Carl Palmer Live Album Coming

Carl Palmer of Asia, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, and The Crazy World of Arthur Brown is set to release a new live album, titled Working Live � Volume 3: Featuring Pictures at an Exhibition, on October 19th.

Working Live � Volume 3 is the third installment in a series where Palmer, with his own band, reinvents his previous bands' work. "As with Working Live Volume 1 and 2, the idea with this record was to capture my own band arrangements of these classic and rock anthems originally recorded with ELP," says Palmer. "We never attempted to recreate those legendary recordings by ELP, but, rather, to reinvent them into something completely different, with my own band, which is guitar-driven."

Rounded out by bassist Stuart Clayton and guitarist Paul Bielatowicz, Carl Palmer's trio revisits some well-known numbers, like "Peter Gunn," "Nutrocker," and "Pictures at an Exhibition." Palmer and his players infuse these tunes with flowing musical diversity, ranging from jazzy improvisation, soaring stylized guitar leads, funk bass lines, classical melodies, and hard rock shredding, completed with Palmer rounding out the final song with a dynamic drum solo. Working Live � Volume 3 goes beyond the title of "live album" � this is a listening experience.

Carl Palmer and his current trio, which features Bielatowicz on guitar and Simon Fitzpatrick on bass, will hit the road this October for a North American tour. His work has also been showcased on the recently released Pictures at an Exhibition: Special Edition DVD (July 27, 2010) and Live at Montreux 1997 Blu-ray (June 22) via Eagle Rock Entertainment.
