Gregg Rolie on the Cover of Keyboard Player magazine
Gregg was recently interviewed by the UK based, Keyboard Player Magazine. Here's a link to their website, where you can check out the article!
Amazingly, despite his groundbreaking work as a keyboard player and his often copied solos from some of the biggest hits of all time ("Evil Ways", "Oye Como Va", "Black Magic Woman", to mention just a few), this is the first time Gregg's been featured on the cover of any kind of Keyboard magazine.
Long overdue!
