I blasted over this song last night, hoping to do it with my jazz band! Using a single xk3c without the lower manual at the moment, so the percussive clacks are missed out! Keep up the good work
oh! nice! i have a couple of McGriff´s records, he was special, there were a Mcgriff special on TV here in Sweden, not long ago, missed to record it!!!
BUT i have seen a shortfilm of him somwhere..hm... if i find it i can tell you if you want, good playing my friend!
Nice, strange there is not much grif video fottage here, somebody must have some, I love the Hank crawford sessions, Your organ sounds good. Please post some more, I can learn from this, Cheers
Sounds great!! Just heard of him and have not seen any film, etc., of him. (Maybe heard him play on Live365.com) You have to give me some pointers on bass comp, riffs, arpeggios, etc., because of what you did. LOL!
Hello "SkinnerBlues". If you think I can be of any use, I'd be happy to oblige. You say "pointers on bass comp, riffs, arpeggios, etc" so let me know what type of thing and maybe I can help out. Regards, Sidney.

Very good rendition... Have a listen to "Round Midnight" by Jimmy McGriff ...and please emulate it!
There is the original Thelonious Monk recording, and Wes Montgomery, and numerous others, but Jimmy McGriff is my fave!

I breathed the same air as this man. In a club the size of postage stamp - the bass on his organ reverberated through my body and shook my soul.
