There are a whole bunch of good choices, but I have to go for Toccata... especially the version on "Welcome back my friends...".

No doubt at all - The Barbarian! A real juggernaut of an instrumental...

The best ones are The Barbarian (gets my vote), Toccata and Abaddon's Bolero. I also like Tank (am I the only person who prefers the Works Vol 1 version? )

In the late 1970's, I heard Fanfare live and was absolutely blown away.

Two heads are better than one, but if you want something done right, do it yourself.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, but better safe than sorry.

Tank gotta love that drum solo in the middle. The clavicords rock pretty
good too. Overall great song  with Toccata at an extremely close
second.

Did you know that Toccata is not an original song from E,L&P but a cover or adaptation from the original composed by the argentinian classic composer Juan Jose Castro...?...well...that it...

I agree as well! But my vote goes to Hoedown - live - which just pips The Barbarian for me.

No, it was from Alberto Ginastera, wasn't it?
I voted The Barbarian. Still curious about Bartok's original (Allegro Barbaro)

Yes it was, in his autobiogrpahy Keith Emerson describes how he visited
him and got him to put an endorsement of ELP's version on the cover of
BSS.
