“Nicky Hopkins was a dear friend and iconic piano player,” notes Frampton. “No one had his wonderful touch, feel and choice of notes. I was lucky to have him play on my Somethin’s Happening record. I miss him and listen to him often. He taught me plenty.”

What Songs Did Nicky Hopkins Play On?

From the ’60s through the ’90s, Hopkins played on many of rock’s greatest songs and albums, including the Beatles’ “Revolution,” Lennon’s Imagine and the Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil.”

He started his career in the mid-’60s playing with the Who and was courted to join the band. He joined the Jeff Beck Group in 1967 and continued to record solo records and play sessions with other artists.

In 1969 he worked on Jefferson Airplane’s Volunteers album and performed onstage with them at Woodstock. He later joined the Jerry Garcia Band and Graham Parker and the Rumour. His long list of credits also includes Badfinger, Joe Cocker, Donovan, the Hollies, Harry Nilsson, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Carly Simon, Cat Stevens and Joe Walsh .

The Session Man is narrated by former The Old Grey Whistle Test host Bob Harris, who says Hopkins’ “contributions on their records made him rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest session man.” Many artists Hopkins worked with offer insight: Dave Davies, Glyn Johns, Jorma Kaukonen, Jim Keltner, Albert Lee, Nils Lofgren, Benmont Tench and Bill Wyman.
