The newly unveiled visuals spotlight the band’s explosive take on the instrumental piece, originally penned by legendary composer Henry Mancini for the 1958 NBCdetective series Peter Gunn. ELP first introduced their version in 1977, transforming the noir theme into a sprawling high-energy live showcase that became a staple of their stage performances and later earned the group a Grammy nomination.
Alongside the video release, the band’s Works Live album is being reissued in a newly remastered format, reportedly restored to the double-vinyl presentation originally envisioned by the late Keith Emerson. The updated edition will also include fresh artwork and liner notes.
Though Emerson, Greg Lake, and Carl Palmer defined the band’s original run, Palmer has continued to champion the band’s legacy through his ongoing multimedia touring project, Welcome Back My Friends - An Evening With Emerson, Lake & Palmer, which blends live performance with archival and digital recreations of his late bandmates. Dates and tickets for the event are here.
Today, the song is back in the stratosphere not only because of ELP’s groovy new video and album news, but also because the stellar track is featured in the trailer for David Fincher’s newest film, The Adventures of Cliff Booth, a spinoff of Quentin Tarantino's Oscar-winning Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood film, also starring Brad Pitt.
Four decades later, ELP’s explosive interpretation of “Peter Gunn” is finding new life and once again proving the staying power of rock’s most theatrical era.
