Hammond-Slayer!

 

A lot of proggy humans love this guy. He is a LEGEND but this Legend drives me up the fukking wall.

 

Annoying Hammond Slayer! OVERKILL!

 

For me it's all about Lake and Palmer.

 

Sorry!

 

Emerson should do an Advil commercial.

If we are going to have a "Free For All" discussion on who the best keyboard players are then I have to mention Mark Kelly from Marillion.

Mark Kelly is very underrated, imo. His playing on the last Marillion album is great. He also has some great moments on the latest DeeExpus album The King of Number 33.

Your musical knowledge astounds me. DeeExpus? WTF?

 

I love Mark's early work on all of the Fish albums.

 

"Clutching At Straws" is a top 5 album of all time for me!

They're a fairly new prog band that has 2 albums. Mark Kelly joined as a studio member for the sophomore album. I guess they could be described as neoprog, but a bit heavier.

Ok! I don't know what I would do without this Forum! I would probably be rich!!!

 

I just ordered the DeeExpus cd. They also have a dvd. I ordered that too.

 

ENDLESS!!

I think his nuts were clipped a little before then.

:P Wakeman does sort of look like Nicks in that pic

Interestingly, when I've looked online for lists of best keyboard players ever, Wright usually tends to rate a little higher than Banks.

 

I'm not surprised that Banks would rate a tad higher here, however. People here love prog, and Genesis was a lot more of a traditional prog band than Floyd was.
