Hi guys

Although these titles arent on Estoteric (they are on Cherry Reds-Lemon label ) I thought I would mention as they are possibly of interest to some on here. They are up on preorder Amazon in the UK already including the tracklistings (17th May release) and are £7.99
and will be available from all Cherry Reds usual sources including the website.

CD Description-Volume 1
Greg Lake is a British guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter.
Lake was a founding member of the original incarnation
of the British group King Crimson, and was a member of
the super-group Emerson, Lake and Palmer. He also
toured briefly with the group Asia in 1985.
From The Underground Volume 1 is a collection of rare
and previously unreleased recordings dating back to
1969 and Greg Lake's days in King Crimson, rare live
recordings from Emerson, Lake & Palmer; and
unreleased tracks from two Greg Lake splinter projects,
EL & Powell
Previously only ever released via Greg s website this is
the first time this collection has been available
commercially.
With an enhanced booklet and new notes this is a must
for Greg Lake completists everywhere.

From The Underground Volume 2 Deeper Into The Mine,
is a second collection of rare and previously unreleased recordings dating back to 1969 and Greg Lake's days in King Crimson.
Also included are several never before-heard finished
studio recordings taken from the sessions for Lake's two
Chrysalis solo albums released in the 1980s; rare live
recordings from Emerson, Lake & Palmer; and
unreleased tracks from two Greg Lake splinter projects,
EL & Powell and Greg Lake's Ride The Tiger (which
included Yes/ Buggles /Asia keyboardist, Geoff Downes).
Among the most rare of the recordings found on From
The Underground Volume 2 Deeper Into The Mine are
several finished studio masters of outtakes from the
two Lake Chrysalis solo albums. He was backed by his
1981/83 solo band featuring guitarist Gary Moore and
also by the Grammy Award winning pop band, Toto.
Also included is a 1971 studio-quality live recording of
Lake's most popular group, Emerson, Lake & Palmer,
doing a previously unreleased song entitled Preacher
