I give to you Organ Freakout, A Happening With the Mustang. I have no idea if The Mustang is the organ or the dude playing it.

Pretty catchy.

In order to keep Ohio's freakyness confined to the "Ohio Is Freaky" thread I did NOT link to the Dorothy Fuldheim version. (those who know, know)

Wow - I came to do a little hate listening and got my head turned around w/ some timeless grooves. TacoBell - a wink, for sure.
Peace, daddy-o - Deeve

No Joey Defrancesco?

He's right up there with Jimmy. Or is Jimmy right up there with Joey?

Aren't they both Philly boys?

 

[Vibroluxer]

Here's one, not an organ song I guess but the B3 makes this wonderful Eva Cassidy tune.

Here I thought you were talking about vintage organ...

I just brought this home. We are breaking up my mom and dad's family home. It is a Chicago Cottage Organ from somewhere around 1890 and has spent its life in the family. Now that's vintage.

Find albums by Jimmy McGriff, Groove Holmes, Jimmy Smith, and Jack McDuff. Those are the old guys who broke ground and tilled it with the B-3, C-3, and A-100. Back in the 70s in Indy, Johnny Blanchard and I would hit a pint of Ancient Age on a Saturday night and chord and solo to Groove Holmes organ records until the cops would stop by and tell us to shut up. Johnny said he used to play with Jack McDuff, but never produced any evidence.

Those guys had beaucoup technique, but their thing was groove and, especially, feel. They had a tactile relationship with the dynamic action and response of the Hammond manuals and could produce musical texture as well as that woody, percussive thing on the attack of the notes.

If you ever want to absolutely kill yourself practicing, try to play their organ lines at their original tempo.

John Scofield with his tune Lazy from his Groove Elation lp. One of his very best organ LPS
