Emerson, Lake & Palmer Boldly Reimagine Mussorgsky's Signature Suite on Pictures at an Exhibition: 1971 Live Album Is a Groundbreaking Fusion of Classical and Prog-Rock Elements, Features Extraordinary PlayingMastered at MoFi's California Studio for Superb Sonics: Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's Numbered-Edition Hybrid SACD Plays with Breadth, Detail, Presence, and ClarityEmerson, 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. Following hours of rehearsals and sound checks, the trio delivered a performance for the ages. Issued five months after the band's sophomore LP Tarkus, Pictures at an Exhibition - bolstered by three additions to the original suite and a 'Nutrocker' encore that's a playful rock 'n' roll take on Tchaikovsky's 'Nutcracker' - blurs lines between genres and epitomizes the collective's virtuosity and verve.Mastered at Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's California studio and housed in mini-LP-style gatefold packaging, the fabled album comes to life with spectacular dimensionality, breadth, and detail on this numbered-edition hybrid SACD. Playing with outstanding clarity, it doubles as an admission ticket that never expires to the band's March 26, 1971 date at Newcastle City Hall. The primary difference from not being there in person? The levels of directness, presence, and separation are such that you'll immediately be grateful nobody is impeding your view or gabbing beside you as you soak in one of the most celebrated crossover experiments in history.Numbered Hybrid Stereo SACDNUMBERED SPECIAL EDITIONTrack List1.
