Are we going to a symphonic-rock gem? And to this day I move to Germany with the legendary "Triumvirat". They have called the 'ELP' clones… hmm, well, but not be so exhaustive as to call them 'clones', some influence each other, nothing else. Triumvirat use their imagery to create their symphonic court music, however ELP takes the classic straight to their creations. Attention! I'm a fan of both groups. From Triumvirat, I've still this album along with "Illusions on a double dimple' are their finest works in my opinion, unfortunately after the death of Helmut Köller, Triumvirat was no longer the same. In 'Spartacus' are displayed all their creative energy, good keyboards, good melodies. The sound recordings of Triumvirat, it seems remarkable, excellent sound engineer.

Ah! The covers are cut quite simple, but effective. The mouse inside the bulb, I've always liked the plot of Triumvirat.Fran Solo, Sept. 2011
