Subj: Any news on Keith Emerson?

Does anyone know what Keith Emerson is up to these days? Does he plan
to form/join any groups? I know he has written some soundtracks, but does
he plan any albums (either solo or with others)?

I really miss that guy!!

I miss KE too.  With the Dregs disbanded, the progressive music scene is
abysmally dry.

Aside from the soundtracks he's done (Nighthawks and Inferno) he also has
a non-soundtrack called "Honky".  It's on Bubblegum records (no foolin)
which means it's very hard to find.  But "Honky" has some truly brilliant
moments on it.  In particular, there is a typical Emersonesque counterpoint
arrangement of "Bach on the Mast" that is every bit as awesome as the 2nd
movement from Karn Evil 9 and the fugue in the "Endless Enigma".

If you're an Emerson fan you should have this album, but good luck finding
it.
