Description
Greg Lake was a pivotal founding father of the progressive rock movement. A singer, guitarist and songwriter, he was a founding member of both King Crimson and Emerson Lake & Palmer – two of the greatest and most respected bands of the 1970’s. This box set celebrates the solo career of this incredible, versatile, and much-missed musician.

• 7 CD set presented in 10 x 10” box with 68-page book.

• A collection of the solo albums written and recorded by Lake along with rare tracks and live recordings that cover his time with ELP, King Crimson and beyond.

• Included are Lake’s two solo albums, two highly sought after bootleg collections and three live shows. All of which serve to illustrate the sheer depth of talent demonstrated by this incredible musician.

• Presented in a 10 x 10” box, this collection is accompanied by sleeve notes written by Jerry Ewing, editor of Prog Magazine. Ewing takes a forensic look over the immense catalogue of this once-in-a-generation artist. Ewing speaks with many of Lake’s collaborators and delivers a fascinating history of the man behind the music.

• The collection is presented with a 68-page book containing many never-before-seen photos taken directly from the Lake family archive.

This comprehensive collection has been curated with the full involvement and blessing of the Lake family, which has allowed for the inclusion of some unique and rare material.

All 7 CDs have been mastered from the best available sources by renowned engineer Andy Pearce.

Whether you are a seasoned fan or just starting out on your Greg Lake journey, there is no finer, deeper or more definitive anthology available on the market. A tribute, in the truest sense, to one of the greatest songwriters of all time.

Looks great. Far better than the Keith Emerson box set.
