I can't figure out how to order the HD digital download that will be released on 11 March. I went to the Cherry Red records website, but I only see information for the physical product (DVD/CD). Does anyone have info on how to purchase the digital release?

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding and this will be some sort of streaming release like from Amazon Prime?

**rminsk** · 03-05-2021

From what I understand is the digital download will be part of the DVD/CD package.

Been waiting for this one. Thanks.

Where did you see this? It's March 11 and I checked my usual digital sources (including Amazon) and didn't see anything.

I thought that this was mentioned in the Youtube event last week. But, I can't find any other confirmation of this "high resolution digital release" on any website. rminsk suggested (above) that it was perhaps a benefit of the physical product purchase.

Ok - so, I got this in the post today.

And, I'd like to say that, I probably didn't have overly high expectations...

...but it's superb. Really, really, superb.

The sound quality on both dvd & cds is excellent, the camera work & editing is unobtrusive & on point...

But most of all, the gig is brilliant - everyone really does a fantastic job, & there are so many highlights. For starters - the smile during the Endless Enigma Fugue when the crowd go crazy, Tank, Jobson utterly nailing the moog solo for Lucky Man (& Baxter on the same tune), Philippe Saise, finishing the main set with two minutes of The Great Gates.

The joy of the musicians is palpable, the variety of the evocations of Emerson's own playing is extraordinary (Brian Auger!). Most of all - the *spirit*.

I bought this, assuming I'd watch it once. But it's one I'll be going back to, often.

A word, finally, for Bonilla - he did an extraordinary thing for Emerson - in a selfless, but also brilliant, way.

Still can't find it. Just a CD with an Emerson and Lake tribute, which also looks interesting.

Did anyone do Toccata?

Ah - sadly, no.

And The Nice are pretty much airbrushed out of the whole thing (no pictures of Emerson with Jackson, Davison or O'List) - even to the extent of Auger talking about Brubeck's Blue Rondo, as if this had never been a song The Nice adapted...

Talked to Marc Bonilla and the high definition digital download should be available soon. It will come with the concert and the DVD extras in high definition and some other features.

Thanks for this update. I looked around the web earlier today and could not find a way to order the HD download. It's good to hear that this is still in the works.

That's the attraction. The spirit and love are what make it worthwhile for me.
