Wakeman, Emerson, Banks are really my all-time favourites. A poll would be interesting including only these three. But as they are excluded from the list, it is hard to tell. I really like the piano and keyboard work of Rick Davies (Supertramp). But also of Rick van der Linden (Ekseption), John Tout (Renaissance), Peter Bardens (Camel), Keith Tippet (King Crimson), Patrick Moraz, just to name a few. But they are all not on the list, strange. I think I won't vote on this poll.  Disapprove

Very strange list, but hey it's all for fun. My vote goes to the amazing John Evan.

I saw these a few years back but have not managed to include them in my library.
I have never heard anybody utilize the pedals like that. Its amazing how much they sound like an upright bass.

Damn, Keith Tippet work with KC is awesome... my fav. from the list nowadays is Dave Stewart, sweet melodies, awesome progressions, great soloing and the guy knows how to make the organ roar.. followed by Kerry Minnear
 
Oh my lord, I almost forgot Mr. William D. Drake!!! Embarrassed

But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bear the glow
