Greg Lake (English Wikipedia)

Greg Lake's decision to disband the Greg Lake Band and leave the music business in 1983. Pilato, Bruce (1997). "The Greg Lake Retrospective: From The Beginning" (1997) two-CD set, 36 page booklet with interview and images. Retrieved 8 May 2020. Page 23. "Although Lake saw success on the '81 tour, which promoted the first [solo] album, by the time he had begun 1983's Manoeuvres, 'It was a weird time for me, and for the music business,' says Lake. 'I was pressured into writing songs that the record company thought radio programmers wanted to hear. Hence, there was not the passion the first album had. There were some nice ballads, but the record lacked the pure vision that a hit album needs to succeed.' After 1983, Lake took [an] extended break [from the music business]."
