My introduction to ELP, "Tarkus" stands as one of Progressive Rock's absolute classics, mainly because of the brilliant opening title track that clocks in at 20 minutes. This track is by far ELP's greatest song along with 1973 "Brain Salad Surgery"s "Karn Evil 9". It's not a single boring moments on this track! The rest is all from OK to excellent. The OK tracks beign "Jeremy Bender" and "Are You Ready, Eddy". The excellent ones are tracks 3-6, while not up to pair with the fantastic title track, they're still highly impressive.

Highly recommended. 4/5.
