I just heard the news through my friends. This is another very sad loss along with Keith Emerson and Chris Squire recently. Greg was a great singer/bassist and played on the seminal prog album "In the Court of the Crimson King' before joining ELP.

A good write up is here (http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/greg-lake-emerson-lake-palmer-co-founder-dead-at-69-w454546).

I've got a lot of his work on vinyl.

A sad loss

RIP Greg

I think the words were "Maestro and poet".

Does anyone remember his Christmas song ?

Spooky Chris, we've just been listening to it on a 'Spirit of Christmas' cd from years ago.
