KEITH EMERSON BAND's masterpiece audience shot is now available. This work was recorded in “Italy on July 11, 2006”. The KEITH EMERSON BAND also performed in Japan the previous year, but Dave Kilminster, who served as vocalist and guitar player in Japan, was replaced by the master Mark Bonilla. The show is almost solidified with ELP numbers, and the format is like "ELP with guitar". However, the content was far from that... When you start playing, the digital image quality unique to 21st century recording is extremely clear. As I was admiring, "Wow, this is beautiful," Keith appeared in a white shirt. "Karn Evil 9" starts by slowly playing around with the synthesizer. I was surprised when Bonilla started singing “Welcome back my friends…”. I wouldn't go so far as to say that he looks exactly like Greg, but he doesn't look out of place at all. Then, just as the great Keith was flying away smoothly, some kind of loud noise started to come in. ``I thought the sound was great, but it's no good'' and just when I was about to give up, the sound stopped coming out at all! Apparently, there was a problem with the on-site PA, and Keith was fiddling with his keyboard as if to say, "I'm not going to come out!" It seems that the noise mentioned earlier was also due to this. After the song ends, you can also see a scene where he gets into trouble with Roadie. Then, from the second song “Living Sin”, things started again. After that, there is no noise, and it runs to the end with a wonderful sound that rivals the beautiful image quality. This work opens with an unusual and very funny trouble scene, but the real point is actually here. Keith Odai's fingering, shown in ELP numbers one after another, is in perfect condition. The Bonilla guitar that supports this is also great. Although it doesn't show off fancy high-tech, the unison with the keyboard and light cutting are sharp. He himself is stupid, but more than that, his play pulls the mood of the entire band, bringing out Keith's great characteristics many times over. The one that explodes with its power is, of course, “Hoedown”! Mark's sharp cutting was crisp and crisp, and on top of that, Odai also showed off his sharpness for the first time in years... Then, Bonilla and Keith came out with their harmonicas and did a blues-like twin harp solo! This entertainment is what Keith is all about! Speaking of Odai's background, only classical music and jazz stand out, but black music is also deeply rooted in him. Some of you may have learned Scott Joplin from ELP. After that, they entered into “White Noise,” a non-ELP song that was unique in the show. It's Bonilla's solo number, but the heated battle here is amazing. Even in ELP, it is said to be "like three people fighting," but from a Keith fan's point of view, it can't be helped that it looks like the other two are following Keith's rampage. However, here it is an interplay where sparks fly between musical instrument experts. It's not about ego, it's a heated jam where phrases are thrown at each other and things develop one after another. It's ironic that it's a solo career where you can do whatever you want, but the battles are more heated than in a group... Even in the next song, "Lucky Man," which is synonymous with Greg, Bonilla fully excites the audience with his weeping guitar. ELP is without a doubt the highlight of Keith's career, and is the most desired, both commercially and emotionally. However, if Keith can do this much music and performance, maybe ELP is no longer necessary for Keith... Furthermore, the white eyebrow is “Tarkus”! It's a shame that the beginning of the song is missing, but it's a 30-minute long, enthusiastic performance version that includes drum solos and bass tapping solos. In particular, "Aquatarkus", in which the organ and Moog solo explode with force, is a tremendous performance that will leave you overwhelmed with emotion. There are also songs such as ``Konpeito no Odori'' and ``Russian Dance'', as well as ``Nutrocker'' where Bonilla's technical guitar and piano solo are dazzling. Every song shines with a vividness that goes beyond a mere "ELP with guitar". Odai, who ran through the 1970s with ELP from his late 20s to early 30s, was 61 years old at this time. What is shown in this video seems to be ELP, but it is not ELP, and may be music that is ``slightly different'' from the dreams we dream of. However, this is exactly the state that the giant who earned the name ``Jimi Hendrix of the keyboard'' and ``rock revolutionary'' has reached after reaching his 60th birthday. What was there was not a signboard that brought him fame, but the songs he had written himself and the friendship he had with his juniors who respected him through instruments. Although he is a giant who has rewritten the history of rock music, he is still a human being. When you think about that life, you may notice the "beauty" of this work. Beyond the phenomenon of ELP, we present this masterpiece video to everyone who loves the great man "Keith Emerson". Live in Afragola, Naples, Italy 11th July 2006 AMAZING SHOT!!! 1. Intro 2.
