Her voice is a little reminiscent of Chrissy Amphlett ...

I was listening to ELP, and the drummer is OK, but I don't need him so much. So I looked up Emerson Lake
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emerson_Lake
It did not work. Now, you can get two without Lake, though:

I have to search what that sounds like.

Well there was Emerson Lake and Powell, a comeback album of sorts. Drummer was Cozy Powell, who also played in Todd Rundgren's Utopia (see above). But I never got the album so I don't know if it was any good. Emerson Lake and Palmer's early stuff was the best. I love Brain Salad Surgery and Trilogy.

This was the single off that album. Didn't realize it was that long ago, 1986. Although it was wonderful to hear Greg Lake's voice again, it seemed to me at the time like they were trying too hard to sound epic, whereas is just kinda came naturally in their early days.

That's not half bad. There is still a Keith Emerson band touring. I think he had some arthritis problem with his hands the years he did not play.

I never did get to see the Nice and the years ELP came through my town, I did not have a car to get to the hockey arena. I always had to go buy the tickets so I could get the ride. I got ten Dylan tickets with all my cash on hand one time. It was easier to get people to go to Dylan than ELP.

Correction: Emerson suffered from Repetitive strain injury.

Emerson Lake and Palmer were so impossibly good in the early days. What happened? Why couldn't they keep up that momentum? Like Yes, their early stuff was so masterful, so brilliant, so inspired. But they became less and less impressive until finally they were cheesy and embarrassing. I don't know why this happens to progressive rock bands. Perhaps you can only progress so much. Or, a candle burning twice as bright only lasts half as long, or whatever that Blade Runner quote was.
