While Lake supplied the voice and, I suppose, the hits, the entire sound of the band was based around Emerson's keyboards.

Gotta go with Greg Lake. As a further example I give you Still from the Pete Sinfield album of the same name.

They were extraordinary musicians, all three of them.!
But for the sake of this poll I'll go with Carl Palmer. I mean, he can't be credited enough for his jaw-dropping drumming on their first five albums, so it seems unfair that he should be trailing behind. Edited by Capt Fongsby - March 01 2012 at 18:22 |

I think Emerson would've been unbearable to listen to without Lake's sense of melody and great voice.

I think they're all fabulous musicians but went for Carl Palmer cause he has got the fewest votes !

EMERSON of course is the best. He c r e a t e d music ; Lake is good but he's just a performer !
Who's greater - Mozart or pianists of genius that e x e c u t e d HIS compositions??
P.S. I don't compare Emerson with Mozart / Edited by Varon - September 24 2010 at 15:29 |

Very difficult to choose a favourite when the 3 are very talented musicians and awesome at what they do, but I went with Greg for that voice. |

All of them are giants. My choice is Lake only because he sang to my favourite album, which is not an ELP album (not difficult to guess though)...

Creatively speaking the 75% was probably fair enough with Lake about 20% and Carl 5%. Emerson's decline as a composer after 1977 certainly killed ELP. But I still believe that Carl Palmer was more important simply because there were few drummers who could have coped with Emerson's compositions. Jon Hiseman perhaps but he was too jazzy perhaps for Emersons ideas.
At the end of the day its a fun poll. ELP were a great band and all three were as equally important so 33.33% (recurring) is the correct answer!
