None of 'em. As close as I would get is Moraz. the rest of 'em were too damn flashy and emotionless, IMO. My pick is Geddy Lee. YES...I know that it was his 2nd instrument, but, I think he kicks major ass on keyboards. ------------- Some world views are spacious, and some are merely spaced... |

Of those listed, definitely Wakeman, as he had the ability to combine flashiness and showmanship with emotion and subtlety. However,for those not listed, I also love John Tout's extremely tasteful classically derived keyboard work, Ken Hensley, Jon Lord and Vincent Crane's monolithic organ work and the pure class of Pete Bardens and Dave Sinclair. |

I wasn't trying to be funny, SnowDog..I was being serious. Lee created some serious melodies with that keyboard, which is why I like most of their 80's stuff. ------------- Some world views are spacious, and some are merely spaced... |

Wakeman as my top choice. Wright and Emerson are awsome though. So is Rudess. |

Emerson, for the wizardry. But I really love John Tout from Renaissance, and have to say that Richard Wright is one of the most underrated musicians in the prog world. Tony Pagliuca (Le Orme) deserves a mention too. |

| Gotta go for Wakeman, with Emerson as a close second. |

Without a doubt Emerson, followed by Moraz, Banks then Wakeman. I was
sometimes disappointed by Rick's variety on his solos and I don't feel
he had the technical ability of Emerson. He is really gifted though,
it's a tough one. |

Hmmmm. I'd have to say Tony Banks and Kerry Minnear, then some of the keyboard players that used to be in Rainbow (Dave Stone, Don Airey, Tony Carey).

For me its always be Rick Wakeman, followed closely by Keith Emerson.

It's really surprising that Rick Wakeman has only 115 votes. It's nice that Patrik Moraz has 134 altough I prefer Rick. |
Posted By: Phil
Date Posted: December 21 2005 at 05:29
As multiple votes have been allowed in this poll, that may account for it....also for Emo getting 436 (as I write)..  |
Posted By: rudess
Date Posted: January 01 2006 at 13:36
| Without a doubt it has to be Rudess. He is technically the best by far. I somehow think that someone who has the ability to play Bach Concertos by the age of 8 is going to be miles ahead of others in his field. Although Emerson, Wakeman and Moraz are amazing players too, no doubt at all/ Kevin Moore also deserves a mention not for playing ability(although he is quite good) but for his writing ability. |
