One of a few organist that could make you not believe what you were hearing. I was blessed to know him personally and experience the late Bishop William Abbney and Craig Tyson at Bethel P.C. of Grand Rapids. A church that also produced the Debarge family, Dr. Marvin Sapp, Debra Perry, and others.
@yamaho5 Guess you've never heard of Rev. Charles Nicks, Rudolph Stanfield, Min. Thomas Anthony Whitfield, Darryl Houston, Derrick Jackson (of Memphis, TN) just to name a few. Bolden & Twinke were/are great, but i can't agree w/the statement that organ playing has been the same since.
I commented on Craig about 2 years ago. I am Stan The Man with the Gospel Medley. Guys, Craig and I would talk about other great musicians such as L.G. Scott and of course his friend Timothy Carpenter. As I stated before, Craig was one of God's best musicians. I am not here to put anyone down, but all I have to say is that Craig's playing speaks for itself. I have played with some of the best Hammond organists (jazz and gospel) who were legends, but Craig was one indeed. We love you Craig!
Alfred Bolden was the alpha and omega of gospel hammond playing, until Twinkie came along and I ain't been the same since. I wish someone would put some of his music here.

I hate to say it, but a woman, Twinkie Clark puts us all in the shade with her tasteful but exciting playing. Brava Twinkie.
