| | EMERSON LAKE & PALMER (ELP) Trilogy reviews and MP3 |
 | | On "Trilogy", we meet new feats that were later equalled but never bettered: the almost offhand genius of “The Endless Enigma” and “Trilogy", the compelling tale of “The Sheriff", a sublime ballad in “From The Beginning", and the energized interpretation of Aaron Copland’s “Hoedown". |
 | | The "Trilogy" track starts with a VERY impressive piano part, very expressive, complex and varied, accompanied by Lake's soothing voice, reminding me the talents of Patrick Moraz, Jurgen Fritz and Eddie Jobson; the second part is a complex combination of mini moog, drums and percussions, reminding some parts of the excellent Triumvirat's "Spartacus" album. |
 | | 'Trilogy' is one of their top 5 best epic along with 'Karn Evil 9', 'Tarkus', 'The Endless Enigma' and 'Pictures At An Exhibition', and like '...Enigma' it starts quietly, with truly mesmerising piano playing from Emerson, with all kinds of flourishes throughout the intro, and a lovely vocal from Greg Lake. |
