One of the really great keyboard players not mentioned yet, Czeslaw Niemen.

Rick Wakeman
Rick Wright
Rick Battersby
Richard Davies
Richard Barbieri
Richard Tandy

Tony Banks
Tony Kaye
Anthony Phillips
Tony Pagliuca
Tony Mueller

Keith Emerson
Keith Cross
Keith Heffner

Any more ideas? :P

Not to be overlooked is Cyrille Verdeaux, a notable French keyboardist and composer who was the leader of Clearlight and the Delired Cameleon Family.



In Clearlight, Verdeaux collaborated with another must-be-mentioned keyboardist, Englishman Tim Blake, known for his work with Gong and Hawkwind, for which both he gave another dimension and who released two magnificent solo albums: "Crystal Machine" in 1977 and "Blake's New Jerusalem" in 1978. Blake also performed extensively across Europe and Japan.

The Psychedelic Ensemble
Matt Baber
Paolo Botta
Donald Fagen
Adam Holzman
Alan Gowen
James Strain
Pascal Globensky




Good call with Adam Holzman. Played with Miles Davis, so you know he has the goods. Obviously, probably more known for playing with Steven Wilson these days. And speaking of Wilson, I don't see that Richard Barbieri (Porcupine Tree) has been mention.

Edit: I see he has been mentioned.

You obviously missed the point of this thread. ;)

But you missed Rick Van Der Linden anyway.
