Emerson, Lake & Palmer announce newly remastered reissue of Works Live

Emerson Lake & Palmer in the 70s.

Prog legends Emerson, Lake & Palmer have announced they will release a newly remastered version of their Works Live album through BMG on July 24. The band have also shared a new live video for their cover of Peter Gunn.

Recorded mostly at their 26 August 1977 show at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal in Canada with three tracks being recorded from a show in Wheeling, West Virginia, USA, in November 1977, the album was originally released as the single album, In Concert, in 1979, but was later re-released and repackaged as Works Live in 1993, which fell more in line with the late Keith Emerson's wish that the original album be a double album, a move initially scuppered by the band's break up.

The new release features brand new artwork and new liner notes, and will be released as a double vinyl album, a 2 CD set and as a digital release.

Last month drummer Carl Palmer announced that he is bringing his immersive An Evening With Emerson, Lake & Palmer show to England for three dates in February 2027, which will feature the late Keith Emerson and Greg Lake appearing on big screens behind Palmer and his band.
