Old School Gospel Hammond

[msindymusic]

this just put a smile on my face. my granny used to play at her church in the 40's and 50's. thank you for sharing this video.

[Sire743]

She's playing is Heaven now. You do know that there's a choir up there that's been just waiting for her, right? Music is one of God's great creations for praise. Eternal now. Thanks for posting this.

[Immaculate416]

[8033Mac]

[Ben1238]

This just made my day!

[hawtwired]

God bless you for sharing this! While I'm a white guy that grew up in the country, my mother played the organ at church., and there was always one in our living room. It was just something I grew up with. My Dad was the most unlikely person to appreciate this REAL gospel playing, being an old rodeo cowboy from the 50s, but it was dear to his heart too...a year ago today he went home to be with Jesus, I really REALLY needed to hear this today, again THANK YOU SO MUCH...

[JFrostz]

GOOOOOOOO GRANNNNNNNYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!111

[blavis50]

[amoye25566]

Thank You very much for sharing this with me it makes me remember when my grand ma would beat the tam marine and scrub the wash board when I was a child following behind the organ

[funkoforte]

Wow, she just great!!! Reminds me of my grandma when she used to play the piano for us children loooong time ago (in Switzerland). There was no Hammond around, but I have one now :-))) therefore I'm surfing around youtube for great players such as this wonderful lady... Thanks for posting!!

[Rowoches]

I LOVE IT, LOVE IT, and LOVE IT!!! Thanks for sharing!

[FunksUTube]

This just became one of my favorite videos. What it's all about, church, music, family!

[mrsgmason]

Go ahead momma, Amen, Amen

[Princessgolde]

I tell all of these young contemporary musicians that if they cannot play "old school" then THEY HAVEN'T LEARNED TO PLAY YET! I appreciate Auntie.

[15mixedboy]

was her maiden name Davis & did she live in philly, if she did my great grandma says she knows her from back in the day

[alaye0203]

@15mixedboy - yes, thats correct...her name is Sis Blanche Davis Taylor and she played for years in Philly and surrounding areas.

[15mixedboy]

@alaye0203 Is she still alive?

[alaye0203]

@15mixedboy No, she passed away suddenly in May of 2008

[15mixedboy]

[elderkbaronsmith]

where is Mother Taylor from can you send me a short bio I'd like to put on the Delaware Jurisdiction Today webblog. kbaronsmith@comcast.net

[TMinus94]

That's cute of her to still have the skills and enjoy playing

[idkyetso]

She reminds me of Sister Julia Burns back in the day at Price Memorial A.M.E. Zion Church in Atlantic City, New Jersey waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy back in the day! God Bless Sister Taylor!!!!

[BrownSkinn1]

Beautiful!

[thrillwood]

There is a awful lot of good contemporary music in the churches of today.................there is NOT enough old school hymns though. (Yes, I said it)! Mrs. Taylor had it going on until the day she died (in my estimation) . I am personally carrying on her tradition even if few christians under the age of 50 appreciate it these days. It is getting hard to find hymn books in many "Hip" praise and worship style churches. What a sad commentary on Contemporary Praise.

[MrIcetreyman]

@thrillwood I'm under 50 and the ONLY religious music I listen to are traditional hymns and anthems. If I want to hear hip hop music, I'll go to the club. The day they take the hymn books out of the church will be the day I stop attending. PS I concur with you, Mrs. Taylor had it going on right to the end. I really loved that lady,.

[mcdanieltony]

I've enjoyed watching this like a thousand times. Thanks for sharing.

[ShaShaZane88]

[IceTreyMan]

Kyle, I'm so sorry to hear about Mrs. Taylor's death. I use to be her bus driver when she gave trips to Atlantic City and other places. I have a video tape with her playing the organ at a concert. I agree, she was one of the best organist in the world. She was truly a wonderful lady. I'll miss BMT.
