Top 5 Guitar/Keyboard Double Threats

Hmm, yeah, hadn't realized Allman's multi-instrumental talents, but he's also a singer.

Here's an unusual choice: Kirk Pengilly of INXS, saxophone and guitar, good with the former and at least solid with the other.

Captain Sensible of The Damned perhaps? John Lennon was also a decent pianist. Pete Townshend? (In the studio)

Townshend could play the piano well. Did he ever play that during the band's shows?

Can't believe nobody has mentioned Steve winwood. Nothing needs to be said about his keyboard playing, he's a legend. He was always very good at the guitar. Definitely deserves to be on this list.

I hadn't noticed his guitar playing being anything special. Anyway, Winwood does not meet the criteria, because he sings lead. (I messed up by not putting "non-singing" in the title.)
