Set 1: Hartford Civic Centre, CT - July 10th, 1977. 2008 repressing of this deluxe eight CD box set, subtitled From The Manticore Vaults. Four epic concerts make up this suitably extravagant box set by the unchallenged kings of Pomp-Rock, whose majestic three-way instrumental interplay laid down the blueprint for the Progressive '70s. Features shows from Hartford Civic Center (1977), Chicago (1978), Pennsylvania and Jones Beach (both from 1992), 61 tracks.
Volume #4 seemed to have completely caught me by suprise. Out Of The blue[excuse the unintended pun]. I was indeed unprepared; Since I own volumes I-III; I had no choice but to buy this ELP set. Volume IV contrasts dodgy to somewhat good -great audio performances of ELP specifically comparing/contrasting the ELP years of 1977/1978/1992. It is a true sucessor to volumes I-III.
Like the KCCC, Grateful Dead, (retired to pasture Dick's Picks); The Doors' Ban The Boots And Frank Zappa's Beat The Boots Volumes I and Duex(reversed?); These performances are not par excellence. But really, that's not the point is it?
To recap thus far: Volumes I-III are notoriously consistent with the varigated ELP interpretations of "Tarkus," "Pictures At An Exhibition," and "Take A Pebble." Why can't Yes do something like this? Jon, Chris and Steve? Earth to Jon and Chris…? Are you there?
Volumes I-III are worth getting for ELP's interpretations of "Tarkus" and "Rondo." They are of a piece. If anything the variations on these two ELP songs are like the interpretations of the 'Islands' band of King Crimson of that said material and The Grateful Dead's Dick's Picks series of "Dark Star" and "Sugar Magnolia" Yes' The Word Is: Yes, 3 CD set is a good try. Great stuff. But? I know you guys are sitting on some good Yes performances. The Word Is: Yes is varigated, uneven, but still - very good to great. For the Yes fan. I'd buy it. I did, eventually. I'm glad I did.
The mere fact that the ELP camp released this crusty and whorey tidbit means to me that there is still life in ELP(of some unassumable phantasm?). This particular survey of juxtipostioned ELP performances minimizes "Rondo" to give preferent maximum exposure to the 1990s new stuff and "Pictures." Sure: "Pirates" still cooks through all 4 performances. It drips Emersonian/Lake bliss….
Volume IV Live From The Manticore Vaults is aesthetically on par with volumes I - III. Once again I refer you to Dick's Picks and The King Crimson Collectors Club. ELP has just a different way of releasing its "bootleg" stuff. Greg Lake's voice may be shot to hell; Keith Emerson may be contemplating recording with The Nice; Carl Palmer seems to be the 'active member' currently.
Ahhhhhhhhhh…. There was a time when ELP were where it was "at." Even the 1990s second coming still had rough hewn teeth. But hey you decide for your self. No really expressive "Rondo"'s on this set. But maybe they deliberately wanted to highlight "Pictures?"
