On this day in 2024, poet & songwriter Pete Sinfield died. He was a significant part of the original King Crimson line up b/c he wrote/co-wrote many of their lyrics, incl the iconic In The Court of The Crimson King (composed by Ian McDonald).

Here's a group that Paul @mainlymono told me about a few years back. I ❤️❤️❤️ this song and the piano. Thanks, Paul!

A great ELP tribute band, Manticore, with their cover of Trilogy at Prog at the Ranch, Feb 2023. Joined by the incredibly talented Rachel Flowers. Thanks to Kevin's Cavern for upload.

😲 A video I don't recall seeing before (but if I did, it has been a while): Keith and Barock Project's string quartet in a 2007 performance, playing "Piano Concerto n.1" I could watch Keith play piano ALL DAY! 🎼❤️🎹

A video that helped wake me up (besides my coffee)! 👍😁 Keith was the master at improvising but Greg & Carl always kept up with him! 🎹🎸🥁🎤🎼

Here's a neat, behind-the-scenes Italian video about the boys performance in Rome, May 1973. I remember seeing this video a long time ago b/c Carl drums at jet speed, then almost physically gets sick after the gig from playing so hard.

I meant to post this yesterday in honor of Greg's birthday, but I mentioned it somewhere. It is Fil (AKA Pegasus) reviewing Greg's performance of "Still" at Cal Jam 74. You should watch the video. It is so nice & Fil is so articulate & descriptive.

This album caught my attention a few years back b/c of soldier & his horse. It is a haunting song that I feel has lyrics some might relate to. Being Veterans Day, never forget our veterans, who sometimes carry their burdens silently. ❤️🇺🇸🪖🐴

I "rediscovered" ELP on a snowy January night (2015?) when I watched this video on YouTube & ended up listening to their music for TWO hours! I hadn't heard them in many years & was shocked to discover their enormous -- and spectacular -- library!

This ("The Sage") is one of my 3 most favorite tracks by Greg. He was such a superb guitar player besides having the voice of an angel. 🎸🎤

Here is an awesome audio showing the varying ranges of Greg's voice. I have often read comments saying that Greg's voice was ELP's 4th instrument -- and I agree!!! Thanks to Hector Cheivz for upload. ❤️🎤❤️
