Emerson, Lake, and Palmer were the most bombastic and technically oriented of all the popular progressive rock groups of the '70s. By 1977, they had become so self-absorbed individually that they released a double album, with each member having his own side, and sharing the remaining side. Keith Emerson played a Steinway grand piano with the London Symphony Orchestra, Greg Lake sang some rather sentimental ballads, and Carl Palmer contributed a selection of drum-heavy fusion pieces.
When the trio came together, they performed Aaron Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man" and delivered a long, meandering song called "Pirates," showcasing their strength of playing classically inspired rock with wild synthesizer sweeps and Lake's sweet voice. This album may not be suitable for someone new to ELP. It is recommended to try "Brain Salad Surgery" or "The Best of..." for a proper introduction.
