When the Music Slipped Away: Keith Emerson’s Story [Highlight From Episode 352]

In this episode highlight, author Bruce Pegg shares the tragic final chapter of Keith Emerson, the visionary keyboardist of Emerson, Lake & Palmer. As carpal tunnel syndrome robbed Emerson of the ability to perform at the level he demanded of himself, the struggle became unbearable, leading to his death in 2016. This is a powerful and heartbreaking look at the human cost behind musical genius — and a reminder that even legends carry unseen pain.
