Outro clássico do ELP alemão dessa vez um album conceitual baseado na história do gladiador romano Espartáco. A banda opta por composições menos extensas sem deixar de lado a complexidade. Claras referencias a músicas do ELP podem ser ouvidas nesse album, oque o deixa mais interessante.

Primo alemão do ELP, Triumvirat é com toda a certeza uma banda inspirada pelo trio Inglês, mesmo não sendo tão original é uma banda de qualidade. Nesse album o triunvirato alemão explora duas suites cada uma preenchendo um lado do vinil na época. E afinal de contas Jürgen Fritz não fica devendo muita coisa ao mestre Keith Emerson.
