    Re: Carl Palmer must be worried.

    Oh no, another one gone from my growing up years.

    Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Along with Cream, the first of the 1970s "Super Groups".

    The sooner we get to 2017 the better because the GR has been far too active this year.

    Epitaph

    Great song from one of the best albums ever, 37 years ago, where's it gone?

    In 1973 me and 3 mates worked at Butlins, Filey over the summer and the only music was a crappy hits compilation on the tannoy system. One morning the lad next door in the staff chalets ran a cable from his shaver socket and setup his music system outside. He played the album at full volume and within seconds an audience of 20 or 30 people gathered and sat on the grass to listen.
