Brain Salad Surgery is my favourite - Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends...

His book 'Pictures of an Exhibitionist' is quite entertaining reading too.

A very sad way to go but a great musical legacy, if you like that sort of thing of course.

Whatever your musical taste, I'm sure you can appreciate his virtuosity.

Got onto them in about 82 thanks to Wilts Rover and his brother playing me side 4 of "Works Volume 1"
As prog rock was persona non gratis then I managed to pick up their whole catalogue for peanuts on vinyl
Thanks for the music Keith R.I.P

Slight deviation from op but Greg Lake imo still has the "best" Christmas Record in I believe in Father Christmas .... but I am probably a bit biased
