I met Greg Lake at a 7-11 in Tucson, Arizona 1988. He was buying a Buritto. He knew I recognized him and said "hey, the Buritto is the only reason I come here. Get you one it's on me mate". I did and thanked him. He signed an autograph for me on a piece of paper and I still have it to this day. Great guy..
When I want to be alone and still leave I put on " take a Pebble" followed by Lucky Man, and the finale From the Beginning! I'm not thinking Uncle Albert ,Stones, by the which ones pink or get the Led out !...........only ELP!
I first heard King Crimson on Clyde Clifford’s Beaker Street back in 1969. Went out and bought the album the very next day. Here I am in 2024 at 70 years old and still listen to this almost daily. I am so glad I came of age during this period to experience all the creativity in music that occurred. RIP Greg Lake, you had the voice of an angel.
So moving, I'm 64 and feel that my life is moving to its end.. I'm crying as I listen to this music & lyrics. What a beatiful voice Greg had. Today's music doesn't move me . I wonder how his family is getting on without Greg? This poem/ song is a classic. So much wisdom in its lyrics. King Crimson was a little before I discovered Greg Lake or ELP. I hope Greg's spirit is at rest or with Keith creating music on a heavenly plane. 🙏 😢❤ I'm broken hearted about his death. His music has a sense of melancholy about it, which makes it stand our above tge rest!!!!
We lived through amazing times, tried to Heal the World and were laughed at. There is no comfort in knowing we were Right, only a Deep Sadness over what could of been...
I had forgotten how beautiful his voice is. A master of inflection and emotional content. 68 with health issues but our generation can't let that kind of stuff get us down. We are unique indeed.
The fate of man is in the hands of fools. No truer words were spoken. Greg had such a magical voice that could draw you into the song . Saw KC once and ELP once and those two shows were flat out magical. I saw The Beatles live as a kid and Hendrix live as a teenager and those were awesome but KC and ELP and Frank Zappa were on a much higher level. Greg, Robert Fripp and FZ influenced me a lot as a guitar player.
What a gifted voice. Been listening to this song for 50 plus years. Remember...these guys were likely in their early twenties when this was produced. Absolutely amazing words and vocals. Thanks KC.
To Robert Fripp and RUclips:please, please keep this version of Epitaph posted. In this single song...all of the great talents of King Crimson are encapsulated and blended to perfection. From the skillful mixing...to the power of Greg’s voice...to the profound lyrics, this version honors all the members of a team of young men who cared about this world. And that concern haunts us...even now. Thanks.
@@limptoast That is going to depend on who owns the copyright on this recording as Greg has a credit on the song via KC, but this could even be a KC out take from the Wessex Studio sessions as the 50th anniversary edition of ITCOTKC contains a lot of out takes and solo studio dubs
Saw King Crimson on their first US tour along with Procol Harum At the East town theater in Detroit Sat front row center balcony Concert chiseled in my mind and soul eternally Remember them doing this song distinctly along with the court of the Crimson King Beyond words to describe how good it was!!!!!! DLT
2024 and still listening to this greatest take on Epitaph, only greg lake can do that. i may not from his era since i'm only 24, but still.. this is a great song
@@LucidTurtle A most beautiful man. Lyrics and songs truly the one and only. Producer extraordinary. But that God given voice, with all other talents..well? But remember..addiction to cigarettes (up to 3 packs a day) ends up leaning the scale against all that was so Beautiful...and loved...
Greg was way ahead of his times...this dong was from the late 60's early 70's...what great times fir music...the very best and never again to be..this song fits today right on the money..he way america is going we'll all be crying...especially fir our children.......God help us. .these are Evil times..in which we live....
As a young Lad, myself and a buddy were traveling from the SF Bay to Pensilvania and herd advritisment for a Live show in the Poconos Mountains and said what the heck. Well we made in what seemed like the middle of the night and found our selves right under the stage. Just intimate to hear ELP And this is the song Greg Lake was singing. Floored me! Here I am just shy of 64 and I'm Crying...
Nobody could sing this like Greg Lake...the best voice in Rock music, one of a kind. Loved his singing since the first time I heard In The Court of the Crimson King in 1969. RIP, Greg...a gentleman with a golden voice and a guitar and bass virtuoso.
2022 and this song is still a masterpiece. I miss Greg and this song can only EVER be sung by him. No one could ever come this close to Greg’s perfection. Rest In Peace, Greg. You are missed! This version is everything.
Greg Lake would have cast a giant shadow if this had been the only song he ever sang. But he did much, much more. It's just amazing that young men barely in their 20's made such a work of art that stands the test of time.
I was thinking the same thing! How beautiful and young they are and how they have the most creative music!! Unbelievable! I just tapped into ELP (last week) and this group's other work for the first time. For me, it's like a brand new band to SEE & LISTEN to. A nice and fantastic choice of what we call music, instead of this disgusting demonic-filled noise that only praises their goat god of today's generation And it's so sad and strange that 2 of these unbelievable creative people are no longer with us. It's also greatly appreciated to hear and see videos of them throughout the years. They have grown into fine men with their voices still captivating and intense! That's another comment for another day! Didn't mean to write so much. Words are not enough to describie them and their own individual talent. God bless them and their families.
I really loved hearing Greg sing and play..his voice is unparalleled. Miss him alot. Regret I never had the chance to see him live. But I have King Crimson AND all ELP albums in my ancient collection.
When will humans learn that this world and each other are all we have. this song can relate to the status of our world. No matter what year since it's recording, When I was 15 I heard the album Brain Salad Surgery and instantly fell in love with ELP. Then about 3 years later a friend turned me onto King Crimson. I never knew Greg Lake was with them before ELP. I am a guitarist and can't imagine any song Greg Lake sung can be covered. Especially this song.
Such a beautiful song. And no one could sing this song like Greg Lake! Others have tried but they are pale imatations. He had the pure silver voice of an Angel.
Agree 110% with you! Only Greg Lake can sing this song like no one else will be able! Seen Greg perform 2 times when He was with ELP in 1977 & 1978 when I was 15 and 16 years old, one of the greatest concert experiences of my life!
I saw Greg in Milan in 1973, as part of the incredible trio EL&P. What a musician and singer! The compositions of both KC (first two albums) and ELP could not be so deep moving without his voice. One of the best of Rock History to date, plus the bass lines particularly with EL&P so brilliant.
My father passed a year ago tonight. I made my way to the cemetery to honor him. As I start the car this song came on. It was so perfect. The night so beautiful with an Arizona sunset. I did a lot of crying. I miss you daddy.
ONLY the mastermind Greg Lake can sing this song. Absolutely no one else can attempt to cover this, this is a one of a kind performance!!!!!! Simply stunning
@@dustyjukebox7707ahh no it's not...i caan cover it perfectly because i have a very similar voice texture and range to Greg. The true genius isn't singing it uniquely, but creating this beautiful masterpiece that no on3 else coul ever had
Love this version....love greg lake..grew up with him... Seen king crimson live many times..even with john wetton...greg was the best...miss you greg...rest in peace like your great music..
I now see clearly what man has done to his fellow man! This song predicted the world we have today, and he wrote this when I was 20 and he was in his early 20's! Now I'm in my 70's and cry for what the governments of the world have done to it and all of us! So much perversion, greed and stupidity! I loved this song when I was young! So beautiful, tragic!
He said he was blessed to be a singer. My opinion so young with a grown man's voice. We all were blessed to hear him. Husband and I saw elp in Chicago when they had a full orchestra with them. Amazing!
el año 1993...lo vi en un concierto en Chile....fui con mi esposa que tenía 7 meses de embarazo...fue extraordinario verlos en vivo....ya era un fan en esa época de ELP....hoy, al igual que muchos que escriben aquí...tengo 67...y lamentablemente nadie hace este tipo de música....hay sólo antimusica....escuchar esta música....me transporta no sólo al pasado...me lleva a un nivel de conciencia muy elevado....esa es la diferencia entre éstos grandes músicos, llamados Monstruos del rock sinfónico, creativos en extremo....su música, ahora es Clásica, trascendental....y pensar que pudimos crecer juntos y escuchar ahora estas creaciones, es un verdadero Oasis....para el alma....
These artists will forever be remembered, in Heaven and earth. Never realized the scope of Greg's vocal unlike I grew up. His is extraordinary. For any generation.
When everything is in shambles and these recordings are the relics that survive, they'll be trying to reverse engineer the music to try to understand how it was done, in an effort to duplicate the artistry of it. But we're here today and these artists existed in our own time and we can't duplicate it.
Capolavoro immortale dei King Crimson con la voce stupenda di Greg Lake che ora canta nell' aldilà. Una lirica tra le più belle e malinconiche mai scritte. ad ogni riascolto, la stessa sensazione. Immensa!!
Greg Lake was an amazing singer.With such voice, strong and very open expression that makes us wonder that, in fact he's unique and probably was capable to go furter...Anyway Keith and Greg they 're somewhere else above the clouds...and that makes me very sad. for everything they offer during all those years since the first album I but in 1970 at 16. I can't support other kind of music from actual generations...Im to old to rock in roll but still young to listining almost all those genius from 50's...60's and 70's and I now that makes me feel calm and apreciate with attention great lyrics and the complexity of good masterpieces. I do miss them very much...RIP all of you in hope that we will be together somehow above the galatic clouds somewhere else🙏
I grew up listening to such amazing artists. Made me think alot about life. Such truth portrayed by such young hearts. Even then. They foresaw what this world will become. But, we can always have hope. God is among us. And I believe that Greg realized that in the end.
This is brilliant I bought this album when it came out and not knowing any thing about the band. I seen the cover and was blown away by the artwork so I had to buy it. I have most of their albums. Brilliant band songs and lyrics are amazing. All the musos are top guys. Absolutely spellbinding. Can't fault the talent on these albums.
Listen to this video, while watching a video showing nuclear bombs going off...............very powerful. Greg Lake had such a one of a kind majestic and angelic voice. And this song with it's amazing lyrics...........truly spellbinding and thought provoking. Greg Lake and Pete Sinfield made such great a team, and the 1969 King Crimson was truly lightning in a bottle, a once in a lifetime event.
I think there are videos here on youtube, including a free conert from the late sixties in Hyde Park. The sixties are a bit of a haze to me but I'm pretty sure I was there!
That would be nice, but as a consolation, check out (if you haven’t seen it) the live version of Greg performing C’est la vie, with Keith accompanying him on accordion. Might just bring you to tears - just about does for me, every time.
Yes this is is a really great song and wonderfully performed by a group of virtuoso musicians. I always thought that this was their stand-out song, even better than 21st Century Schizoid Man. Thats ony good for drving. This is good old stoners' music
I'm so grateful to the musician who re-created King Crimson's music for this version. I think his name is Michael. His video with the music set to "The Book of Eli" footage was fantastic and I wish the copyright holders would allow him to put it up again. I would think it stimulates sales of both the King Crimson album and the movie. The music and movie footage went so well together.
MAGIC !! tried to compose something similar (same chord sequence) but have decided to cast the project aside, while listening to this version again, what a voice !! DPESN P Muito Obrigado
I believe this is the original vocal track laid over different instrumentation. Sometimes the vocal is ahead of the music. Then they cut in a segment from ELP's live album.
I met Greg Lake at a 7-11 in Tucson, Arizona 1988. He was buying a Buritto. He knew I recognized him and said "hey, the Buritto is the only reason I come here. Get you one it's on me mate". I did and thanked him. He signed an autograph for me on a piece of paper and I still have it to this day. Great guy..

What a beatiful voice Greg had.
Today's music doesn't move me .
I wonder how his family is getting on without Greg?
This poem/ song is a classic.
So much wisdom in its lyrics.
King Crimson was a little before I discovered Greg Lake or ELP.
I hope Greg's spirit is at rest or with Keith creating music on a heavenly plane. 🙏 😢❤

This seems to be a well mixed live version, he sings a bit of tarkus from ELP at the end so I'm assuming he wasn't in king crimson at the time.
Ditto :)
I agree my favorite version also

No doubt the top voice in rock. And a great producer. A very unique voice .
He has an astonishing voice. This groupe/band is strongly instrumental. No other like them.
Lovely Grand, and very unique.

That would be nice, but as a consolation, check out (if you haven’t seen it) the live version of Greg performing C’est la vie, with Keith accompanying him on accordion. Might just bring you to tears - just about does for me, every time.
Total beauty; such depth, the voice and the message.
Yes this is is a really great song and wonderfully performed by a group of virtuoso musicians. I always thought that this was their stand-out song, even better than 21st Century Schizoid Man. Thats ony good for drving. This is good old stoners' music
Greg is still alive.
Gods cant die.
Perfect song remembering the events of Dec 7, 1941.

Fifty two years later and this song is even more relevant. James Keeney
best song ever....
His voice!
Spooky and melancholic and beautiful song.
This same version was on youtube with a brilliant video put together with clips from The Book Of Eli. It VANISHED... 😢
Immortal masterpiece🎸
Perfection, RIP Greg ❤✌❤
Why is this song perfect for the year 2020?
Just what I was thinking!
Right!?!
His music is timeless. That's one reason.
Song reflects every year I've been alive
Epic of all time
Przepiękna wersja, po tylu latach słuchania odkrywam na nowo, znałem tylko 8,5min.utwory. Cudo!!
Bonjour,
Musicalement, vocalement, une des plus belle plage musicale au monde
Une sublime musique, une beauté féerique
😪😔😔😔
Tout a fait d accord.magnifique balade .voix .Harmonie.
Best version.
the best version literally.
I like it more because the instruments sound clearer
I believe this is off the original album.
@@tommiharrell9958 i keep hearing this, the kc started actually posting the album, I dont know what to think... still love this one tho
@@tommiharrell9958 This is actually a MIDI.
I'm so grateful to the musician who re-created King Crimson's music for this version. I think his name is Michael. His video with the music set to "The Book of Eli" footage was fantastic and I wish the copyright holders would allow him to put it up again. I would think it stimulates sales of both the King Crimson album and the movie. The music and movie footage went so well together.
Amo demais essa interpretação do Greg Lake.
MAGIC !! tried to compose something similar (same chord sequence) but have decided to cast the project aside, while listening to this version again, what a voice !! DPESN P Muito Obrigado
King Crimson Live at the Fillmore East November 21&22 1969 original recording
I believe this is the original vocal track laid over different instrumentation. Sometimes the vocal is ahead of the music. Then they cut in a segment from ELP's live album.
What a spirit
I’m still listening and loving his darling voice.❤ 2023 here!!! ❤
No one will ever replace him (Magical) Will transcend time
