(Ed. note: This review is of the CD version of In Concert, which came with the Welcome Back DVD. The DVD of the concert itself, the one captured on the CD, is not reviewed here). 

Well, at least he doesn't do "Lucky Man."

Oh, wait, my mistake. He does. In fact, any passing ELP or progressive rock fan can probably pick out most of the playlist of this 10-song CD, which hits the big ELP songs, Greg Lake's one album with King Crimson and one solo piece.

I shouldn't be so critical, but the back of this disc proclaims Lake as the voice of a generation. My response - what? The generation that grew up with Emerson, Lake and Palmer and early King Crimson is the same that grew up on the Beatles, Dylan and Led Zeppelin. On the lists of voices of that baby boom generation, Lake is probably No. 49, somewhere ahead of Arthur Lee but behind Van Morrison.

And it's hard to view this 10-song CD as nothing more than an oldies tour. Cashing in on his past glories as a 70s prog-rock superstar, Greg Lake -- the singer and bassist/guitarist for Emerson, Lake and Palmer -- has found a new band to play his old songs.
