RIP Greg Lake - "I Believe In Father Christmas" (1974)


Man, another one bites the dust in an evergrowing list of dead rock stars in 2016!

We just found out that Greg Lake passed away at the age of 69.

We'll always love Greg Lake for his work on that first King Crimson record, as well as most of the stuff he did with prog rock juggernauts, Emerson, Lake & Palmer.  (Especially the early stuff... no thank you Love Beach!)

Plus, 'tis the season... we've always been suckers for his prog rock lite take on the holidays on this song penned by Lake and Peter Sinfield, whose credits include penning lyrics ELP, as well as for those first four Crimson records! 

RIP Greg Lake... oh what a lucky man you was!
