    Trilogy is the third studio album by English progressive rock supergroup Emerson, Lake & Palmer, released in June 1972, by Island Records.

    The group had spent most of 1971 touring, and paused in September so they could record a new album at Advision Studios with Eddy Offord resuming his role as engineer. It would be his last with the group, as he later elected to work full-time with Yes.

    The album features "Hoedown", an arrangement of Aaron Copland's ballet composition which became a live favourite.

    The album was a commercial success, reaching No. 2 on the UK Albums Chart and No. 5 on the US Billboard 200. Lake's acoustic song, "From the Beginning", was released as a single in August 1972 and became the band's highest charting US single, reaching No. 39.

    The artwork was designed by Hipgnosis. It depicts a combined bust of the three members, while the interior of the original gatefold sleeve features a photomontage of the three in Epping Forest.

    Spanish artist Salvador Dalí was approached to design it, but he requested $50,000 to do it and was turned down.

    The front cover depicts each of the band members' faces; Emerson said this was because their previous albums had not featured them.
