Great playing. The A102 was tagged as the "most hideous Hammond", however, I like the French Provincial styling of its cabinet. But that's me and I'm partial to it. Have an M-101 currently.
I've got an A-100 and a 351, also. But I can't play like that. And for what ever reason, mine doesn't have the brightness yours has in this video no matter what registrations I try. Must be it's age showing. I'll continue to use mine for the slow stuff I can play and continue to watch in awe you guys that can really make them shine.
That shorty/decorative home model 351 cab has a distinctive "thunk" to it on the bass that I like--and more mellow horn sound (from the horn being down low?)--I like it too!! Is the reverb hooked up in the Leslie?--with that 8253 kit???
@ppeterso22 Yes, the reverb separetely hooked on static Leslie channel. Not the 8253 kit. I made on the organ and leslie the today's 11 pin plugs. Read my info.
Wow yeah I got a Auto-Vary 64 hooked to my Conn # 645 Theater Organ, smooth digital sound accompanying a sweet soft and sultry Old School Tube Organ! very very good indeed! post more Video's Please! :) :) Makes me feel that i have been neglecting my CONN. lol :) :)
OMG that is one of my favorite Hammond console ever produced!!! I myself have an M-143 spinet model that I also love a lot! POST MORE!!! Great video! :-)
Just keep an Eye on Craigslist. I sometimes pick up free ones that have sat for over 20 years, give it some oil, wait a few weeks and start it up and plays fairly well, You'll want to read up on the Hammond WIKI for the proper care and feeding of these beasts before you pick them up and move them.
back again to listen. Love this video. A few months ago I told you that my Aunt could play like you. Well she passed away 3 weeks ago. Now I'll listen to you to remind me of her music. Keep it coming! It's awsome.
sir,you are an inspiration,i have viewed this clip well over 50 times ! - i have always been a fan of the hammond sound - your clip has made me want to own and play a hammond-so i have just purchased a hammond x5 and leslie 670-now i just need to learn to play ! thank you for posting this inspirational clip...loz (uk)
"Hammond Auto-Vari 64 drum machine from 1976. Connected into the Hammond A0-28 preamp phono-radio input."
I,m about to buy this drum machine, but was not aware I could plug it into the organ preamp. I have a b3 and a leslie 122. This way the drumsound will be heard in the leslie?
Have you got any other clips we can download, even just MP3s ? I can see another organ lurking there too...what's that one ??!! And do your neighbours appreciate the sound ? Keep up the good work
Well its alright, but not as good as my Technics u90......!!!! Seriously good sound and playing. I lost the clip on youtube but found it again. Absolutely marvellous, well done
Thanks. Yes. Original ABC (and M3) much more better than clones. I had these. Now complete upgraded 1936 model A and three speed Leslie142. See my further videos and Rhoda Scott in 2008.
it's nice to see that you aren't afraid to just hold a note out and really let it be heard for that beautiful tone. Great Leslie sound. (just got my 351 and 147)
Six minutes and fifty one seconds of pure heaven. That was truely impressive! I mean that was incredible. I bet that roar just shakes the whole house. A+, 100% and 5 stars from me!
HELL Yea... I played a A100 I was picking up for someone and it had a 351... Sounded Freaking Great.. From that moment on. I figured if I ever got in the position to get one in my area I would.. Love the the little jam you do .. I must be like the other guy ..what he posted...he'd said he's watched it 25 times.. I must not be that behind.. God I love that Great sound of this combination of leslie and organ..Very very Sweet.. play on.
OMG, Your awsome. Nothing like the sound of a hammond organ. Brings back memories of when my Aunt played this way back in the 70's. Made me tear up with the memories. Please post more of your great music. Could you please post you playing sweet Georgia brown? I loved to hear her play it Thanks.
Wery good....... Wery good..... Man I wich I had one Hammond...... Nothing over, nothing besides (not even a Continental, but it has it own cool sound). You got talent......
Nothing like a Hammond A100/B3/C3 with a Leslie. Rich, deep, soulful. Mix that with an channel going to a Marshall amp and you'll shake the neighborhood. ;)
nice work mate.I wet through the Royal School of music and the Sothern Music training college in London in the 80's on Jazz organ and thats as good as I heard.Nice.I had a Hammond Aurora Classic 500 until i migrated, then had to leave her behind!!
Georgia awsome tune, I sold my C-3 Hammond this winter the new B-3's are awsome hard to hear the difference, Tone Generators rule for sure, Great playing
On the organ preamp stay one silver volume box. On this box is radio-phono plug IN. I connected there with mono jack-RCA cable. This is no volume adjusted organ input.
I'd like to not challenge you - because you clearly know one or two standards But I'd love to jame with you! I'll bring along my Hammond C3 and we'll see what becomes.

Well, what a lovely Hammond world.....!
A very good Hammond organ demo.
To make short, I would say that:
- positive: good mastering of the settings that make or not the Hammond organ sound, overall good feeling throughout the piece;
- negative: several "clichés" repeated several times.
It'a pity not to have a real drummer (the player actually fights against his drums machine...!).
I whish I'll be able to approach this level in the next upcoming years.....
