Greg Lake Joins Keith Emerson....
Milo,
I didn't post here when Keith Emerson died, but I was thinking about you, and SO wished I had made you that cape...
CARL PALMER STATEMENT ON THE PASSING OF GREG LAKE
It is with great sadness that I must now say goodbye to my friend and fellow band-mate, Greg Lake.
Greg’s soaring voice and skill as a musician will be remembered by all who knew his music and recordings he made with ELP and King Crimson. I have fond memories of those great years we had in the 1970s and many memorable shows we performed together.
Having lost Keith this year as well, has made this particularly hard for all of us. As Greg sang at the end of Pictures At An Exhibition, “death is life.” His music can now live forever in the hearts of all who loved him.

All and all, this has been a shitty year, and you would probably not be sad that you missed it.
With love,
