2/3rds of one of my fav prog bands gone with just Karl Palmer left. Wasnt a big fan of kc, but liked a lot of elp. Its been a bad year indeed. I guess all the greats of my youth are getting to that age, especially with the oft heavy lifestyles they had when young. Anyway, cozy will be there so the other elp will be reformed.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Although my playing of his/their music is only sporadic, I am deeply saddened by the loss of this icon of Prog Rock. OK so I was more moved emotionally by the loss of David Bowie but ELP has been a bigger part of my life than Bowie ever was. Brain Salad Surgery will always be one of my top albums.
