Great album
Well just to follow on from the last post, I ordered the Keith Emerson Band’s CD a couple of weeks ago and received it last week. I have to say it is excellent. A real return to form for Emerson and a great contribution from Marc Bonilla. Emerson’s keyboards sound as good as ever, gritty and gutsy with of course fantastic playing throughout. The Hammond sounds like it did in the early days of ELP or even The Nice. Bonilla’s playing and singing are excellent in their own right and a great complement to Emerson’s brilliance. The writing is both fresh and complex and the whole band really rocks. It is definitely progressive rock, make no mistake, so it ain’t for the faint-hearted! However if you like that style of music and you crave a taste of the old glory, then go get this one. You won’t be disappointed.
And no, I’m not trying to promote the album in any way. Just voicing my opinion and my thumbs-up .
