This is the first every biography of Progressive rock supergroup Emerson, Lake & Palmer-one of the most successful acts of the 70s who, in terms of sound artistic vision and concept, operated on a scale for in excess of all rivals. Featuring The Nice's keyboard virtuoso Keith Emerson, King Crimson's Greg Lake on lead vocals and ball and Stomic Rooster's drummer Carl Palmer, ELP enjoyed a huge profile from the start. Their 1970 debut album Emerson, Lake and Palmer mixed new compositions with reinterpresations fo classical themes such as Bartok and Janacek, while Emerson's "Lucky Man" Moog solo represented one of the first recorded instances of the synthesiser in rock. After bestselling albums Tarkus, Pictures at an Exhibition and Trilogy brought the synthesiser to a wider audience, the band's recorded sound reached its apogee with 1973's high-concept album Brain Salad Surgery, which boasted artwork by Swiss Surrealist H.R. Giger. Live, the band was a phenomenon, tearing up European classical music and turing Copland inside out through a giant quadrophonic PA, in front of packed audiences, whiile a shirtless Emerson hammered knives into his keyboard. The rise of punk changed everything, and ELP split in the late 70s. However, by the 90s they were back with the classic Black Moon and a world tour that culminated in three triumphant shows at London's Royal Albert Hall. George Foster, Martyn Hanson, and Frank Askew are acknowledged experts on ELP and after five years of research, they have produced a gripping and fascinating document of one of the great rock bands of the 70s. George Forrester also provides a erudite study of the band's complex and challenging music.

Emerson, Lake & Palmer were, without question, one of the greatest rock bands of the 1970s. Selling millions of albums across the globe, and with all three members winning awards for their dazzling musical ability, ELP were no ordinary group. Superlative in every aspect, with a pioneering attitude, they were adored by their legions of fans, none more so than in the USA, where they toured widely in the first half of the decade. Considered one of the genre-founding bands of progressive rock, ELP were the embodiment of the dinosaurs that punk sought to kill. However, just like their peers - Yes, Genesis and Pink Floyd - they survived punk's onslaught, continuing to make albums until the mid-90s and touring right until their final concert, a headlining performance at London's High Voltage Festival in 2011. This book charts their rise, from the origins of each member in The Nice, King Crimson and Atomic Rooster respectively, via every track on all nine of their studio albums recorded between 1970 and 1994. Key recorded live performances - such as 1971's Pictures at an Exhibition - are also included. In addition, there are overviews on all three member's solo projects, together with the albums and singles they made before forming ELP.

Throughout the 1970s, no style of pop music was more controversial than progressive rock, and no progressive rock band was more controversial than Emerson, Lake and Palmer. The group’s imaginative fusion of rock, jazz, and classical motifs with cutting-edge technology, breathtaking virtuosity, and monumental stage shows made them hugely popular on both sides of the Atlantic and gave rise to a host of detractors. In Endless Enigma, Edward Macan argues that ELP was an important contributor not only to progressive rock, but to 1970s rock in general. Besides a magisterial band biography, Macan provides a comprehensive critical examination of the band’s music and, in particular, its best albums, such as Brain Salad Surgery, which addressed technology's role in fostering societal alienation and totalitarianism. His analyses are so perceptive, precise, and detailed, that listening to the recordings in conjunction with his comments opens new avenues of thought about the band and its music.

I am happy these rare 3 recordings have finally seen the light of day. This group was a transition for Keith, and myself that eventually got us back to Emerson, Lake & Palmer. We had formed 3" with Robert Berry, at the suggestion of Geffen Records and I think we made some pretty innovative music. This live concert proves the energy behind our music was very much alive and it still sounds relevant today. Some might say this was a left turn in our musical journey; but, in the end, the scenery wa

In 1858, Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote of "the Adirondacs .... where all the sacred mountains drew around us." Some years later, a handful of cacationing city dwellers were struck by the incredible natural beauty of a tract of relatively unspoiled and inaccessible forest land in the midst of the "high peaks" region of New York State's Adirondack Mountains. Body, they snatched the property from a threatened massive lumbering defacement and thus began, in 1887, the "Adirondack Mountain Reserve." This book is an account of the first 100 years of that enterprise, played out against the background of the vast wilderness area, the village of keene Valley, and a surprisingly successful dedication to "fighting off the inroads of civilization." Except for replacing horse-drawn carriages with one small motor bus in the 1930's, nothing much seems to have changed environmentally in those 100 years. The why and how of this is delightfully and intimatelyset forth in an extraordinary compilation of narrative, photographs and ancedotes, many previously unpublished. It becomes as well as intensely interestingpiece of regional history and sociological Americana.
