Info from the rear cover, "This is Emerson Lake and Palmer captured at the very beginning of a legendary career. Filmed at the time when the band had only just recorded their ground breaking first album ELP had to use all of their huge individual creative talents to create a full show.
That's what makes this film so special. Extensive improvisation virtuoso playing by Keith Emerson, inventive percussion from Carl Palmer and a bravura performance by the young Greg Lake make this an essential addition to the collection of any fan of the progressive rock era."
Approx. running time - 57 minutes.
These notes below taken from the Master Release Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Masters From The Vaults.
"Recording from 6th and 7th February 1971 in Theatre 140, Brussels. These shows were filmed for Belgian TV and broadcast May 13th, 1971 for the 'Pop Shop' series. Sound and picture from both shows were edited and pieced together for the broadcast, resulting in surreal vision of the musicians with different clothes during the same song.
The show and soundtrack was subsequently bootlegged, but also released officially, either in video or audio format, under different titles : "Masters from the vaults", "Live in Brussels 1971" etc. and even with wrong venue and date info.
The sound is unfortunately mono, but it is considered a must-have by ELP fans."

"Track 5 includes an acoustic solo part by Greg Lake singing "I Got A Dog And His Name Was Blue", not mentioned on the release. The track includes also a clavinet solo using parts from "Tank" (38'38-40'00).
Track 6 is only presented as "Knife Edge" on the release. This is in fact "Knife Edge" followed by an unidentified song (based on the riff of "Tiger In A Spotlight"), and the reprise of "Nutrocker"."
