They are dropping like flies.

An extremely talented guy.

I remember seeing him back in 1971 he was on the same bill as Jimmy Hendricks and the Doors perhaps they are all paying together now

ELP always struck a fine nerve for me, RIP

Not the nicest of ways to go either. Very sad. He was obviously in a dark place. Never really got their music but undoubtably talented and groundbreaking. Its been a bad 12 months

I think Brain Salad Surgery was the first album I ever bought, RIP Keith.

I always thought it was very apt when the played "Fanfare for the common man " at the Pod when the Top fuel classes were about to start

A very sad loss

I like the way you can miss-spell Jimi Hendrix soooo badly but get away with it cos you actually saw him

Oh no not another one and from one of the best Prog Rock bands I cut my rock teeth on. Depression is such a terrible illness. R.I.P Keith.

Jimi died September 1970 in London. Keith Emerson always respected as part of ELP and the Nice, another very fine talented keyboard innovator who's work still stands up today, they are indeed dropping like flies.........who is next?

Yep tony got my years wrong saw them at the isle of white it was August 1970 that I saw them all. It was ELP first concert remember him sticking knives in to the organ and then getting deafened when they fired two cannons we were at the front of the stage. loved America by nice

Hey Dave you are a lucky man, I would have loved to have been at that concert at the Isle of White in 1970.

Hi toney did a few concerts at the time. Went to Bath (Shepton mallet) Led zep. Santana, Deep purple, Fairport Convention.
And the Weeley, The Oval, and Hyde Park concerts and a friend of mine worked at the New festival hall and he used to get us front row seats. Getting old to many groups to remember.
