Buckle up, boys. This is when the heroes left from the sixties start dropping like flies.

One of prog-rock's absolute top-tier living legend's has passed away today.

There will never, and can never again, be a keyboardist quite like Keith Emerson.

RIP.

In honor - here is one of his best works ever...

♫ Right before your eyes we pull laughter from the skies
And he laughs until he cries, then he dies, then he dies! ♫
