Carl Palmer announces Return Of ELP US live dates for July

Carl Palmer resurrects prog supergroup Emerson, Lake and Palmer with modern technology for US live dates

Carl Palmer has announced July live dates for the US for the Return Of Emerson, Lake & Palmer  summer tour. The tour continues the run of shows which began in November and December 2022 and reunited Palmer with his deceased former band mates. You can watch a promotional video for the tour below.

After exploring the idea of a hologram tour in detail, Palmer, along with the Estates of Keith Emerson and Greg Lake , opted for what they felt was a more honest approach using live footage of Keith and Greg from the band's 1992 performance at London's Royal Albert Hall on massive video walls alongside Palmer ad his ELP Legacy band (Paul Bielatowicz on guitars and Simon Fitzpatrick on bass).

Although Emerson and Lake passed away nine months apart in 2016, leaving Palmer to carry on the band’s enormous musical legacy, the voice and instrumentation of Greg Lake and the unmistakable keyboard mastery of Keith Emerson will be mixed with Palmer’s onstage live drumming to magically reunite ELP once again.    “The film ELP made of its sold out run at London’s Royal Albert Hall in 1992 had everything we needed to make these tours happen," Palmer explains. "We were able to use just the camera shots of Keith and Greg, with the sterling audio tracks of their performances resulting in a combination of film and onstage performance of my band that brings back the magic of ELP.”

CARL PALMER Announces 'The Return Of Emerson, Lake & Palmer' Summer 2023 Tour

Sole surviving member Carl Palmer , in association with the estates of his bandmates Keith Emerson and Greg Lake , has announced "The Return Of Emerson, Lake & Palmer" 2023 summer tour. Launching its second U.S .tour in July, the shows will actually again reunite ELP live on stage through modern technology.

The tour continues the successful run of show which began in November and December 2022. After exploring the idea of a hologram tour in detail, Palmer (with the estates of Emerson and Lake ) opted for what they felt was a more honest approach using live footage of Keith and Greg on massive video walls alongside Carl (and his band) playing live on stage. The voice and instrumentation of Greg Lake and the unmistakable keyboard mastery of Keith Emerson will be mixed with Palmer 's onstage live drumming to magically reunite ELP once again.

Emerson and Lake passed away nine months apart in 2016, leaving Palmer to carry on the band's enormous musical legacy.

Says Palmer : "The film ELP made of its sold-out run at London's Royal Albert Hall in 1992 had everything we needed to make these tours happen. We were able to use just the camera shots of Keith and Greg , with the sterling audio tracks of their performances resulting in a combination of film and onstage performance of my band that brings back the magic of ELP ."

After establishing themselves in bands such as THE NICE , KING CRIMSON and THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN , ELP was formed in early 1970 as one of rock's first (and biggest) supergroups. With record sales of over 50 million and decades of sold-out tours through the 1970s and again in the 1990s, EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER has remained one of the best-selling classic rock bands of all time. The band's complete recorded catalog, now under the direction and distribution of BMG , continues to be a steady force on the international music scene. The tour will coincide with the new BMG box set of classic ELP hit singles pressed on vinyl with reproductions of the original picture sleeves.

The tour is being launched with the full approval of the Emerson and Lake estates, as well as the various managers who have represented the members of the band. "Welcome Back My Friends - The Return Of Emerson, Lake & Palmer" will be focused on the U.S. and Canada through the rest of 2023, and eventually play all over the world where ELP toured throughout its career.

Tour dates:

July 08 - Saloon Studios Live - West Jefferson, NC July 11 - Epic Center - Green Bay, WI July 13 - Foellinger Theater - Fort Wayne, IN July 14 - Warner Theater – Erie, PA July 15 - Lorain Thearter - Lorain, OH July 21 - Robins Theater - Warren, OH July 23 - Southern Theater - Columbus, OH July 28 - The Keswick Theater - Glenside, PA July 29 - The Space At Westbury - Westsbury L.I., NY

Live reviews

Whilst participating in a debate on science and mysticism at the Glastonbury festival a few years ago, as part of the Radio 4 show The Infinite Monkey Cage, Blur guitarist Graham Coxon claimed that “I’d like to put faith in dark matter, but without the danger of becoming a progressive rocker.” We’ll assume he was joking, of course, but you have to wonder quite what the issue would be with becoming a progressive rocker; after all, if you take a band like Emerson, Lake and Palmer as your touchpoint, you’d realise that there’s certainly always been a wide audience for that style of music. The group enjoyed huge success during the seventies, bringing the influence of both classical music and jazz fusion into their sound in equal measure for a unique approach that saw releases like Tarkus, Trilogy and the brilliantly-titled Brain Salad Surgery meet with a fine commercial response in that decade, with gold certifications across the board for the band’s seventies output. After initially splitting in 1979, Emerson, Lake and Palmer reformed in the nineties to tour extensively - with extended, career-spanning shows meeting with superb reviews - but eventually would split again over concerns about a future direction of new material; since then, they’ve played just the one date, in London in 2010.

The Return of Emerson, Lake & Palmer: Welcome Back Tour

// monday, jan 1, 12am et, event details.

Promo code not found for this show.

Drummer extraordinaire Carl Palmer leads a tour celebrating the legacy of progressive-rock supergroup Emerson, Lake & Palmer. The trio were known for their classical influences, instrumental virtuosity and a string of platinum albums in the 1970s that made songs such as “Lucky Man,” “From the Beginning” and “Karn Evil 9” staples of rock radio. With full cooperation from the estates of his late bandmates, Keith Emerson and Greg Lake, Palmer developed this production, which combines live performance by Palmer and his current band with video of Emerson and Lake from a 1992 ELP concert.

Relive The Entirety Of Emerson Lake & Palmer’s Orchestral Tour 1977

via Cal Vid / Youtube

What’s equally better than an ELP album? Its corresponding tour of course.

On August 26th, 1977, at the Montreal Olympic Stadium, a recording of the Works tour was made. With the help of the Royal Montreal Philharmonic 65-piece orchestra and a 12-person choir, the band performed in front of an estimated 70,000 people in Montreal, Canada. Not in the history of music can be grander than this, we tell you.

ELP’s In Concert was the final of three live albums the band released during their classic period in the 1970s, making it a sort of bittersweet farewell. To promote their two Works albums, ELP embarked on a massive 1977 tour which featured a full orchestra. Bringing an orchestra on the road was becoming prohibitively expensive, so ELP had to play a few shows without it before calling off the tour.

This along with a much more refined Works Live (1993) are the two titles of the live album. In their prime, ELP’s historic performance was the band’s pinnacle achievement. The progressive rock band disbanded in 1979, three years after it was formed.

Take a look at the full concert footage in High Definition, and re-experience the glory of Keith Emerson, Carl Palmer, and Greg Lake with a series of performances below.
