" As for the new musicians, they're no slouches. "

Keith Emerson

Keith Emerson

Keith Emerson

Keith Emerson
" I don't care who I play to, as long as they enjoy listening to what I play. "

Keith Emerson

Keith Emerson
" I guess when Rick is finished with his Journey to the Centre of the Earth, then we might have a go at something. We'd like to, we're open to it, and we've been talking about it. "

Keith Emerson
" I had written movie scores, television series, played with other people. Carl had done the same with Asia, with other bands, everything. We weren't about to entrust Greg automatically with a production credit. "

Keith Emerson
" I just love playing. "

Keith Emerson
" I love England and look forward to playing and having a damn good time. Lots of happy memories and lots of good surprises. "

Keith Emerson
" I love my mother dearly, but it wouldn't be suitable for me to live with her all the time. "

Keith Emerson
" I remember that I used to mix with my friends who had brothers and sisters. I was an only child. "

Keith Emerson
