Releases from Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Steve Hackett and German electronic pioneers Tangerine Dream lead the way for prog and related releases for this year's Record Store Day, which takes place on April 23.
A vinyl reissue of Emerson, Lake and Palmer's third album, 1972's Trilogy, will be released through BMG, as will a triple vinyl edition of Steve Hackett's 1998 live album The Tokyo Tapes from Esoteric Recordings; a reissue made even more timely by the sad death of Ian McDonald, who features on the album.
Esoteric are also behind a new vinyl version of Tangerine Dream's second album, Alpha Centauri, and the German band also have a double vinyl Live At Reims Cinema Opera (September 23rd, 1975) available through the LMLR label.
And Be-Bop Deluxe fans will also be interested in a triple vinyl Live! In the Air Age – The Hammersmith Odeon Concert 1977.
There are also releases from Gong, Asia, Sandy Denny, Peter Gabriel, Opeth, John Carpenter, Wire, Sleep Token and more...
