Of all the celebrity deaths, Keith's I'm still thinking about and shocked over than Bowie, Lemmy or Prince!
I can't believe he didn't have anyone looking into him.
I don't want to start that age old debate, but I find it weirdThe Damned can reform to play their full album, when Keith was doing that live and everyone called it pretentious!
Still looking out for a Keith Emerson Special Tribute magazine, unless I've missed it!

All those journalists who have called ELP pretentious over the years just missed the point. Sure they were overblown, but there was always a strong element of satire, silly spectacle, and just plain buffoonery to ELP. How can you possibly call a guy wiping his butt with a Moog ribbon controller pretentious?

Music journalism hypocrisy. The same mentality that declares the likes of American Idiot  the finest rock album released after 2000. 
 
Cyndi Lauper, of all people, has jumped on the bandwagon and is performing her very first album, She's So Unusual, in its entirety. I haven't caught any negative press with regard to that, either.

Lemmy ?   Guy was on borrowed time, looked embalmed, surprised he lasted that long.
