Keith Emerson is hailed as a keyboard legend. He is known as one of the most
prominent leaders in the progressive rock movement, fusing rock n roll with a
myriad of musical styles, such as classical, jazz and world music.
Marc Bonilla has played guitar and toured with Toy Matinee as well as
recording two critically acclaimed guitar instrumental albums. For over a
decade he has composed and performed for numerous television shows such
as Justified, The PJ s and 90210 as well as major motion pictures including Iron
Man 2, The Replacements, Scorpion King, and Falling Down, collaborating with
such notables as James Newton Howard, John Debney, Joel McNeely and Snuffy
Walden, and receiving an Emmy award nomination in 2001 for his score for
David Milch s Big Apple.
Filmed 2008 in Moscow, Russia with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound.
Last year marked Keith Emerson s return as composer and performer with the
highly acclaimed CD, The Keith Emerson Band Featuring Marc Bonilla. This DVD
captures the live recordings of six songs from that CD.
Highlights include re-workings of several classic ELP tracks such as a full version
of Tarkus, Karn Evil 9, Lucky Man, Bitches Crystal and The Barbarian.
What distingushes these new arrangements has been the addition of guitar
wizard, Marc Bonilla, both as singer and co-arranger. When interviewed recently
Keith confessed that these new re-constructions with guitar reflected more
accurately the way he had originally envisioned them.
Besides Emerson and Bonilla, the band members include drummer Tony Pia (who
has played with Edgar Winter, Brian Setzer, and is currently with the Doobie
Brothers) and multi-faceted newcomer Travis Davis on bass and backing vocals.
