Title: Noisy, Self Indulgent
Review: I'm glad Keith is still working in spite of his current physical maladies with his hands. Bonilla provides a good foil to Emerson's return to the stage without his ELP bandmates. But the live gig in Hungary, available as a bonus DVD with the Keith Emerson Band CD, is so much better. The Hungary rhythm section (bass and drums) was fresh and edgy. The Moscow rhythm section is not. I wouldn't really recommend this DVD: many of the works--most notably, Lucky Man and Tarkus--were marred by all that "heavy metal jamming" at the end. Also, I recall how cheesy Emerson's workstation pianos sounded this time around...Nice to have an official live version of "Touch and Go." The Finale from the recent album is pretty thrilling, if not a little chaotic...
