4 stars Probably their second best album after Brain Salad Surgery. The first track weighing in at just over 20 minutes is a masterpiece. Keith Emerson plays beautifully as does Carl Palmer And Greg Lakes Voice thrives.

Can't say much about the other songs. You could say they went a bit to far in trying to make the album a masterpiece but instead making the second side a tad shite.

Part from that it is a must have for any prog fan as it contains probably the best opening track from any prog album let alone any album.

4 1/2 Stars.

All ELP fans should have one.
