KEITH EMERSON’S DEATH Gunshot to the Head … LOOKS LIKE SUICIDE

Legendary rock keyboardist Keith Emerson’s death is being investigated as a suicide … TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us Emerson had a single gunshot wound to the head when his girlfriend found him in their home in Santa Monica.

The Emerson, Lake & Palmer co-founder had recently been suffering from a serious medical problem — a degenerative nerve issue in his right hand … according to our sources. We’re told he could only play the keyboard with 8 fingers at this point and knew it was only going to get worse.

Back in 2010, Emerson announced he had diverticulitis and had surgery to deal with it. It’s unclear if that has anything to do with his recent health problems

As a result, he was struggling with depression.

Bandmate Carl Palmer released a statement, saying, “Keith was a gentle soul whose love for music and passion for his performance as a keyboard player will remain unmatched for many years to come.”
