Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
One of the many groups coming under the Supergroup name.
Formed in 1970, England.
The group disbanded after playing their final concert in San Diego in the year 1998.
Many reunitings of the group were tried during the groups fisrt split.
The members each came from quality bands of the sixties and seventies with the following.
KEITH EMERSON - Keyboards. Born 2/11/1944. Background came from the group 'NICE'.
GREG LAKE - Guitar, Bass, Vocals Born 10/11/1947. Background includes the band 'KING CEIMSON'.
CARL PALMER - Drums Born 20/3/1950. Background includes working with 'THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN' - 'ATOMIC ROOSTER'.
The groups was to be called 'Hendrix,Emerson, Lake and Palmer'. Hendrix was to be in the group from the start. This did not come to fruition as Hendrix died soon after.Hendrix was to join after the 'Isle of White Festival'.
Just of late Greg Lake has toured with Ringo Starr's band etc. Keith Emerson toured with 'NICE' and formed his own band. Carl Palmer formed his own band 'Carl Palmer Band'.
