I was listening to some of the other videos on the right side of the screen.

Gelu Music - ONE MAN BAND, Piano& Keyboard Player, Vocalist/

We seem to be at the point where OMB's now are generic. If you just play an instrument and sing, boom-bang, you're a one-man-band. Even if you just CARRY a keyboard, or a guitar, or a harmonica around, you're considered a one-man-band. If you're an amateur or a home-player, you're considered a one-man-band.

When OMB's first appeared on the scene, they were the cat's meow. Knew their stuff and almost every player was outstanding and unique in their presentation and playing skills. Now it's "one size fits all." Just play and sing and you automatically join the ranks.

That is why the OMB doesn't get the same respect or adulation that he did in the early days when it was novel and a useful tool for professional players to expand on their talents.

Anyone wonder why manufacturers aren't making many professional keyboards now? It's a simple lack of professional players and professionalism in the field itself.

You can tell "Gelu Music - ONE MAN BAND, Piano& Keyboard Player" really hit a nerve in me!!!
