There is no better B3 player than Dr. Lonnie Smith...he IS the best!!!!! Check out his facebook group: "Dr. Lonnie Smith...Funkiest B3 Burner On The Planet!!!"

Can you go wrong with Lonnie Smith? Check out Billy Holloman to hear someone who can grind the Hammond.

Nasvhville has an almost non-existent jazz scene. Fortunately, we've been honored to have rare appearances by Joey D, or Dr. Smith, or Larry Goldings or Tony Monaco about once every 2 years.

[lemonchoux]

you should check out Mel Deal... he is a jazz player in the area, and always has killer musicians playing with.

Sounds good to me! Loving the guitar solo!

[JonnyRocketfingers]

I was actually at this show. The drum kit sounded nothing like it does here. Definitely a filming/sound issue. The concert was awesome.

[Karlfalcon]

Ooh, "The Whip". Great track.

[tehtube]

Nice solo Pete, but what happened to the Doc's solo?

Please post any other footage you have...

[cprhodes11]

I actually shot this with my still camera, and this is all the footage it would hold... I do though have many great shots if you have any interest, let me know. I forget the guy's name on the drums, but he was keeping up nicely.
