Everyone should shed a tear. A genuis finished out his life tragically, and a sweet soul carries on his legacy with such love and devotion. It should touch us deeply.

Three people had to give a thumbs down for a blind woman that plays beautifully, and gets emotional at the loss of a great musician and friend (Keith Emerson)during his tribute? Time for you to live among the other apes and through feces at each other. You are not worthy to be exposed to such beauty.

In 1971-2, I was exiting a department store with my mother and little sister and realized that I had not noticed the music playing over their building-wide speaker system. Instead of the typical elevator Muzak, the standard at that time, some exceptional individual was instead playing "Lucky Man" throughout the store building. As I was holding the door for my mother and sister to exit towards the parking area, Keith's Moog solo began. The memory of this moment is crystal-clear to me up to this very second, giving me chills as I write this. I froze. "What, what is that?", I wondered, completely mesmerized by the sound. Fortunately, I was able to clearly hear Greg's voice singing the chorus and was able to later identify the song from the lyrics. I was hooked and obsessed. This led to repeated ELP concerts, Dick Hyman's and Walter Carlos's Moog albums, and my fascination with what I learned was a sin-the-zizz-zer (in my young mind). Keith, in this moment, inspired me into keyboards, to the point that I tried to construct a Von Yanko modification of the upright piano which I had begged my mother to purchase. This directly led to creating mechanical drawings (no CAD back then), to fabricating & designing parts in a machine shop, which began my life-long career as an engineer for research groups. Thank you forever Keith, you inspired and changed my life. (tears)

As musicians we try to put emotion into our playing. This gives us glimpse of what Rachel feels ALL THE TIME. Unabashedly, she invites us into her joy, her pain, her grief. She touches our souls just as Keith Emerson touched Rachel's. How lucky we were to have Keith, and how lucky and blessed we are to have Rachel's incandescent spirit. She is an incarnated Muse that walks among us.

ELP did play with an Orchestra when they toured their Works album. A full orchestra would rise on a hydraulic platform, while the three band members played on a smaller stage beneath the orchestra. The show was far to costly and they were forced to drop the orchestra about half way through the tour. By the time I saw them, the orchestra was already dropped, but I guess they had already paid for the hydraulic stage riser, because the three ELP members rose out of a hole in the stage in a cloud of smoke at the start of the show. I read that they lost a lot of money on that tour, because of the decision to include a full orchestra for every gig. I think they finally sort of broke even, when they cut costs, but that was only after months of touring and playing their guts out for every show.

I saw them @ Hartford Civic Center -- Works tour- in 1977. Just a couple nights after they had abandoned the orchestra. They still rocked it. Loved it. Sometime later, the roof of the Hartford Civic Center collapsed, and I always believed it was --- because the Hartford show was one of the 1st (maybe the 1st?) shows ELP did that year without the orchestra. Yep.

Absolutely wonderful to see such love and affection for Keith. I am delighted to say I got the chance to see ELP play live in the 70s. RIP Greg and Keith.

Such a talented musician you are Rachel. I cried right along with you. The Endless Enigma is and always will be one of the great pieces of works by ELP . Thank you so very much for keeping their music alive.

As I watched this for the first time, I think I was looking through that image of Rachel and seeing the face of Keith in my head and then she and I collapsed in a heap inside at the same time .I then hurt for her. She knew him personally, as a friend. I did not have that pleasure. She lost a friend who brought an art so vivid and personal to her. I hurt for her. Rachel, please carry it forward. Take your music to whatever heights he has inspired in you and we will be with you the whole journey. I am so sorry he has left. I am so, very....

Hard to imagine 72 people gave this a thumbs down. Emerson was perhaps the best keyboardist/performer in his day, bit in my history. And this woman nails it. Give her 5 ups.

Keith was great, but To make those claims is just silly. You don't listen to many keyboard players then.

I just adore Rachel Flowers. Jeez, I wish Keith were still around. So many loved him. Goshdarn social media swill. Man, my heart go's out to the beautiful and talented Rachel. This was tough on her. But, I think she has Keith's spirit guiding her to safety for a good, long, happy life. She is wonderful in her own light. Thanks for this clip. I cried a bit myself.

I'm not much of a "celebrity buff", but Keith Emerson is one of the (very) few people I never knew personally about whom I can say my world has been a better place because he lived. Watching this really stoked the emotions I feel about his passing and the heartbreaking pain he felt leading to it. I see from these comments I'm hardly alone in this sentiment and feel a link and gratitude to you all for sharing that.
