgsky's celebrated piano suite. Recorded at Newcastle City Hall, the album perfectly showcases the band's virtuosic musicianship, seamlessly blending classical music with progressive rock and establishing ELP as pioneers of the genre.

This Deluxe Edition 2CD features the 2016 remastered Newcastle performance on CD1, including the complete Pictures at an Exhibition suite and "Nutrocker," plus a bonus medley recorded live at the Mar y Sol Festival in 1972. CD2 presents the previously released Live at the Lyceum Theatre, London (1970) performance, featuring early live versions of the Pictures suite alongside "The Barbarian," "Knife-Edge," "Rondo," and "Nut Rocker." Housed in a six-panel digisleeve with a booklet, this expanded edition offers a fascinating document of ELP's early live brilliance
