Emerson, Lake and Palmer In Concert was a live album by Emerson, Lake and Palmer. It was released by Atlantic Records in October 1979 more as a contract-fulfilling album, since the band had broken up before then. It was later re-released and repackaged as Works Live in 1993.
Similar to most live albums, In Concert showcased fan favorites of previously released material. However, Peter Gunn, ELP's take on the classic TV theme song, was never released on any of their other albums. ELP frequently opened with this song on the Works Volume II tour.
