About this item

This special green slab of wax brings together two Emerson, Lake & Palmer tracks, one of them with a fresh twist from Dope Jams. The classic ballad 'From the Beginning' is rich in warm acoustic guitar and Greg Lake's evocative vocals so it stands as one of the band's most beloved and accessible moments. On the flip, 'When the Apple Blossoms Bloom...' receives a bold Dope Jams Kaatskill Mountain take, which flips it into a sprawling, psychedelic-drenched remix that infuses the instrumental with hypnotic grooves and experimental textures. With both cuts on one 12", this one is both a nod to prog rock's legacy and a bridge to new sonic frontiers.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Another one of those tidy Dope Jams edits shines the spotlight on Balearic-rock crossover legends Emerson, Lake & Palma with two incredibly striking tracks given the once over.
