GREG LAKE Dead At 69

EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER's GREG LAKE Dead At 69 ELP's Greg Lake has died after a battle with cancer. He was 69 years old. Lake's passing was confirmed on the musician's official Twitter account by ELP's longtime manager Stewart Young who wrote: "Yesterday, December 7th, I lost my best friend to a long and stubborn battle with cancer. Greg Lake will stay in my heart forever, as he has always been. His family would be grateful for privacy during this time of their grief." Yes keyboardist Geoff Downes was one of a number of rockers who paid tribute to Lake on social media. He wrote: "Very sad about Greg Lake. I had the privilege of working with him on several projects. His great talent will be sorely missed by all". Lake is the second member of ELP to die this year, following the suicide of Keith Emerson in March.

Sad. Here is Greg Lake with Ringo and the All-Starrs from 2001:
And remember Keith Emerson died earlier this year, too; leaving just Mr. Palmer as the remaining member of that band. 2016 has been a rough year. RIP. -
2016 has been a shocker for big namess leaving us, im sure Greg Lake's famous xmas song will be heard a lot in the coming weeks.

"Welcome back my friend to the show that never ends...step inside...step inside...step inside" "He had white horses and ladies by the score...all dressed in satin and waiting by the door" Wherever your soul is travelling Greg... ROCK ON!!!

Yeah, I'd mentioned that in my original post.

^^ I think it feels strange losing the voices or players of sounds I have heard since I was born. It is almost like losing a family member. Just different. To think there is a world without them is incomprehensible to me at times. In The Wake Of Poseidon - King Crimson
RIP Greg ? -
that's two of them that are gone! That sucks!

Saw ELP three times in the 70's. Fantastic musicians all. Been listening to the first King Crimson album with Lake, and other ELP albums today. RIP Greg, you will be missed.
