That Hammond Organ sound is great. I played this song in my head whilst watching a naff (Poor)band playing at my local (boozer). I left early to make my way home to view Youtube instead. Very satisfying I have to say ¦¬)
Im just starting to teach myself the keyboard and while playing around on it I suddenly heard couple of notes of this song. Now Im using this great song to try to fully understand the keyboard. Im trying to figure out the keys and the fingersettings, its not easy but sometimes I feel im getting there. For my fist chord I use CGD, is that about right?
Actually, That is Booker T. & The Mg's playing an alternate version with myself over playing Mr. Jones. So all parts played are orginal...Just an alternate version. And "Studio Version" refers to my studio. Thanx for the great comment
@ltdanno1 Very good job ,I would like to try to play this famous music from Bokker T. could you help me to find a backing track ,thank's a lot for this demonstration and sound quality, see you soon I hope
i remember growing up and hearing this song amoung many others, but the organ has always been my favorite instrument! so many emotions that it can create, its most the time mind boggling. and you sir play it damn good! thnx for uploading!
We used to dance to this song on Sunday afternoons at the Paul Sauvé Arena in Montreal in the late sixties. The place was jam-packed and uncomfortably hot but we never stopped. If I tried that today under the same conditions they'd have to call in the paramedics. It sure brings back memories to this 57 year old teenager. You play it so well that I actually thought that you were a member of the original band. I'm going to take a look at your other videos. Fantastic job.
Wow! You got that stop & spin down! Just like the record. Nice attention to detail !
on another note, If you don't already have it, find the cd, Winston Walls, Boss of the B3. you'll love it. My favorite "Georgia" ever. Keep up the nice sounds!
while in the marine corp stationed at CamPen, CA, we would lay in bed call the local radio station and request these songs to be play, great listening music, brings back lots of goodtimes, R. COTTEN E-4 USMC 1967-1971
Thank you for posting this. My father owned a Hammond (not the B3, but a pristine furniture-esque model) and leslie and used to play quite a bit of this stuff. This really brought back memories.
I "visit" with you just about once a week and list\n in. I just wanted to "boost" whatever all of your other fans have said. "Time is tight" has become one of my all time favorites and I just like to hear you play it. Especially this "long version . Get the new Leslie yet? If so, when are we going to see it and hear your next "triiumph"? I guess I should make a better choice of words, but keep the home fireas burning and, above all, stay save.
The only thing I can play is the radio/stereo, etc.. so enjoy the talent you have because I would if I could... enjoyed your performance... one of my all time favorites... Mav
I thought at first, not another good song turned into a dirge.Great sound, love the spinning leslie,s, I couldn,t crank my laptop up loud enough.Bring back the hammond.
I posted 2 comments about a week and a half ago and have been waiting for a response from you, LT. They're missing. Did you remove them? I can't 4,for the life of me, think of anything I i said that would inflame anyone (What a word to use when talking to a Firefighter) or could have been percieved as objectionable. I'm not that way.
LT, thanks for a great version of a great tune. this has always been one of my favorite songs, all inclusive. You do a wonderful job on it. Also, if I may be so bold - I'm from the Volunteer Firefighter ranks and understand you're a firefighter Lt. May I ask where and for how long? Please continue turning out vids like this one. They are greatly appreciated by all of us. I wish I had 1/2 your talent.
Hey, I love this song, and you've done a great job here.
THere's just one thing I'd like to ask about,
this doesn't sound like the studio version...it has a lot of extra sections that the original 2-minute version didn't...GREAT sections, but from what?
It would be so cool if you played Apollo 100's "Joy" at the fast tempo the band uses, with a drum beat accompaniment. I know it's harpsichord, but I'm sure you could make a similar sound with a Hammond - plus a Hammond sounds so much cooler than any Harpsichord.
I'm trying to get into Hammonds. I've never played an electric organ before, and the XK1 is really inexpensive, so I'm considering it as a starter organ.
did the xk1 in the begining. I do have a B3 and 122 leslie and also have an XK3 2 manual in the hammond traditional case....it;s Grrrrreeeaaaattttttttt
shit! obviously got more money than one finger!! all that equipment there, what a waste
