Choose.

For me is
1. Stones Of Years
2. Aquatarkus/Eruption
3. Eruption/Aquatarkus
4. Manticore
5. Iconoclast
6. Battlefield
7. Mass

(I like all the same this song in its entirety Smile )
Of course the best song on this album and one of the best of Elp

MASTERPIECE OF PROG ISNT'IT? Approve

Pretty much. It feels incomplete without the other parts though.

Stones Of Years, no doubt.
 
I love it when the music becomes calmer and Lake starts singing gently: "Has the dawn ever seen your eyes", which is a beautiful  poetic line, and Emerson starts doing his heart warming chord changes. Absolutely wonderful stuff! Clap

I like very much "Stones of Years" this vocal section is really amazing, Lake gives a great effort here playing 2 instruments and adding vocals...despite all the epic is incredibly.
Prog´ everyday in every way of your life including music!

Although I love Stone of Years, and the slappy bass in parts like Manticore and others, I really like the drumming and Lake's vocals in Mass, so I'm going with that..

Eruption. What an introduction!
 
If it was the live version (and I assume its not) then would easily be Aquatarkus.

Totally Eruption. Mainly because Carl Palmer answered my question regarding it on Classic Rock Presents Prog (see latest issue) but it's also FRIGGIN' PWN.
Trendsetter win!

The search for nonexistent perfection.

On the studio recording, Eruption.
