EMERSON,LAKE & PALMER-Tarkus-PROGRESSIVE ROCK-NEW LP

EMERSON,LAKE & PALMER

Tarkus

NEW LP

REISSUE

"1971's Tarkus is the second album by the undisputed first progressive 'supergroup' in music history.

Articulated in a powerful 20 minute suite on side one and a less volcanic but still focused and musically intense Side Two, the album presents the trio performing its best progressive rock, still rough and not too polished.

Tunes like the title track -- which undoubtedly competes with Yes's 'Close To The Edge' -- and 'Bitches Crystal' make this milestone of prog rock a must have for everyone who claims fluency in 20th century's pop music."
