[@beawsbiz]

Not many Rock keyboardists who can also write in the classical genre. About as progressive as you can get. JON LORD.

[@BackingTrackCenter]

Jon Lord was truly a master at bridging rock and classical music! His ability to fuse the two genres makes him one of the most progressive keyboardists of all time. He definitely deserves recognition, maybe in Part 2! Thanks for the reminder!

[@mab]

The master of the inverted 5th

[@massimomarchesin8708]

Vero JON LORD rip è importante anche in chiave progressive è grazie a LUI che i DEEP PURPLE sono anche un po' PROG ora c'è DON AIREY ed anche Lui ha con se un bagaglio progressivo con COLOSSEUM 2 e RAINBOW. E poi HUGH BANTON altro straordinario KEYBOARD MAN con i VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR di PETER HAMMILL!!!!;! Grande nel creare tappeti tessiture DARK inquietanti gotiche classiche barocche sinfoniche..... insomma un altro GRANDE mago della tastiera prog rock!!!!!!!!!!!

[@runepedersenDK]

Tony Banks was a master composer too! This makes him my all time favorite! 1970’s Genesis was so emotional, creative and amazing. Today we have bands like Porcupine Tree to enjoy (and Steven’s solo work), but Tony is still my all time favorite.

[@BackingTrackCenter]

Tony Banks is truly unmatched for many, especially in Genesis’s classic era. Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson keep that prog spirit alive. What’s your favorite ’70s Genesis album?

[@runepedersenDK]

@@BackingTrackCenter There so many beautiful ones to choose from. My number one, is not shared among so many prog fans - it's Nursery Cryme by Genesis - this one is just so emotional, compared to their (still very very good) later works. Seven Stones from this album, has an amazing odd emotional/melancholic beauty, with the most fantastic mellotron/guitar/drums final - almost driving me to tears. Trespass and Trick are 2&3, Lamb, Foxtrot and "In the Court..." by KC are next.

Il loro periodo più PROG mi piace abbastanza!!!!!!!!!!

[@richardmitchell8213]

Kansas is so underrated in my opinion. The thing about Kansas was composing great songs. The guys you mentioned are great musicians, but Kansas has the best songs in my opinion. Their musical talent is without question some of the best progressive rock has ever seen. Listen to 2 for the Show and just let it sink in. It’s incredible how great they really were.

Finnaly someone remembered Kerry Minnear! But still missing a top ten video including Hugh Banton.

[@tomtrana3449]

Very good choice!

[@Normann.Hillesheim]

Kerry Minnear is my favourite Keyboardist not only in "Prog" - much more tasteful than Emerson and Wakeman, in my eyes. He had studied classical composition, which you can hear in the choir and string quartet arrangements written by him for Gentle Giant songs.

[@dianewilson7415]

@@Normann.Hillesheim Another vote for Kerry Minnear, and I was glad to see him as the first keyboard player in this video. He had a degree in music from the Royal College of Music, and had a passion for renaissance and medieval music, as you can hear in so many GG songs. Minnear and Ray Shulman wrote most of Gentle Giant's music.

[@daniminnesota8879]

My 3 are Wakeman, Emerson & Jon Lord.

[@tschieding]

Glad you mentioned Mike Ratledge. Soft Machine doesn't get enough credit for advancing (and even originating) progressive rock. I saw them with Jimi Hendrix in 1968, and came away extremely impressed. Their first album is one of my favorites of all time.

I would say he is a great composer, one of very best keyboard composers of prog rock.

Nice to see Vangelis get some love. (It’s Van-GAL-is, btw). His soundtracks are outstanding, none better than “Blade Runner.” Most of his work was improvised on the spot while watching clips of the movie he was working on. He wasn’t a fan of the limelight, didn’t care for the music industry, with reason: his 1970 album “L'Apocalypse des animaux” (for the film of the same name) was blocked from release for over two years because a music executive didn’t like one track on it (“Création du monde”).
