   ELP's debut is absolutely stunning and it gets my vote.Time And A Word and Trespass are not very far behind, though, in my personal top 3.

	Now this really is a tough one, very difficult to choose. The only one I'd quickly discount is Time and A Word. The 2 KC albums are among my favourites of theirs (even though I'm not a huge fan), Trespass is quality whilst AHM has moments of true genius. The AHM Suite is the best piece of music from any of these albums but the album is of varied quality. At a push I'm going for the ELP debut. If you asked me say which one of these I fancied playing right now (truth be told I've not listened to any of them in ages) that's the one I'd pull from the rack. Come to think of it I might just do that...........

	Considering Lizard, Atom Heart Mother and Trespass. It is a tough choice for me.

	Trespass. Timeless
	I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

	Emerson, Lake & Palmer.
	When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night.

	ELP by a mile. What a killer debut album! Trespass, Benefit and Time and a Word a distant second. Floyd and Crimson bringing up the rear.
