Pig has come up with more identifiable licks than anyone, and he's also the best rhythm piano player in town.
Harold Bradley (studio guitarist and Hall of Fame member)
In this free mini-course, you will learn one of Pig Robbin's most identifiable licks. This has been copied by other keyboardists in country music and in Southern gospel music as well. In the early days of recording this sound was accomplished by the piano player making two passes....one pass to play the rhythm, and another pass to play the melody. In this mini-course, I will show you how to play both at the same time.
