GREG LAKE of EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER Dies
08 December 2016
EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER singer, bassist and guitarist Greg Lake died yesterday (Dec. 7) after what the band’s Facebook page describes as “a long and stubborn battle with cancer.”
Lake, who came to fame as the singer on KING CRIMSONn‘s first two albums, formed ELP in 1970 with drummer Carl Palmer and keyboardist Keith Emerson of the NICE.
The group went on to become one of the most popular progressive rock bands of the ’70s on the strength of their jazz and classical music-influenced compositions.
This is the second loss EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER has suffered in less than a year. Emerson died this March after battling depression and a degenerative nerve issue.
We will have more on this breaking story shortly.
