More Emerson, Lake and Palmer
More Prog Rock
- You’ll find outstanding Double Plus (A++) sound on both sides of this vintage UK Island pressing
- ANALOG at its Tubey Magical finest – you’ll never play a CD (or any other digital sourced material) that sounds as good as this record as long as you live
- An excellent recording that really shines on a good pressing like this, courtesy the engineering brilliance of Eddie Offord
- 4 stars: “Every track on this album has been carefully thought, arranged, and performed to perfection…”
It’s not easy to find great copies of this album. This kind of prog rock demands big, bold sound, and not all copies have the size or low end weight to pull it off. Keith Emerson’s organ needs to extend all the way down, or it just doesn’t work. Both sides here have a great bottom end, and some real texture and space up top.
“From The Beginning” has the kind of analog magic that made it a staple in practically every stereo store I walked into back in the ’70s.
