4 stars Dark and mysterious, Emerson Lake & Palmer's debut album is one of the better albums that came out in 1970. Mostly because of Palmer's impressive drumming and Emerson's fantastic keyboard's. Kick's off with "The barbarian", with an agressive gutar opening that sounds like something King Crimson could have done on that time. It's a very good song, although i don't listen to it as much as the other songs. "Take a Pebble" is a long, but very rewarding song by Greg Lake. It's one of the best songs on the album. "Knife Edge" is a very cool song with very cool vocals. Then "The Three Fates" comes. It's probably my favourite song on the album because im a huge fan of Emerson's piano skills. "Tank" features a great drum-solo by Palmer, but uforenately the rest of the song is not much to brag off. "Lucky man" is easily the worst song on the album. It's just stupid and pointless. Anyway, ELP kick's ass with this album, but "Tarkus" is even better! Recommended!
