Comments for Emerson, Lake, And Palmer, The Atlantic years

Overall, a nearly perfect cd compilation. I was totally amazed by how clear the sound is. I feel that this particular compilation could have been made just a little bit better by the inclusion of "C''est La Vie" and "Trilogy." Altogether, however I believe that this particular compilation showcases the best works of Emerson,Lake and Palmer. The artwork by Hans Neleman, of the classical bust with the face emblazoned with the letters "ELP" is almost like a work as imaginative as something created by Salvador Dali. The inclusion of the liner notes by Jean-Charles Costa gives a good background of the history of Emerson,Lake and Palmer. A tremendous selection of works from ELP''s best cds. I thoroughly enjoy this cd immensely. It is no.3 in my book, just slightly behind Rush''s "Exit... Stage Left" and "Power Windows" and slightly ahead of Yes'' "Keys To Ascension." Another great "ELP" compilation is the recent release of "The Best Of Emerson, Lake and Palmer" by Rhino records! Sincerely, Keith Davis please e-mail me at any time thank you!!!

This double cd-set is a good introduction to ELP
