Nicky Hopkins - Last Recording Session

[@omnipop4936]

Without ever knowing who the player was, I've always adored the piano parts in John Lennon's 'Jealous Guy' and 'Oh Yoko!', and The Rolling Stones' 'Angie', and many, many other recordings that Nicky apparently played on (I'm just now discovering him). What a wonderful musical legacy this man left us. RIP brother.

Yes i first heard of Nicky back in 1971 on John Lennon's Albums he is sadly missed, i had several of John's songs professionally transcribed for piano including Crippled Inside,Oh Yoko and Jealous Guy also got Old Dirt Road anthology and Album versions done and Oh My Love all as played by Nicky.

Thanks for posting this.

funny...i was just listening to miller's "your saving grace" album and marveling at how incredible nicky's playing was on "baby's house." i wish they would remaster and reissue those first five miller band albums.

I've spent years listening to Nicky play with Jeff Beck, the Jefferson Airplane and the Rolling Stones (e.g. Exile on Main St) but this is something quite new to me. Thanks to Joe Tansin and your shelf.

Thank you Joe!

[@carlosteran6533]

never forget your magic touch with those pianos and keyboards.....

[@DavidStevenson-pn4mf]

What an amazing piano player he was. My favourite is the track She's a Rainbow by the Stones. His playing is so precise and melodic. I would have loved to have met him. RIP Mr. Hopkins.
