Emerson Lake & Palmer - Pictures At An Exhibition

New Vinyl Record - Emerson Lake & Palmer - Pictures At An Exhibition

Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab – MFSL 1-617

Emerson, Lake & Palmer were so committed to their visionary interpretation of Modest Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" that the group recorded it twice. Unsatisfied with the quality of what was supposed to serve as the take for a concert album, ELP booked a different venue to stage another show and paid for production out of their own pocket. Following hours of rehearsals and sound checks, ELP delivered a performance for the ages. Originally issued five months after the band's sophomore LP Tarkus, Pictures at an Exhibition landed in the Billboard Top Ten and became a linchpin of the prog-rock canon.
