Emerson, Lake & Palmer – Emerson, Lake & Palmer (Mobile Fidelity 180g 33RPM LP)

A genuine supergroup from the moment of its formation, Emerson, Lake & Palmer’s self-titled 1970 debut laid the foundations of progressive rock with audacious creativity and dazzling virtuosity. Blending classical reinterpretations with bold originals, the trio announced itself with epic scope and precision on tracks like “The Barbarian,” “Knife-Edge,” and the enduring ballad “Lucky Man,” whose Moog solo became a genre-defining moment.

Mastered from the original tapes and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, Mobile Fidelity’s numbered-edition 180g 33RPM LP reveals the album’s tonal depth, dynamic contrasts, and intricate textures with extraordinary clarity. From Greg Lake’s soulful vocals and bass lines to Carl Palmer’s powerhouse drumming and Keith Emerson’s keyboard wizardry, every note emerges with lifelike separation and focus.

Housed in a Stoughton jacket, this definitive reissue captures the vision, verve, and virtuosity that made Emerson, Lake & Palmer a landmark in rock history. More than five decades later, its combination of power, complexity, and accessibility still sounds as fresh and commanding as ever.
