Guys and Gals – Happy Father’s Day Ya’ll! Hope everyone on here is taking it easy and enjoying the onslaught of summer. It’s nearly 100 degrees here today with a heat index over 105. YUCK! So, as I was taking refuge from the heat, I was cruising YouTube and I located a guy I correspond with and have bought a few backing tracks from – his name is Alan McPike. He lives in Britain and is a OMB doing it with terrific finesse (the hard way). He is an amazing player. He kicks bass, plays drum fills on a separate box with his left hand, and plays 3 keyboards. Man this guy is a talented player. Here is some YouTube footage of him performing:

This cut shows him kicking the bass pedals at an amazing pace: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqAzACFr00E&feature=channel

Here’s a cut of him playing “I’ve Got You Under my Skin”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XFwd-xu3Dw&feature=channel

He obviously has some terrific keyboards, although I am not aware of the make/models he’s using.

Hope you enjoy Mr. McPike’s work, though for him I can tell it appears to be second nature.

Have a great week!
Randy
