Title: Greg Lake...another 2016 victim
Post by: Josephus on December 08, 2016, 09:35:44 AM
2016 has taken another rock star, Greg Lake of King Crimson and ELP. (That's 2/3rds of ELP that have died this year).

:mad:

My mom used to sing me "In the court of the Crimson King" as a lullaby when I was a child. RIP  :(

Makes me regret I couldn't get tickets for the Crimson gig in Barcelona last week, although Lake hasn't played with them in decades. Fripp is bound to drop soon, too  :glare:

That's a really fucked up lullaby for a kid.

Though your mom's pretty cool

I did think it was a rather cool anecdote; guess it makes our Celedhring bout 45?  :D
