Not this shit again
>>63232265
ringo will outlast them all.
we're approaching a time where an influential musician from the pop/rock canon will die every week. interesting times. will they become deified or fade into the collective unconscious

Fuck, I thought you were talking about McCartney.
I forgot about Beefheart.
>>63232335
ELP was more momrock. They were the girls' prog band in the early-70s, mainly because Greg Lake was such a qt.
>>63232384
And still the best prog band.
>>63232384
this is true
My mother always liked the Greg Lake acoustic guitar pieces
>>63232409
Not as good as Genesis, King Crimson, or Jethro Tull (yes Ian I'm calling it a prog band), but still good.
>It's real
NO
>>63232457
Jethro Tull might be my favourite band of all time but ELP is still a more archetypal prog band
Friendly reminder...
>>63232536
Thanks, this is going to the top of my listening list
>>63232457
King Crimson is legit. Genesis is boring and Jehtro Tull is a bizarre Focus cover band.
>>63232581
>Genesis is boring
Blasting Tarkus right now,
I hate having to live in this era where I have to be alive to see all of my idols die. :(
>>63232536
this is actually pretty good
I guess the show did end.
>>63232355
What?
Now playing.
>>63232265
>Paul McCartney will die in your lifetime
Yeah, about that...
>>63231500
Holy shit, he died right here in my city.
he'll be fine
>>63232844

hmmm, wonder who is next, how old is rod stewart?

>>63233414
Rick Davies of Supertramp has cancer or something, so I'm sure he'll be next, hopefully not though.

Is 2016 the death of prog?
>Rush announces retirement from touring

I want off this ride
>>63233913
Fripp too later this year, screencap this
>>63233818
hell be fine
>>63233984
I will literally cry if Fripp, Wetton, or Bruford bite the dust
>>63233984
If Fripp dies /mu/ will literally explode

I have an awful feeling that Nik Turner might not have long left. I met him after a gig in January and he seemed so frail and absent. He asked me if he knew me and said that he honestly couldn't tell if he did or didn't. He was a gebuine sweetheart though.
Who do you think is going to be the last man standing? My vote goes to geddy
>>63231500
I had to do a series of searches to find out who this is.
what
Oh god
>check out Keith Emerson's "Piano Concerto No. 1"
>"The greatest piano concerto ever written" in the comments
ELP fans are hilarious
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IIKrbVy4w8
Talk about depressing news.
okay what the fuck is up with this year and music related deaths
this is getting to be too much
Robert fripp is probably devastated.
>>63233913
>saw rush on their time machine tour at the gorge a few years ago
>they even played the temples of syrinx
feels good
reminder
Andrew Latimer
Robert Fripp
Peter Hammil
Geddy Lee
Roger Waters
will all die in the next five years
>>63234655
>Peter Hammill
NO! Fuck you!!
>>63234655
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
>>63234655
Forgot Brian.
>>63234655
Fripp won't. he's gonna reach his late-80s/90s, if not reach 100
We're entering the period of a mass rockstar die-off.
There are no brakes on this train. It has only just begun.
Calling it now: he was murdered
>>63234655
OZZY
Fuck this, man
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck this
>it was from a gunshot
Holy shit
Friendly reminder that in 2011, Tony Iommi was diagnosed with cancer that will kill him in 5 years. He will never be cured....
>>63234795
fuck, I thought that photo was a fake, it's real....
>>63231500
PLEASE NO
News reports are now saying his girlfriend found him with a single gunshot wound to the head. It's being investigated as a suicide.
MODS BETTER PLAY THIS ALL DAY. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89g1P_J40JA

oh my god

>>63234918
This is strange, RS says it was a gunshot in the tweet but not the article. And I can't find any other publication claiming it was a gunshot
>>63234987
I haven't seen anything other than TMZ, I'm hoping they just jumped on a rumor
STICKY PLEASE!
FOR THE GLORY OF PROG!!
i don't know who this is
>>63231500
He was the best.
>>63235148
Nobody knows who you are especially it's okay

what if bowie and squire were also murdered, but the culprit did a better job at hiding it
Wtf England, can't some musicians die from a different country for a bit, we'll have noone left soon
>>63234877
Oh shit yeah, I almost forgot about that.
Fuck me, this one hurts.
RIP Keith.
I always like ELP's Isle of Wight performance, was a pretty good festival all round in terms of artists
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHm_GD21nmA
https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/the_keith_emerson_trio/the_keith_emerson_trio/
Just in time to hear his last output
This blind girl nails Tarkus on Keith's very own Moog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLT3Cb96-Mk
>>63234795
he probably killed himself
>>63232536
>>63236958
yeah. maybe he was really sick with inoperable cancer or something.
>>63236431
Rachel Flowers is an amazing keyboard player. She totally gets all of Emerson's lines down to a T
See you space cowboy...
>>63237120
Yeah, it's nice to see someone from the younger generation with such talent and taste in music.
>>63237304
you might say she was...born in the wrong generation!
im absolutely devastated elp is one of my favorite bands of all time
i hate the fact that all of my childhood legends are dying it all started with peter banks and it's gotten worse
hurry up and sticky this, mods
>>63236958
Does that make him An Hero? Fuck!
>prog
>keyboardist
lmao who cares
>>63234877
Oh shit, I'm seeing Sabbath later this year, hope not too late.
>>63238950
I think his prognosis actually looks better, but it think he is still terminal in the long term. In Jan 2015 he said doctors don't expect it to go away
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I CAN'T EVEN GET THE CAPTCHA RIGHT
