VERY FUNKYなオルガンジャズ NORD C1 Hammond Organ Funk

[talvandijk]

Hey, that's real cool, groovy organ playing. Really enjoyed it.

[MrReillac]

ooooohh you is definately a 60s throwback.. love your playing ..and the more i listen the more icant believe this aint blue note or groove merchant... ful praises my man...got any singles out? you gotta get some bad 45s out...i want one ...

[rickames]

Sounds good, but if i hadn't seen the clip i could tell it wasn't the real Hammond! It would be nice if they could get the old equipment & make it like the old. It's close though.

[Konfusius3000]

very nice playing!!!! nord c1 is a sweet instrument but i love my electro 3!!!

[organeu]

bad copy of real legendary respectable HAMMOND B3.

[latincomposer]

Awesome playing man! You're keeping it light enough for the funk to shine through. Your style reminds me of church playing. I've heard the masters like Lonnie, Jimmy smith, Joey Defrancesco among other greats. And your playing is very enjoyable. Hope to see you live someday.

[EddieLandsberg]

@latincomposer Thanks for the kind words. I was lucky to study with one of the greats (Big John Patton) and I really like to have a church feel in my playing.  If you visit my website there's two good live sets... look to the left. Its my name eddielandsberg(dot)com - - I rarely play though because its hard to find musicians who understand my concept, which is Jazz, but with backbeats that are dance-able (church, shuffle, boogaloo.) Some "Jazz" drummers look down on that. :-(

[tvseal0001]

Nice volume swells bro

[MrBezczel]

siedze i myśle jak to opisać...pojęcia nie mam...siedze w bezruchu tańcząc ...

[Superfred2401]

[MrKeys57]

mm....nice...groovy....like it!

[Kafiristanica]

I just melted all over my keyboard.

[jmbean68]

Love it!

[aymric]

Awesome! Who the heck are the ten people who voted "dislike"?!

[everyonesbuddy]

freaking sweet man!! haha i love me a good organ.

[hammondplayer91]

Of Course, these funky changes and rhythm cause the feeling. But I'm just able to use things like blues-scale, chromatic scale and pentatonic to play a bluesy or funky solo, it gets boring for me, I want to learn some new, interesting soloing stuff. That's what I wanted to ask you.

[EddieLandsberg]

@hammondplayer91 ...yeah, but 99% of what I'm playing is blues, chromatics, chromatics... but you have to listen to the masters (McDuff, McGriff, Smith, Babyface Willette, John Patton, Groove Holmes, Reuben Wilson, Charles Earland, etc. etc.) and pick up what they're doing.) - - My whole solo idea was inspired by something Frank Zappa actually... to solo you put your hand in the right position and make your fingers dance... Its not the notes you should worry about... its the moves...

[EddieLandsberg]

(con't) Jimmy SMith told a friend of mine that to solo you really only need one idea per chorus... you kinda repeat it and vary it over and over again... I was joking around and just recorded a new YOU TUBE video ("Penis Stroking Man") - - If you listen to the solo you'll hear that approach better employed. On this video I was just showing off a bit... People like simplicity... Patton told me that his first organ teacher told him that the longer you hold notes on an organ, the better they

[EddieLandsberg]

(con't) sound. And I was in a club where people were screaming because some sax player had mastered circular breathing and held a note for two choruses... or you wap some lick over and over but think of ways to build the intensity. - - Its all about the energy... but mix it up with licks, riffs and stuff. The scales are just the road... you gotta find the position and dance down the road...

[technocrash09]

@EddieLandsberg ............Barb Dennerlein, HELL yeah!

[minxel16]

@EddieLandsberg I know its more 80s but look at George Duke-he let his fingers fly, but they still sounded funky and he eventually would land on the root whenever there was a bridge

[albertosoldera]

Hola! ¡ extraordinario!! un mnstruo que bien conbina los sonidos, seria muy bueno q dejaran ver bien el video bien enfocado y claro para poder aprender de este espectacualr musico, muy bueno!!

[hammondplayer91]

Yeah! This funks (does the verb "fo funk" exist? =))!!

Could you tell me which kind of scales you use in the little "solo" at about 2:10?

And in general, I'm searching for some scale-stuff to play, mainly to play funk. I hope you can help me...thx

[EddieLandsberg]

@hammondplayer91 Its not about scales... its about feel and changes. Its a blues, so I'm playing my blues. I'm using some chromaticism, and I'm thinking about the chord changes... I'm thinking about the chords and their blue notes, and also sometimes pentatonic and blues scales... and rhythm...

[proceskabaal]

Wooow how funky can you get?? Is this for sale somewhere???

[Dutch02051990]

Oh Mama...

[EddieLandsberg]

[hammondplayer91]

Cool player, cool style, cool instrument...

[iamkellen]

Very funky.

God Damn Nord. They've almost got it right.

[BoogieWoogieDuffBeer]

Sounds good......to bad that the Nord never put draw bars on there keyboard. They have those stupid little dial in buttons :( I guess I'm old school like that.......but you seem to have that down......Killer groove by the way......I love it!!

[Platano0587]

[ludwigvan17]

AWESOME!!!

[counterstrikeforces]

you rock man

[hipdrummer]

Ed, I always knew u could swing with the best of them. However; I didn't know how funky u could get. That's some badass playin! Hit me up when u back in Philly. Ya hear! Chris

[EddieLandsberg]

Actually I started playing the B-3 because I was a big fan of '70s funk and soul. Two albums in particular turned me on:

THE COUNTS: What's Up Front That Counts

and CHARLES KYNARD: Yo Momma Don't Dance

Philly, philly, philly... ahhhhhh philly...

[ludwigvan17]

Philly is the best place on Earth. Bar none.

[zyruemusic]

HELL YES!!!!!!You are a GREAT organ player plus I couldnt find any chinks in your armor!!! ONE LOVE!!! JUDAH

[guitaress1]

excellent funky blues. It's peaking out a little on my speakers, mostly the bass notes: is the recording a little hot, or do I need better speakers?

[SouthOx]

it aint your speakers, its peaking over here too

[NAFTALI2]

Welcome to the wonderful world of the Hammond sound--the most powerful instrument in the world. I have a Groove Holmes and Jimmy McGriff CD that did that, took it to both Circuit City and Brandsmart, asked for their most powerful speakers, just to see if they could hold the sound. Nope. Just made the store rumble.

[postarceto]

this is amazing thanks man pease in the world

macedonia suport your music please come in republic of macedonia and do some music here

the macedonians love you

[vivazapata74]

really great stuff, man, you get a great deal of good out of that instrument; I am only starting to use the nord electro II and I use a evolution as lower manual (handy with those assignable sliders). I'll be dissecting your playing if it's ok? :-) thanks again!

[akezdo]

Hello Eddie! Thanks for this clip. you play really funking and thight. Nord C1 is definitive the best hammond clone on the market.I am also a owner to a Clavia Nord C1. I am swedish keyboard player. Playing most soul, blues, jazz, funk and gospel. I´m glad and my back is glad not to carry a real Leslie and Hammond. Thanks to Clavia.......

[amazingeddie]

Hi ! Thanks from your compliments... Does everyone in Sweden have the same name... or are you the same Magnus I met in Aneby when I did my tour??? Oh wait... maybe I'm thinking of the Jazz critic Goran Engstsram... I meet a Magnus but... AHGHGHGHGHGHGHGH... it was bad enough when I had to do a CD where ever player had the name ANDERS and ANDREAS... I give up.... :-)

[akezdo]

I´m not the same Magnus you meet in Aneby. I´m living in north part of Sweden so i dont think we have meet each other. I´m livin near by Umeå in the region Västerbotten....

greetings/ Magnus

[EddieLandsberg]

Pentecostal Preacher??? That means you belong in Smallands... not way up in the wintery North. Furthest North I've ever been is Borlange... I think that's Pierre Sward's hometown. We briefly met there.

[akezdo]

In Nord C1 you can choose between clean, vintage 1, vintage 2. What do you have? Which think you are the best between this?

MAGNUS ENSTRÖM

[jacosw]

Amazing playing dude!

[kevbecks]

very cool for locking popping bdance!! luv this music!@!!!!

[EddieLandsberg]

Lemme see you bust some moves on it then...

Actually, I got my start playing for dancers... not break dancers, but older black people who came up on this kind of music and knew how to dance to it. - - I think Jazz can be so boring now because people stopped dancing to it, so the musicians are being way too artsy... The beat is what makes any kind of music fun to listen to... atleast in my book.

[emptysoul71]

woooow this is a graet peace of organ just give me more :D i love this thnx for it

[jmaeby]

Hey Eddie, very nice. I was thinking about buying the C1 instead of hauling my A102, and this video has convinced me.

[jazzbuff630]

You're a soul brother. You'd get big props if you played a gig in Harlem.

[amazingeddie]

I really appreciate that comment... Seleno Clarke, the king of the B-3 in Harlem was one of my mentors... and some of my earliest inspirations were going to see guys like that play.

[jazzbuff630]

The best B-3 group in Harlem right now is

the Nate Lucas Organ Trio, which has a regular gig at The Lenox Lounge on Wednesdays.

Tuesday nights at Smoke (near Columbia U.) is pretty cool too. I see Seleno hanging out in both places. Whaddya think about Rhoda Scott?

I think her version of Coltrane's "Equinox" she recorded on the Gitanes label (w/ Joe Thomas accompanying on flute) ROCKS!!!

[EddieLandsberg]

My friend Pete Fallico produced Rhoda's last CD "C to Shining C" -- love it... Also check out LONNIE GASPERINI'S NORTH BEACH BLUES... in my opinion one of the best Jazz organ CDs to come out in AGES (He's Dr. Lonnie Smith's main man..) - - I've heard a lot of nice things about Nate Lucas, but we never met... Did you ever get to hear Bobby Forrester (sadly, he passed away)?

[jazzbuff630]

I think I actually met Bobby Forrester at a jazz lounge named La Famille back in '92 or '93. It was between sets. If it was him, he played very funkily! What about Tony Monaco?

Joey DeFrancesco?

Nate Lucas, in addition to being a very talented B-3 bomber, is a really nice guy.

[EddieLandsberg]

I admire anyone who's out there doing it... that's for sure.

Bobby was an interesting guy... He turned me on to Wild Bill Davis... To me the Harlem sound today is the true authentic B-3 sound, but very few of the Harlem players are getting the props they deserve... they're more like tourist attractions... they deserve better.

[jazzbuff630]

Wild Bill Davis! I have a recording of him from 1966 with Johnny Hodges. Very strong sound. Very Basie-ish.

[THEFINALHAZARD]

Fun with Audio, AND video! :D

[gentacos]

sick..

[maidoodesu]

thank ya - funk ya -うれしya

[Claytyson01]

very nice

[randal655321]

you got the soul, brother. keep it heavy

[Triuntolearn]

Sounds so nice! Nice Funk, Soul and Jazz song. I was playing my Yamaha S90ES along with you. (Since Bb in one of my favorite chords) You make me sound pretty good. LOL!! You probably would have kicked me off the bench if you heard me play and said, "This is my gig man." :-) Love it Eddie, keep swingin man!!!!

[cass2112]

Thats one wicked groove, so damned good!

[EddieLandsberg]

Thanks... the drum track is actually recycled from my THEM THAT SWINGETH album. The drummer is Rudy Petschauer from Jack McDuff's Heating Station.

[HammondB200]

How did you filtered the other instruments out of the track

[EddieLandsberg]

Hi ! Its my CD, so I have the master... no need for stripping down.

[GuitaLord]

daaaamn groovy!!!

[mdogfromDC]

nice hittin it on the 1

[soulsistah100]

Hi! Sounds great.

[mrandall61]

very nice, skills all over the place

[organaddict]

!Nice!

[hansul]

Very very good! Someday I will buy a good hammond simulator also, or maybe the real thing! Can you name some good Organ Jazz or Blues track that is found in midi or guitar pro files? Thank you so much, your my idol!

[EddieLandsberg]

Thanks for your kind words... regretably I know nothing about MIDI... computers for me are for networking, e-mails and porn...  I do most my music live... I'm working on a play-a-long series, but the final edits on my music theory book and a million other things have the release on the backburner.

[69B3]

Thanks for the tip, will try it. Really appreciate it. Keep Swinging man!!

[69B3]

Sounding Great! I have your VCR "The Seven Secrets Jazz Organ Workshop." I need to learn more about bass lines among many other things. I listened to jazzmannn play "Midnight Special" here on YouTube to learn how he plays the bassline for that song. Again, you are sounding great!! Do you have any Instructional DVD's out that would help out a beginner like myself? Thanks for posting this!

[EddieLandsberg]

Thanks for the kind words... I have a whole method I developed on bass lines... trying to lay it down on camera... its pretty simple actually and once you can walk bass so much else falls into place. I have the script in my head, but I have really bad ADD, so getting it from my head into the video camera and not losing the tape is a challenge. I'll give you a hint to start: Pinky and Thumb on root and index finger on the fifth 90% of the time... that's your basic hand position...
