I’m voting for Manfredd Mann, because anyone who can get away with playing Chopsticks while covering Bruce Springsteen must be a badass.  Although he did a pretty good job on “For You”.

Emerson and Wakeman are of course obvious choices.  Of course all the other Yes keyboard players were pretty damn good.

Nicky Hopkins

Billy Preston

Elton John

Does Ray Charles count?

Ben Folds

My 13 year old self would probably nominate Jon Lord, Don Airey, and whoever else was in that sphere.

I saw Christine McVie on her last tour, and thought she was a lot better than I remembered her being.

Michael MacDonald
