Emerson, Lake & Palmer

ELP
Emerson, Lake & PalmerEmerson, Lake & Palmer (ELP) were an English progressive rock group. In the 1970s, they were extremely popular, selling over 30 million albums and headlining huge concerts.The trio consisted of:Keith Emerson (born November 2, 1944) - keyboardsGreg Lake (born November 10, 1947) guitar, bass guitar, vocalsCarl Palmer (born March 20, 1950) drums, percussionThey were an early "supergroup", with Emerson coming from The Nice, Lake from King Crimson and Palmer from Atomic Rooster.The band formed in 1970. On two occasions in 1969, The Nice and King Crimson shared the same venue, first on August 10, 1969 at the 9th Jazz and Blues Pop Festival in Plumton, England and on October 17, 1969 at Fairfield Hall in Croydon, England.After playing at a few of the same concerts, the two tried working together and found their styles to be not only compatible, but complementary. They wanted to be a keyboard/bass/drum band - such a thing had never been done before, but they felt it was possible - and so searched out a drummer.Interestingly enough, Jimi Hendrix was considering joining the group; the British press, after hearing about this, speculated that such a supergroup would have been called "Hendrix, Emerson, Lake & Palmer", or HELP. Before settling on Carl Palmer, they approached Mitch Mitchell of the Jimi Hendrix Experience; Mitchell was uninterested but passed the idea to Jimi Hendrix. Hendrix, tired of his band and wanting to try something different, expressed an interest in playing with the group. Due to scheduling conflicts such plans were not immediately realized, but the initial three planned on a jam session with Hendrix after their debut at the Isle of Wight Festival, with the possibility of him joining. Hendrix died shortly thereafter, so the three pressed on as Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
