I'm bereft :cry: :cry: So many of my favourite and heartfelt 70's songs were sung and played on by this man who had a great voice for the rock tracks and gentle ballads he sang. His Christmas single sounds jolly enough but the lyrics need proper listening to in my opinion.

How terribly, terribly sad... More of a loss to me than Bowie...

At Christmas, don't just play his single, but play 'Watching Over You' instead...
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way...The time has gone, The song is over, Thought I'd something more to say...

Greg Lake RIP,

'Confusion will be my epitaph
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back and laugh,
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying"
