Keith Emerson of E.L.P. Has Died. May He R.I.P

Ultimate Classic Rock Article

Keith Emerson, keyboard-god of the classic progressive rock band Emerson Lake and Palmer was found dead on March 10 of a self-inflicted gun shot wound. He was one of my favorite musicians right along with Jon Lord of Deep Purple and Rick Wakeman of Yes. Mr. Emerson apparently had been suffering with depression and from a progressive/degenerative nerve condition in his hands.

I will always remember seeing a film where he played a piano during a concert and the piano spun end over end whilst he played.
