I personally love Derrick Jackson because of how he incorparates classical into his playing. He is also very humble. I also like the way he plays the pedals with both feet!
i'm lost in music and i hope no one ever finds me...

yup, playing with 2 feet is a must when doing classical pieces


I like them both. Though Ive never really heard Mike on the organ, and I've never really heard Derrick on the piano.

You've heard Mike on the organ.  You just probably didn't know it.

I can't really say. They both are incredibly skilled, but they both have different styles.

I can't say who's on top because I'd have to add a few more names in the equation for that arguement, but I can say they are the best at being themselves. Nobody else sounds like Derrick Jackson and nobody else sounds like Mike Bereal.

Very well put.  I agree.  Mike is a beast, I'm sure he would agree.

If these two beasts of organists say Derrick has is then that's the final word. ;)  I guess I'll have to agree with them since Waymon, Mike and Mr.Woodie were not offered in the choices.  ;D

I personally think Derrick Jackson is tops. I just recently heard him play and he's awesome.

Derrick Jackson.  I wouldn't put Mike second.

I'd say Quennel Gaskin as good or better than Derrick Jackson.

Travis Sayles is pretty ridiculous too.

I'll have to agree with you RJ. I actually think it comes down to the setting for me. Mike Bereal would absolutly be my top choice for a concert or recording, Derrick Jackson would be my first choice for a convention or conference, Quennel Gaskins would be my top choice at a musical or church service, Travis Sayles would be my top pick for a tour or traveling gig and Chris Woodie would be my top choice for skill, technique, reharm, clinics, seminars and execution of ideas. ;D

Like I said they all have their qualities, I like some in certain settings than others though. As long as they all play under the anointing I believe they can all play what is needed.

History says you're not the only one.  I'm sure all the guys listed above would kill on a recording, but Mike would definitely be the best choice.

When it comes to getting work, having the craziest runs doesn't mean much.

not even close Q. is one of the coolest cats i know but Derrick Jackson is at a level we should all try to achieve and i hope you get it........playing sick chords and runs are nice but D.J. has presence something alot of these young cats havent achieved yet.

Jonathan Dubose has presence and so does Terry Baker

What does 'presence' have to do with anything?  lol. 
Man, this ain't a popularity contest!!!!   :D

Have you seen Q's DVD? 

!!!

I didn't say anything about chords and runs...EVERYBODY who's well-known in the Gospel arena has those.   :-\

His ear, his taste, and his musicality is from another world.

But if we WERE talking about chords and runs, Quennel would still be the best out there.  Fastest, most accurate runs out there today.

Derrick Jackson is an amazing musician.  I'd put him in the top 3 Gospel Organists on the scene right now.
