RIP Keith Emerson


Recently, I head about the loss of Keith Emerson, keyboard player of Emerson, Lake and Palmer and The Nice, who's 'Trilogy' and 'Pictures at an Exhibition' albums are some of my favourite and influential in my love of Prog Rock. He's having a hoedown elsewhere now...

Emerson, Lake & Palmer play their version of 'Promenade' from Mussorgsky's Pictures At An Exhibition

  1. Thanks for that, I haven't heard it for a while.
    I'll never forget Emerson's earlier band's version of America'. Leonard Bernstein by 'The Nice'.Amazing.

    1. I remember you playing me the original single! Excellent stuff; West Side Story meets Prog Rock.
