Either Dave Stewart or Mike Ratledge. Too hard. No vote.

Billy Ritchie - only just made the 70s, so perhaps explains omission on the list.

I can never be objective about a poll with Keith Emerson in it
If I was to pretend he wasn't an option then probably Patrick Moraz would get my vote( amazingly fluid on hammond organ) although all the names here are brilliant

John Evan, who should be on the list in place of the 9 or 10 people no one is voting for.

Emerson for me, he just rules in every way, will always be my favorite keyboardist/pianist. Banks is pretty awesome to, the Organ break from "Apocalypse in 9/8" from "Suppers Ready" is simply to die for! You can't go wrong with a bit of Rick Wakeman, Patrick Moraz is just amazing. Jan Hammer would probably be my second favorite. Don Airey is class, Rick Wright is solid, great with atmosphere & chords, Vincent Crane is great, wonderfully cathartic style! For "Other" I'd have to say Thijs Van Leer from Focus (plus some amazing solo albums which I highly recommend!) & Eddie Jobson from the perennially underrated U.K., he was just an absolute monster on the keys!

I have to go with Kerry Minear for this one. Supreme keyboardist, although he never really showed off quick playing, he definitely played some of the most angular and complex material out of all the options.

Nothing to say here. Nothing at all. Nothing is easy.

Another one which is sadly isn't mentioned is Manfred Mann. No Earth Band fans around here?
