Rock

Nicky Hopkins was one of the greatest keyboard players in rock history. He would have been 66 years old today. Unfortunately, we lost him in 1994 at age 50. Way too early.

Jackson Buck and I dedicated tonight’s program to him. This wonderful musician performed on every recording we played….two hours of Nicky Hopkins music. We only scratched the surface of his legacy. I hope you enjoy it.
