New Doc on Nicky Hopkins on the Way - Keyboardist Played on Beatles' 'Revolution' and Fabs Solo Albums

Rolling Stone teases "Session Man," a new documentary on prolific keyboardist Nicky Hopkins, which is set for release on Amazon Prime and other platforms Nov. 5.

Details:

The haunting intro on the Rolling Stones‘ “Monkey Man,” the galloping keyboard solo on the Beatles‘ “Revolution,” the piano that anchors the Who‘s “The Song Is Over,” and countless other indelible classic-rock moments were all the work of one man: session keyboardist Nicky Hopkins. A classically trained player from Middlesex, England, who somehow also played like he had been raised in churches in the American South, Hopkins performed on nearly every Stones album from 1967 to 1981, was a founding member of the Jeff Beck Group, and played on solo albums by all four Beatles, among many other accomplishments.
