キース・エマーソン（Keith Emerson）のキャリアを振り返るCD20枚組ボックスセット『Variations』が海外で10月13日発売。リリース元はSpirit Of Unicorn Records。

キース・エマーソンの素晴らしいキャリアの中から、ザ・ナイス（The Nice）やエマーソン、レイク＆パーマー（Emerson, Lake And Palmer）はもちろんのこと、ザ・T・ボーンズやクリス・ベイバーとの初期のレア音源、エマーソンの全ソロアルバム、彼のサウンドトラック作品、指揮者テルケ・ミケルセンとのコラボレーションであるThe Three Fatesプロジェクト、そして、これまで未発表だったものも含むライヴ音源の数々が含まれています。

このボックスセットは、エマーソン・ファミリーの全面的な関与と祝福のもとにキュレーションされています。キースの息子であるアーロン・エマーソンは「父の長いキャリアを通じて拡大した偉大な作品のすべてを共有できることに、大きな興奮を覚えています。私たち全員にとってそうであったように、皆さんにも多くの喜びを与えてくれることを願っています」と語っています。

『Variations』は10インチ・サイズの特製ボックスに収められ、20枚のCDには英Prog Magazineの編集者ジェリー・ユーイングが書いたライナーノーツが付属されます。ユーイングは、膨大なエマーソンの作品を深堀し、エマーソンの魅力的な歴史を伝えるために、彼のコラボレーターの多くと話をしています。また『Variations』には、エマーソン・ファミリーのアーカイヴから直接撮影した未公開写真を多数収録した48ページの本も付属されます。
