Emerson of ELP Dies

[rcfieldz]

He had lightning fast fingers and intricate melodies in that brain of his.

The King is dead.

He didn't die on the toilet. He offed himself. There's a special place in "I Don't Give A ****" for both of them.

Does ELP stand for "Everyone Listen Please"?

Show some respect, asshole.

I apologize. What I said wasn't very well thought out, or funny. This man died, and deserves better. "Eats Lead Pellets" would have been a lot funnier considering the circumstances.

 

[rcfieldz]

He went out with a bang?

He went out with a bang?

He certainly got his last shot, and it was a killer.

 

[rcfieldz]

Now that's Brain Salad Surgery.

Where the hell are the mods?

Not very familiar with this band. They weren't a band when I was growing up. It's been quite a year so far (and we're only 3 months into it) for musicians dying though.

 

[Billo_Really]

oh shit.....i saw them around 71 at the Anaheim Convention Center.....probably the best keyboard player ever in rock....the best and 2nd best (Jon Lord) now gone.....

What did Rick Wakeman ever do to you?

They were fuckin' unreal.



To play that hard and driving without a lead guitarist is incredible.

Playing a piano like a harp might have been what fucked up his fingers?

 

[Billo_Really]

There was nothing country about an ELP Hoedown.

 

[Billo_Really]

Dammit, wrong thread!

 

[Billo_Really]

One of the loudest concerts I ever attended. My ears rang for a week. I think there was some blood!

That surprised me when I saw them. In fact, I've only seen one band that was louder than them................Led Zeppelin.

 

[Billo_Really]

Tarkus was always my favorite.

The King is dead.

Who you talkin' 'bout?

Rodney
Martin Luther
Elvis​

Be more specific.

Well, when the Pope sat in on a few of their sessions, they were called Emerson, Lake and Pontiff.

 

[Likkmee]

Someone should have warned him not to watch the debates

 

[ChrisL]

I know the song Lucky Man.
