Greg Lake of Emerson, Lake and Palmer/King Crimson and Xmas perennial "I Believe in Father Christmas" has passed away from cancer. Keith Emerson went 9 months ago, leaving only Carl Palmer from ELP.

Such a shame... I know he wasn't part of the later years, but even so I'm glad I went to see King Crimson live last year. He was truly a pivotal person in the Prog Rock scene and will leave a lasting legacy.

Carl Palmer's brother teaches drums at our place. Great great drummer.
