May 22^nd, 2010 at 7:28pm

In the Keyboard of Nicky Hopkins

Date:    Tuesday, May 25, 2010
Time:    2:00pm - 6:00pm (PST)
Location:    KFJC 89.7 FM (Bay Area - San Francisco), Live stream at http://www.kfjc.org/netcast

Please join Amacker Bullwinkle and Deborah Grabien for a four-hour special celebrating the life, work, and jawdropping diversity of pianist Nicky Hopkins, rock and roll's most influential session player.

The show will include live on-air conversations with Pete Sears, Julian Dawson, Greg Douglass, Joli Valenti and possibly more. There's recorded conversation and commentary about Nicky with Mick Taylor, Chuck Leavell, Steve Miller and Nils Lofgren. There's a scary selection of previously unreleased music, and some classics on which Nicky played, as well.

In the Keyboard of Nicky Hopkins is the comprehensive look at Nicky, with a little help from his friends. Be there! If you can't listen live on either radio or stream, the show will be archived, as well as recorded for podcast

Don't worry, we're gonna have a special header since Monday and hyperlink from the header during the broadcast

I got the information from Deborah Grabien as we have been in contact since a long time because of Nicky Hopkins, I have been in contact with Julian Dawson too, author of the only Nicky Hopkins biography, actually only available in German but soon in English, Julian is part of the live interviews this Thursday

Didn't the "Squirrel" DJ call him "John" I didn't catch the last name. Maybe it was John Cipollina the guitarist. I think whomever it was mentioned Dino Valenti from Quicksilver Messenger Service?

That story he told was pretty illuminating. It sounded like Nicky was having a hard time in Hawaii, maybe he was sick, but it sounds like the dog in the house was getting him down, but still I was appalled that they kicked the dog for eating the roast beef, I mean no need.

It was a great show, I wish I could have caught the whole thing.
