Emerson, Lake & Palmer - 1971 - Sheffield City Oval Hall, GB

Recorded on - Dec, 9th 1971 – Sheffield City (Oval) Hall

ELP were a huge deal in 1971. Formed from the ashes of The Nice, this tour largely promoted their debut album as well as a live recording released a few months before the tour. Although we had tickets we sneaked down to the City Hall early and were able to sit behind the gear and watch them setting it all up. Emerson has a massive Moog set up which looked like Nasa control. It was a stunning show, with plenty of Hammond mangling to enjoy as well.
