Pop group nixes politics in music
Emerson Lake and Palmer reject using music to push political beliefs. Greg Litke criticizes musicians who sway audiences, recalling Paul McCartney's cautionary note. Keith Emerson cites flag burning and assassinations as reasons to stay focused on musicianship. The trio, voted Melody Maker's top international group for 1971, emphasizes musical prowess over gimmicks.
