This is the second in a new series of puzzles, celebrating some of the more obscure or interesting songs by well-known artists. If you are not an aficionado of British Prog Rock, both the artist and the song are probably obscure.
The cache is not here. This is not a good place to park.
To find the coordinates for this cache, you must extract information from the Greg Lake song "Epitaph". Not all of the information is found in the lyrics. Some research may be required.
