The band had already released two very carefully performed studio albums, "Emerson, Lake and Palmer" (1970) and "Tarkus" (1971), the former being dominated by virtuoso keyboards and drumming; the latter being as bombastic as it was ambitious. Trilogy, their third studio album, presented a recession from the pretentious attitude of their first two albums. The 9 tracks have each been carefully conceived, arranged and performed, as in the style of the symmetrical classical era.
