Previously, a retrospective released by Castle Music back in 2006 provided a full career look at Greg Lake over 2CDs with 32 tracks. The Anthology: A Musical Journey will explore the music from early periods with The Shame and with the Shy Limbs, as well as King Crimson, ELP, and his solo periods. There are live and studio collections on this 2CD Book case. The booklet will contain unseen photographs, essays, and notes. a gatefold 2LP set will also be made available as will be DD versions.

The Anthology: A Musical Journey will be issued on CD, DD, and vinyl LP.
