About
A 90-minute documentary feature film telling the story of Nicky Hopkins, the highly gifted and prolific session pianist and unsung hero: Nicky played with the likes of The Kinks, The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles as well as on all four members’ solo albums. Over 30 years Nicky contributed to over 250 albums and a vast number of single releases. His legendary piano riffs and wonderful musical motifs helped ordinary tracks become extraordinary and iconic.
Nicky’s story is told by the very musicians he played alongside and is narrated by Bob Harris, former presenter of the BBC’s Old Grey Whistle Test, who had no hesitation at the end of the film in confirming that “Nicky Hopkins’ contributions made him rock and roll’s greatest session man.
Followed by a Q&A with one of the film’s producers, John Wood
