Any of you old Rock & Rollers remember the Emerson, Lake & Palmer album "TARKUS"? I wonder if there is a story behind the armadillo? I've been thinking (uh-oh) of using it for an avatar. Maybe change my name to "MarkusTarkus! Cool

Follow-up to the first album, IIRC...of course I remember it!

lol man i used to follow these guys around in the early 70s, maybe this pic is of some use ......

Tarkus is erupted from a volcano, half armadillo and half tank - a machine of destruction. He goes about killing all other machines of destruction until a manticore convinces him that he, too (Tarkus), is a machine of destruction, whereupon he walks into the water and kills himself.
