Kids Jam on Green Onions

[RayManzarekGod]

You should get the kids a Kalamazoo organ! Props if you've heard of one!

[gorillius]

that was so great to see and hear, I applaud all that were involved for chosing such a landmark tune. Dont let "rap" ever get in your way.

[HunterMann]

Great but I think the bass & drums didn't keep up a very tight rythmn for the kids to groove to.  Why not teach some of the kids to play bass and drums?

[yesmitch]

@HunterMann This was 3 yrs. ago. They are now The Kalamazoo Academy of Rock and are playing all the instruments. Check out our vids!

Would of been better if it was a Hammond B3

[whatistheretotype]

OMG!!! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET A 200A? THEY DON'T EVEN MAKE THEM ANYMORE!!!!!!

[RayManzarekGod]

@whatistheretotype Hey! You can still find them all over ebay, and craigslist, and if you're real lucky, a thrift store!

[RayManzarekGod]

Lucky Kids with a Wurly AND A FARFISA!

[buddyeagle]

Fender Rhodes piano or Farfisa? Somebody tell me please.

[yesmitch]

@buddyeagle We used a Farfisa organ and a Wurlitzer 200 electric piano.  Thanx for watching!

[AragonDubs]

Very good teachers, and lucky kids

[repsoner]

i wish i got to do something like this, damn

[RayManzarekGod]

Are those Farfisas? and a Wurlitzer? Lucky kids!

[rodoorsfopeyote]

gimme your farfisa kid!

>=D

[Spectres]

These kids are lucky....they didn't have a music teacher pushing classical crap down your throat.  Playing music like this at such a young age makes it fun and they'll probably stick to playing the keyboards when they get older.

[yesmitch]

Thanks for this good feedback - you get what we're about!

[leftywitt]

check out the version by tom petty, its on you tube

[R4MMV8SRT10]

wow i never thought ide see young ones play such a great record very welldone to them all and it sounded great

[waydeepinside]

I really feel it's fantastic these young one's jamming classic blues.

Getting to them before the punk influence turns their taste to waiste.

I graduated high school in 1977, yet I do not appreciate punk.

I find rap more innovative then punk to be honest.

Mu Spirit is that of a Bluesman----I can feeel the Blues!

[tamaplayer22]

you have to have an open mind when it comes to music, just because you dont like punk dosen't make it a bad influence

[Makudakinger]

Can you tell which instruments are these two vinatge keys? I guess the one is a Wurlitzer E-Piano and other one is a Farfisa organ.

[royalfuzziness]

Cut down on the drum cymbals.

[Orimentals]

Not bad kids....

[veerman15]

check out my version of this song

[jda60265]

I am a fan of "Green Onions" and I think the kids did a GREAT JOB! It's like they channeled the original band. Great job guys!

I know the drums sounded loud, but I could tell he wasn't beating them hard, it must've just been where the recording equipment was set up. No biggie. Great job EVERYONE!

The drummer was hitting too many cymbals and washed out the sound :(

[jdavidb]

some of the solos were pretty good. The sound would have been better with only the bass guitar part going during those leads without the rhythm organ playing.

[yesmitch]

Yeah - I think that's a valid criticism of the arrangement. But, hey - it's from a kid's piano recital (I'm the teacher and bass player) and also like you said, there are some good solos! Thanx for checking it out.

[djnarcotic]

that was whack i know there young but i wernt feeling it that drummer was 2 loud boo
