Gregory Arthur "Greg" Phillinganes (born May 12, 1956) is an American keyboardist, singer, songwriter, and musical director based in Los Angeles, California. A prolific session musician, Phillinganes has contributed keyboard tracks to numerous albums representing a broad array of artists and genres. He has toured with notable artists such as Stevie Wonder, Eric Clapton, and Toto, served as musical director for Michael Jackson, and has released two solo albums.
Gregory Arthur Phillinganes was born on May 12, 1956, in Detroit, Michigan. He began playing a neighbor's piano by ear at the age of two, beginning lessons a few years later after his mother purchased a piano for him. He took lessons from two different instructors before his mother brought him to Misha Kotler, a Detroit Symphony Orchestra pianist who introduced the discipline and technique Phillinganes required to excel. Phillinganes credits Kotler with showing him proper hand posture and for influencing him to play with "a sense of dexterity and definition".

Style study: Manx Lullaby, arranged in the style of Pink Floyd with an alternative drum groove inspired by the great Jeff Porcaro. The drummer on the original recording is Steve Farmer who also runs an excellent drum school. 2 years ago I visited Steve in England for an exclusive 4 hour workshop and I learnt a lot! The wonderful saxophone part was played by Dave Gregory (England). Check out the full story and the original recording at http://nurseryrhymescollections.com/free-download.html
