Keith Emerson stepped down from his ambitions and pretensions after ELP was dissolved. By listening to the
playing style and occasional virtuosity on his 80's and 90's albums, it's not hard to judge that this comes out of his
shop, though.
Inferno is first Emerson's solo album, let's call it a relatively virtuoso soundtrack. Emerson plays confidently on
piano, synths, Moog and organ.
"Taxi ride" has the drive and speed rivaling ELP but it is too short to gain momentum. The last soundtrack
composition is in the same vein, though not interesting compositionally. "The library" is a solemn chord-based
church organ piece however I doubt it is played on a real church organ.
The album is rather patchy and does not provide a deep listening experience. Take is an occasional curiosity to
listen to.
