The birth of THE BOYS CLUB started way back on April 6, 1974, at Ontario Motor Speedway in Southern California, at the Cal Jam rock festival. ELP and DEEP PURPLE were the headlining acts and was the first time Keith Emerson and Glenn Hughes appeared together on the same stage. It wouldn’t be until almost 25 years later that these two luminaries met again, this time under the new moniker of The Boys Club.

The Boys Club was the start of Marc Bonilla’s long musical collaborative partnership with Keith Emerson, and was the beginning of the very successful KEITH EMERSON BAND, featuring Marc Bonilla.

Live From California - due out September 3rd via Varese Records - features classic Keith Emerson ELP tracks, as well as songs from Marc Bonilla’s solo projects. The album also includes Glenn Hughes' soulful rendition of the PROCOL HARUM classic 'A Whiter Shade Of Pale'.

The album features four previously unreleased performances, 'Close To Home', 'Creole Dance', 'Honky Tonk Train Blues' and 'Fanfare For The Common Man / Rondo'.
