Triumvirat ist eine Progressive-Rock-Band aus Deutschland, die 1969 von J�rgen Fritz, Hans Bathelt und Dick W. Frangenberg gegr�ndet wurde.
Sie spielte Progressive Rock, angelehnt an den Stil von Emerson, Lake and Palmer und Focus. Von Anfang an dominierte Komponist und Keyboarder J�rgen Fritz die Band. Im Jahre 1976 konstatierte er beispielsweise „Triumvirat ist nicht l�nger eine Band, sondern allein meine Sache, das Vehikel f�r meine Musik“, trennte sich vom Rest der Gruppe und setzte fortan nur noch auf Gastmusiker. Die Antwort kam postwendend von Hans Bathelt, der sich vor Gericht die Rechte am Namen der Gruppe sicherte. Fritz musste deshalb die Band f�r sein n�chstes Album in „New Triumvirat“ umtaufen.

From the start, Russian Roulette is nothing like the classic Triumvirat music period that fans knew and loved. The songs are catchy, but not commercial to the point of irritatingly so, and there is diversity here, which creates different moods, and that is actually refreshing. "Party Life" is an infectious song that flirts with an almost new wave/punkish feel and is quite well done. There is the reggae tinged "The Ballad Of Rudy Torner", the upbeat rockers like "Cooler" and "Were Rich On What We've Got", and the more mellow "Rien ne vas Plus"
Different songs for different moods-it is obvious in this musical experiment straying so far from what was tried and true for the band, Triumvirat had no one track mind. And a couple of musical guests from the excellent group Toto, Steve Lukather and Jeff Porcaro, help to diversify and shake things up, creatively.
When guitar player/singer Helmut Koellen left the band after the "Spartacus" tour in 1975, things were never the same, never on the same quality level-they couldn't be, with Koellen absent.
