R&P, what are some of your favorite bands that feature keyboards as a lead instrument?

Question

As somewhat of a keyboard Virtuoso myself (just ask my former bandmates), methinks I'm in a position to attest that players such as Keith Emerson, Jon Lord, and Rick Wakeman totally Pawn and Destroy all of the other keyboardists known to mankind.

BQ1: Name some bands that you feel would have sounded better had they featured keyboards.
BQ2: Do you honestly believe that I can play they keyboards, or do you think I have an overactive immagination?
BQ3: Do you think I spend too much time on here? If so, name some songs about wasting time.
BQ4: Do you think it's about time I wrote another profile explaining how I've grown tired of R&P, and that I will be leaving again?

Answer 1

I play keyboards better than darth ever dreamt of. I am 10 times the person anyone is here. I am a veritable god, you are all peons at my feet

Answer 2

Here's a few I enjoy...

Egg

Camel

Atomic Rooster

Nice

ELP

Caravan

Ekseption

Triumvirat

Bloodrock

Novalis

And many others.



It seems as though somebody here has waaayy too much time on his hands. I go away for a couple weeks, and return to this? Lol. I have never cloned anyone. Though a certain persons paranoia has lead him to believe that I have. It seems as though the 'Pied Piping R&P Whiner' is up to his old tricks again. Some things will never change I suppose. For somebody that claims to "hate Yahoo Answers with a passion that could burn out the Sun", his latest antics (cloning me twice...maybe three times?), seems to imply that he's rather obsessed with this place. I find this whole thing rather amusing in a sad sort of way :)



*Edit - Varg...you're the one who feels the need to hide behind a mask...."Rock and pop reg since jan 08 Backup account". Lol. Who are you exactly? As if we don't know. Many R&P reg's are my contacts and friends you clown. It's quite apparent that you're speaking for yourself, and a small handful of easily influenced delusional pawns. I'm only here for my love of music first and foremost, and really don't have the time for yours, or anyone elses juvenile behavior. I'd suggest that you get a life.
