Welcome Back My Friends

Welcome Back My Friends - A People's History of Emerson, Lake & Palmer is an oral history of one of the giants of the British progressive rock world. **xA0;As ELP, Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer had five Top Ten UK albums, including a No. 1 with 1971's Tarkus, and a UK No.2 single with 1977's 'Fanfare for The Common Man'. With an estimated 48 million album sales worldwide, including nine RIAA-certified gold albums in the USA, ELP remain one of the biggest bands of the 1970s. Famed for the flamboyant stage antics of Emerson on the Hammond organ and Moog synthesiser, and mixing elements of classical and jazz music with symphonic rock, over 100 different ELP concerts are remembered through the memories of more than 400 fans in this fully authorised history of the band.
