Tony Baloni Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Is Greg Lake the one who sings Trilogy? Did he sing in King Crimson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foolonthehill Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Yes to both of those. He was a part of King Crimson for their 1969 album "In The Court Of The Crimson King". The group went through a complete line-up change after that, and Lake moved on to form ELP with Keith Emerson and Carl Palmer. I like his versatility most. He can sing both mellow ballads and exciting rock 'n' roll very well. I particularly like his contributions to ELP albums: From The Beginning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Baloni Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I loved when he sang on Pictures at an Exhibition "From seeds of confusion, illusion, dark blossoms have grown" Their lyricist was amazing, I forget his name, but wasnt he the clarinet player from King Crimson?

c_s_1987 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) Definitely Greg Lake Definitely NOT Tom Waits King Crimson lyricist Pete Sinfield did write some songs for ELP. That's all I know about other KC members contributing to ELP. I think Greg Lake wrote most of their lyrics. Edited March 12, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Baloni Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Yeah, Pete Sinfield is who I'm thinking of. Haha, Tom Waits was a joke. Although have you ever seen him perform Chocolate Jesus? There's a video of it on youtube. I always viewed him as a joke, but I think I'm actually starting to become a fan of his! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawna Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 I've always thought the lead singer for Better Than Ezra had a good voice. I always thought Diamond Dave had a good voice. But he's an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
