Archive material and source history
Emerson, Lake & Palmer formed after Greg Lake left King Crimson, bringing together Keith Emerson's keyboard work and Carl Palmer's drumming. Their 1970 debut included 'Take A Pebble' and 'Lucky Man,' establishing a sound that mixed rock with classical and jazz elements.
They released several albums in the early 1970s, including Tarkus in 1971 and Brain Salad Surgery in 1973. These records featured extended compositions and Emerson's use of synthesizers and Hammond organ, while Lake handled bass, guitar, and vocals.
The band's elaborate stage shows and complex arrangements sometimes created practical challenges during tours. They broke up in 1979 after releasing Love Beach the previous year, though they would reunite occasionally afterward.
