Nice Pictures...Good you and Don could meet up. I made alot of money of his Tube speakers and even some of the solid state junk too. I mostly enjoyed the photo of that black original Hammond A i presume or maybe a BV or something old like that. Looks like my old AV to me....
The only Hammond John ever played before this one is a Monarch solid state He does not even know what a solo stop on this organ is and if you know about the RT3 solo stops they are ok but they are not going to sound very good unless you get a subwoofer and more room than this... already you can hear the leslies 60 miles away in Denver CO John is a purist and choose the stops corectly ballanced to his standard of what you hear in the room and nothing more. The clarity is pure as a f9 tracker
As an organist with a foot in both "camps," I thoroughly enjoyed this. However, I'm wondering why you didn't use the Solo Pedal stops at all -- not even for that last big Eb chord!
(And, yes, Don Leslie was first and foremost a pipe organ lover and did devise the Leslie Speaker to make the Hammond sound more pipe-like. I had the privilege of visiting him in his home and playing his theatre organ. See [1377731 "dot" "com" "slash" donleslie])
nice to hear Bach on a hammond.. U didnt used the pedal solo stops.... can u demonstrate them plz... Also you are using the bass 16 and 8 on the pedals right.. no couplers?
Will post more videos soon...or not so soon...but will do my best to get more up. However this organ and both leslies sold a month or two ago. I do still have the trek II reverb for my next organ unless someone wants to make me an offer.
I really enjoyed this, please make more vids! I hope to play like this on my little Hammond M3, I have the optional external reverb speaker that makes a similar sound as if you were in a large room.
Thiswould thrill Laurens Hammond. I have been playing Bach, Mozart and Handel on Hammond organs in Methodist churches for over 30 years. Thanks for sharing this.

@lesliekeepsonspinin SO WRONG, the hammond organ was made to emulate the pipe organ.

Really nice! Laurens Hammond would be proud of you! He hated Jazz and Blues, he wanted only classical music to be played on his organs.

Wonderful; really good job! :)
I always thought that Hammond organs and classical music may join in a beautiful way! ;)

Lovely job. You achieve that Bach's music sounds wonderfully in a Hammond. I hope to see more of your videos here, and more Bach.
