ELP return to one of the most ambitious chapters of their legendary career with Works Live, Canada 1977, a newly remastered document of the band's celebrated orchestral tour. Captured primarily at Montreal's Olympic Stadium on August 26, 1977, the album showcases Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer at the height of their creative and technical powers, blending progressive rock, classical influences and arena-scale performance into a truly monumental live experience.

Originally issued in 1979 as In Concert, the recordings were later expanded and reintroduced as Works Live, restoring much of the material originally intended for release. This latest edition presents the definitive version of the album with newly remastered audio, updated artwork and fresh liner notes, bringing renewed clarity and depth to one of the most significant live recordings in the Emerson, Lake & Palmer catalogue.

The collection features powerful live renditions of fan favourites including “Fanfare for the Common Man,” “Knife-Edge,” “Peter Gunn,” and the band's celebrated adaptation of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition. Recorded during the lavish Works era, when ELP performed alongside a full orchestra, these performances capture the grandeur, virtuosity and fearless musical ambition that made the trio one of progressive rock's most influential acts.

More than four decades after its original release, Works Live, Canada 1977 stands as an essential live statement from Emerson, Lake & Palmer, preserving a landmark moment in progressive rock history and offering fans an immersive glimpse into one of the genre's most spectacular concert productions.
