This MFSL  TARKUS Anadisq 200 heavy vinyl re-issue is a piece of musical history and is the only audiophile pressing of this classic recording. You will be one of the last to own this MFSL 7,500 Pressing Limited Edition Long Out of Print Masterpiece.

The second recording by the originators of classical rock. Originally released in 1971, Tarkus features the sonic array of Keith Emerson's layered keyboard and Car Palmer's percussion supporting bassist Greg Lake's classic voice. This album gave to progressive rock a definition. Rock became more than a 4/4 rhythm, it was an alive style. The beginning of the Tarkus suite has one of the most complex Moog synth sounds, which ELP used a sample in the 92/93 tour. Lake's and Emerson's styles are melted for good in this album.

It seems that they were trying to fuse musical ideas and Palmer is, as always, perfect in everything. Tarkus is one of the best essays on progressive rock, number one in 1971 UK charts. It's true that it's not as united as Brain Salad Surgery, but on the other hand, it's very fluent. The live version of Tarkus in 1973/74 was bigger and very interesting also (available in "Welcome Back My Friends..."). What was the "B-side" of Tarkus has a lot of different genres, from rocky to classical, from almost heavy rock (Bitches Crystal) to pure humored rock and fascinating homages to J. S. Bach in "The Only Way", one of the most beautiful songs they did, followed by one of the most despaired: Infinite Space.

This album is from a time when any music of ELP was a rock treasure. Anadisq 200 Series are mastered with the GAIN SYSTEM and were designed to get the most from your sound system while capturing the incredible realism and presence in the listening experience without the annoyance of surface noise, distortion, hiss and disc warpage.

MFSL LIMITED EDITION. This Limited Edition FACTORY SEALED LP is an audiophile collectors item that simply gives the feeling of being directly in the studio with the artist. Used nothing but the finest lacquers. The more you play the LP, your stylus will polish the grooves and actually improve the sonics of your Anadisq 200. It includes rice paper disc sleeve to protect each of these rare LPs. This recording is mastered from the Original Session Tapes. This Out of Print LP has all Liner Notes, Photos, and Artwork from the Original LP faithfully recreated.

A SONIC WORK OF ART. These Out of Print gems are the Finest/Rarest of the audiophile LP market. The future of these collectibles is so exciting because each piece is a sonic work of art that will never be reproduced using this state of the art proprietary technology, high quality ingredients and attention to detail from beginning to end. The depth and dimension of the music is delivered back to you with all the dynamics and richness of the live recording session. With Mobile Fidelity, you will come as close as possible to hearing the three-dimension quality of the music just as the artist intended it to be.

EMERSON LAKE & PALMER - PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION - NEAR MINT MINUS COPY GATEFOLD JACKET - This is a MFSL Super Virgin Vinyl (so pure that you can see through it if held up to the light) JVC Half-Speed Japanese Pressing. THIS recording is from the Victor Company of Japan for state of the art audiophile pressings.

This MFSL LP was pressed in Japan before Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs eventually pressed their Lps in the United States. The LP was Half-Speed Mastered with the Ortofon Cutting System from the Original Stereo Master Tapes. This MFSL LP has a special static free, dust free inner sleeve and heavy-duty protective packaging. This LP has been Out of Print for OVER 25 years and a bonafide audiophile collectible. 

In the Seventies, numerous rock and pop groups attempted to produce a maximum of sound on the stage with a minimum of manpower. The majority of them failed miserably in their struggles to master the Moog synthesizer with its 28 million varieties of sound — but not so for Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer. Their legendary rock version of Mussorgsky’s piano cycle, which was set down for posterity during a live concert in Newcastle’s City Hall, towers above all other recordings of the kind. Perhaps their success is due to the fact that the trio steered away from the temptation of creating electronic, grandiose sound effects. Their vocals, guitar and drums produced a highly original and contemporary yet soulful rendering.
