Yup.  I recently bought a couple of their albums, one on vinyl (because I could) one on CD.  Superb!  Time to listen to them again.

Will remember him mostly for the first Crimson record. Listening to "Epitaph" will have an even more dramatic feel. Never been a big ELP fan though this was clearly his:

Yes.

There was a brief flirtation between Hendrix and ELP but it never materialized.  Fascinating to consider the possibilities.

The talent of the musicians between King Crimson and ELP is mind blowing.
