I love the sound of the Hammond Organ



I like this guy he is from Sweden and sounds like his voice is a sub-woofer! LOL I love this stuff.

All bands should carry a Hammond B3 even if they don't play one....


I think it builds character....

I agree we hauled one around for years with 2 Leslie cabinets. It really makes a band sound fuller.

Mark you are leaning against a very open door here !, i adore the sound of those things.
The little instrumental gig i do from time to time has a great organist involved, through all the Tele and sax mayhem going on here that thing just purrs away underneath it all.

Small pub recorded direct to iPod

I too must comfess a love for the hammond organ. I can remember when i heard deep purple for the first time (a live recording), I thought Jon Lord's Hammond was a string quartet! It just sounded so full must have been how it was recorded i guess, getting that hollow sound.

Having a B3 in the band is like having a whole other band in the band.

Joey DiFrancesco & Gatton did a blues song and the first time I heard it I thought it was a Roy Buchanan song I hadnt heard yet.

They played great together!

If you like your Hammond on the jazzy side, and want to go a bit further; check out Larry Young's "Unity", recorded by Blue Note in 1965. It's Larry on Hammond and "feet bass", Woody Shaw on trumpet, Joe Henderson on tenor, and Elvin Jones on drums. A masterpiece!

Little known fact. The Hammond organ's tone wheel was closely modeled after the tone wheel of an early electronic synthesizer, the Telharmonium. Built during the 1890 to 1910 or so, the instrument weighed 200 tons and had a coal-powered generator. It resided in the basement of a building in NYC and transmitted music over phone lines.

one of the key memories I'll take to my grave is visiting a keyboard player in a little full-gospel church one afternoon while he was rehearsing on the B3. I've never had such an experience since. amazing. =jason

...Don Patterson,Dr. Lonnie Smith...

...the former a deeply compositional,and funky player,and the latter,funky as it can be!!!...Lonnie Smith's live album,"Move Your Hand",has a deep groove cut called "Layin' in the Cut",and another great album called "Turning Point"...I'm just a HUGE fan of the unheralded Don Patterson(respected by musicians,but not as well known to the general public)...Don has an album,"These Are Soulful Days"(a trumpeter,Cal Massey's tune),that has a guest appearence by Pat Martino,and you should hear THAT!!!...Charles Earland,Sonny Phillips(both with tenor player,Houston Person)...absolutely "Brother" Jack McDuff!!!...aforementioned Larry Young has a unique compositional style...also check out the English organist,Graham Bond (he had a band with Ginger Baker,Jack Bruce,AND John Mclaughlin!!!...sheeesh!!!)...Chester Thompson with "T.O.P" and Santana...also,"Honky Tonk" with Bill Doggett (Billy Butler performing the iconic guitar part),and Jose Roberto Bertrami with Brasilian band "Azymuth",AND Hermeto Pascoal (arguably one of the greatest musicians,ever)...add Swedish legend,Merit Hemmingson...lot's of capable folks,Now go find 'em!!!...
