If you ever get a chance, check out this young cat that plays for J Moss.  Floyd Thomas from Indiana.  Dude is incredible on all three...he's about the only cat I know that can play each in their perspective manner.  Oh yeah, Reggie Strong (Ricky Dillard) can do the same.

Yeah I know Joe.  He's been like that since I can remember.  Lance Tolbert also speaks highly of him.  I thought he was primarily a piano player though.  I've never heard him on organ.

i can play the piano but i am more comfortable on the organ because i like a lot of power. Sometimes the keys on the piano can get a little heavy after a while. You have to play harder on a piano than you would on a piano.

I started on the piano.  I didn't buy my first keyboard until this past March.
Between the three, I prefer the organ.  ;D

I know Joey Logan.....grew up with him a little.  He plays (or used to play) for Lamar Campbell sometimes.  I remember the days when he was a growing musician, but now he is REALLY good.......

I play both fluently. Some say as if I'm 2 different people. I've practice and studied both instruments, and multiple styles throughout musical history.

Believe it or not and I might get a lot of boo's but I am NATURALLY a pianist!   I didn't even want to play the organ until my mentor William "Chipper" Smith put me up there and said, "play" and the rest is history. You will see me on the piano or keyboard but just because you see me on the organ a lot doesn't mean I forgot my roots! :P

William "Chipper" Smith is my cousin. He was my biggest inspiration when I first started playing the organ. The organ is my strongest instrument, but I am pretty good on the piano.

I never really have noticed the difference between the two. (Piano and Keyboard)
I personally think I'm best on Keyboard then, Organ then, Piano. But everybody else tells me that I'm best on Organ then keyboard.

2tight i know the tolbert brothers very well; lance, ken and tyrone. trinatrine chipper is a monster. i met him with richard clean white. do you know curtis daniels as well? that dude was a nightmare to me as a youngster. i was playing and he walked in out of know where, i didn't know him at the time, and asked me why was i playing the song the same way and booted me off the organ!!!!!!!! When he started playing he blew my mind! After rehearsal he set me down and helped me.

I play all three instruments, but for some reason the piano wears me out;whereas, the keyboard and organ dont. I would have to say that Im best on 1st: organ, 2Nd: keyboard, 3rd: piano

I started off on piano and then started playing more keys than anything.  I played keys for nearly 20 years before I learned to play the organ.  I think I play them all fairly well.

The acoustic piano is my thang. I love it because of the weighted keys. Don't get me wrong the keyboard is nice but an acoustic piano teaches you hand control
