Greg Lake

BMG have announced that they will be releasing a career spanning collection from Greg Lake (The Shame, The Shy Limbs, King Crimson, Emerson Lake & Palmer) on October 23rd. We were sent the following details:

"The Anthology' has many notable highlights: for starters there's the hugely collectable Psych 45 'Love' that Lake recorded in 1969 whilst with the Shy Limbs, alongside carefully curated treasures from ELP's hit albums, notably 'Take A Pebble', 'C'est La Vie' and 'Lucky Man'. No Anthology would be complete without that much-loved solo hit 'I Believe In Father Christmas', the inclusion of King Crimson's '21st Schizoid Man', 'Peace' and 'In The Court Of The Crimson King', plus Greg's re-recording of the old ELP favorite 'Closer To Believing' which he made towards the end of his life and can be heard on CD2.

'The Anthology' is presented as a deluxe 2CD hardback set and on double gatefold vinyl. Inside is an extended essay from author Chris Welch alongside a host of unseen photographs alongside contributions from ELP manager Stewart Young and Greg Lake's wife of 40 years, Regina Lake, and many heartfelt tributes from other friends and colleagues. See the tracklisting below:
