I particularly like Eddie Jobson's work with UK and his stuff with Zappa. And I don't think Kevin Moore ever used a Moog.

     The fact that Jan Hammer and Patrick Moraz are not on this
poll, but a lightweight like Peter Bardens is show it up for what it
is...a sham...and a farce...a charade...and a masquerade of a
poll...a bamboozle...a cheap counterfeit...and that's not all!!!...
you'll hear from my second!!!

You're right, Jan Hammer and Patrick Moraz should be on any poll about moog players. However overall I'd still go for Uncle Rick.

Emerson is the one!

Hmmm???

 

Tony Banks is an Arp 2000 guy...

 

Peter Bardens done some amazing things on the Moog...

Jan Hammer out classes every one here, but as one poster said on a another thread [this is an progressive rock site]

So I would have to go with Keith Emerson followed by Wakeman then Moraz...

Hey, thus far I always seemed to vote for the winner in Fraja's polls.

Not this time though, sinds my fave Moogist (Rick Wakeman) seems to lose from Keith Emerson. That can change though, and anyway, it was a tough choice. Emerson and Wakeman are almost even for me. 

Wakeman is the Moogman for Moogtron this time.

Moore, not a moog player, Rudess also isn't and neither Banks! Pretty certain Lord didn't play moog either, he's not known for his synth work in particular anyway. That leaves:-

Bardens

Emerson

Wakeman

I choose Emerson!

Mr SCHULZE and his prestigious gallery of modular / non modular Moog synth (minimoog, polymoog)

abstract, cerebral, epic "synth" works. It's fare better than the boring strings / symphonic approach & imitation of Wakeman

Would you say that Mahavishnu's Birds of Fire is not
progressive rock? Or his playing with Jeff Beck? Or his solo
work? I thought progressive was about knocking down the
barriers between rock, jazz, and classical. I think except for
Emerson, who has a totally distinctive style, Hammer plays
circles around any of those other guys, Alan Gowen too, rest
his soul.

I voted Keith Emerson without seeing the others. He is the best.
