Keith Emerson - keyboards
Greg Lake - vocals, 6 & 12 string acoustic guitars, bass

Recorded from Row 5, just left of center

source info: SoundProfessionals SP-BMC-3 (mounted in croakies)>Edirol R-09HR(24bit/96khz) through mic input, low sensitivity>Peak Pro 5.2 for editing, tracking, and conversion to 16bit/44.1khz wav>FLAC (level 5)

FLAC encoding with xACT 1.62 at Level 5
md5 checksum generated and verified using checkSum+ 1.5 for Mac

Other than some slight tweaking of levels, this is the raw recording. I feel it
needs some EQ'ing, but will leave that to someone else

show notes: this was the 4th gig of the Keith Emerson & Greg Lake tour of the
United States. Four of the early gigs were postponed, so this should have been
the 8th gig; as for the performanceÉ. well, you can judge for yourself. We all
know of Emerson's struggles with neural/motor problems in his right hand (4th &
5th fingers curl up, and he often just uses the other three fingers). On the other
hand, Greg Lake sounded *unbelievably good* compared to all of the shows from
the 1990's. His voice is deeper, yes, but the range is pretty good and his tone is
full and focused.

Thank you again and again, Dr. Forester!
Difficult to choose among these three concerts in 2010, right?
"Lynn" (March 11) is a perfect sound quality.
But for a real fun time, Try "New Bedford" (March 10):
perhaps the sound is not as good, but you will not regret!
