Your favorite synth (or keyboard, piano, organ) solo ? ?

What is your favorite keyboard solo?

 

And no, I don't think "Luck Man" counts. Lucky Man is one of those songs that's already in the Hall of Fame. As is the intro to "Jump."

 

Favorite Synth solo?

Favorite Piano solo?

Favorite Organ solo?

 

I still like the synth solo in "Burning Down the House" by Talking Heads. When I first heard it, my head really swivelled. In my top 5 for sure, possibly number one.

 

Favorite Piano Solo is Monk. Any Monk tune, but in particular I like In Walked Bud or 'Round about Midnight

 

Favorite Organ Solo for me (this minute) is well, hmmmm gonna have to think about that one . . so many.

the only good signature is the one on a cheque or a confession

No problem - I'm not trying to kill the thread, just thought you might like to see some of the earlier answers.

 

Some of those folks don't even hang out here any more, and many of the folks who are here now weren't around then.

 

It's all good... :thu:

< It is too late. Dave's words fall on drunken ears. 3/4 has already consumed 9/10ths of his Jack Daniels. Wait a minute . . . if 3/4 downs 9/10ths and a commuter train is heading east to west at 52mph but there are more roosters than chickens, how do you know which of the villagers on the island are telling the truth and which of the butterflies have set in motion the typhoon which will wipe out the little town of Singapore where a freight train is heading west to east at 63mph carrying 10,115 cattle whom are 90% cows and 10% bulls?

 

 

HIC!

This is obviously a trick question. The villagers are all pathological liars and the butterflies have all been wiped out by a fungus!!
There are no stupid questions but there are a lot of inquisitive idiots!

synth: Chick Corea on RTF's "Song to the Pharaoh Kings"

 

ep: Max Middleton on Jeff Beck's "Situation"

 

piano: Hilton Ruiz on Roland Kirk's "Giant Steps" (very cool choral arrangement on the melody, too)

 

B3: Keith Emerson on The Nice's "You Belong to Me"

 

and for pipe organ, I'm a real sucker for Bach's Wachet Auf (Schubler Chorale version) competently played by anyone on a decent orgel (no toasters!!!)

I played in an 8 piece horn band. We would often get bored. So...three words:

"Tower of Polka." - Calumet
