专辑介绍:
活泼、雄心勃勃、几乎完全成功的首张专辑,由键盘主导的乐器(《野蛮人》、《三个命运》)和浪漫民谣(《幸运儿》)组成,展示了三位成员令人生畏的才华。这张专辑在美国进入前20名,在英国排名第四,展示了这支乐队最不做作、最有音乐才华的一面——除了《三个命运》和《拿一块鹅卵石》中的一些片段,没有太多多余的地方,这里有很多令人印象深刻的音乐才华。“Take a Pebble”可能会被认为是那个时代的穆迪蓝调曲目,但事实上,穆迪蓝调的键盘手中没有一个人能像基思·埃默森那样独唱。即使在这里,在一个相对平衡的素材集中,这张专辑也展示了一种黑暗、野蛮、令人难以置信的哥特式边缘的开始,这种边缘以前在所谓的“艺术摇滚”中几乎没有出现过,这主要得益于爱默生的超现实管风琴和合成器的攻击。格雷格·莱克(Greg Lake)演唱的优美、刻意过时的《幸运儿》(Lucky Man)在调频广播中获得了成功,卡尔·帕尔默(Carl Palmer)凭借这张专辑(尤其是《三个命运》(Three Fates)和《坦克》(Tank))成为了成千上万潜在鼓手的偶像,但爱默生在这里成为了大多数公众的偶像。

Lively, ambitious, almost entirely successful debut album, made up of keyboard-dominated instrumentals (“The Barbarian,” “Three Fates”) and romantic ballads (“Lucky Man”) showcasing all three members’ very daunting talents. This album, which reached the Top 20 in America and got to number four in England, showcased the group at its least pretentious and most musicianly — with the exception of a few moments on “Three Fates” and perhaps “Take a Pebble,” there isn’t much excess, and there is a lot of impressive musicianship here. “Take a Pebble” might have passed for a Moody Blues track of the era but for the fact that none of the Moody Blues’ keyboard men could solo like Keith Emerson. Even here, in a relatively balanced collection of material, the album shows the beginnings of a dark, savage, imposingly gothic edge that had scarcely been seen before in so-called “art rock,” mostly courtesy of Emerson’s larger-than-life organ and synthesizer attacks. Greg Lake’s beautifully sung, deliberately archaic “Lucky Man” had a brush with success on FM radio, and Carl Palmer became the idol of many thousands of would-be drummers based on this one album (especially for “Three Fates” and “Tank”), but Emerson emerged as the overpowering talent here for much of the public.
