- “Lucky Man” (1970) Dredged up from memory by Greg Lake, who wrote it at age 12 upon receiving his first guitar, "Lucky Man" is a "simplistic little medieval fantasy" (according to its composer) intended to fill out the trio's first album.
- “The Barbarian” (1970) Like most prog ensembles of the era, ELP was never much of a singles band. Apart from early hit "Lucky Man," "The Barbarian," was the true introduction to the public at large of ELP's staggering scope.
- “Tarkus” (1971) No one ever accused ELP of being modest, and nowhere is that more evident than on "Tarkus." Side A of the group's sophomore album is broken down into seven movements – totaling more than 20 minutes of music –that fold fusion and classical elements into a mythic prog sprawl revolving around a fantastic creature.
- “From the Beginning” (1972) Although it's undeniably a showcase for Greg Lake's moody acoustic guitar and vocals, "From the Beginning" from ELP's Trilogy provided the space for one of Emerson's most noteworthy keyboard solos.
