First of all, who plays a ham without pedals????? I hope you've gotten better and have open up. I've been playing since 2001 and I know great from aight.
so true guys...search gospel organ....u'll see them as young as in the "preteens" put'n a royal hurt'n on the much older guys. a couple of yrs back...the was a 7 yr old on the b3 who'd blow ur mind if u heard him!
Too bad the guitarist wasn't in the video, was he shy??? Hope the radio station made some money, didn't seem like much of a crowd. Nice little group, Bravo!
The bass pedals on 'most' full size hammonds arent physically attached. The organ just sits on top of the pedalboard. They are not needed as you can play bass lines with your left hand and get the same sounds with proper drawbar settings
You guys need a lot of practice. The drummer is way off! Guitar is decent. But Robbie you need more practice dude. Guitar player you can't play jazz sounding like country!
Robbie, is that your Dad at the beginning of the video? I'm sure I read on another one of your videos that you were 'self taught'. How's that work? Or did you just never 'listen to your dad'? Great playing but cut the crap.
I certainly respect the playing. He's great. By why say you are 'self' taught' when you've got a father that plays the same instument at the same gig? Seems like someone is trying to mislead the YouTube public in order to gain extra praise to me. Sorry, the constant references to being 'only 18' and to being 'self taught' take away from the lustre of the great musicianship when you realise that his dad is a pro keyboard player too. Do you not get my point?
yeah usually "self-taught" people have no influences and never have any help along the way because they live in a cave,
...end sarcasm. This guy clearly enjoys playing the organ, regardless of you being on a personal mission to "find the truth". maybe you should solve the JFK assassination next
Robbie, I really love what you do and encourage you to keep at it you've got a real talent ...but I have to say, could you drop the constant references to being '18 Years Old'? No one really cares. All the audience is interested in is how you play and sound. Constantly mentioning your age on every one of your clips makes you sound like a talent quiz contestant or a carnival freak. Leave it out. But keep up the great playing man! And I mean 'MAN'!
why you guys keep informing the age of Robbie. He is 18. ok. Congrats. Other pianists were much better than Robbie at the ages of 15, 16 17. The age is not important. Don't you guys realize that?
Awesome...I too play but I'm 60.....that's good stuff nobody how old you are!...Looks like you are blowing on an A-100...or maybe C-3...have you tried any of the clones....Roland Cx-3?....XB?...just curious what you think of them...
anyway...just excellent playing!!..great vamping...and lead work
dude, you've been bragging about the fact that you're 18 for years now. i'm 20 and i play that shit with more soul all day. get over yourself man, you're a dime a dozen
Hahaha! Well do some gigs and save up that money. I bought both my C3 and B3 just before 2000 and the C3 was only $3500...the B3 $4500. Check out ebay.
you play like a seasoned 50 year old i can't believe you're only 18 i am impressed and if you got compliments from the great tony monaco this is a direction you should go.
Chevere contigo, I liked it a lot, you play very nice, and the sound is very soft, cool. Although I don`t know so much about jazz I love it, it`s just great. And it´s good to know that as me, there`s joung people that like it too. Continue doing this, you are very good, good luck
Man, You're fantastic. The whole music is great!! And if the biggest, greatest TONY MONACO has posted a comment like this, You MUSTN'T stop playin that good-old C3 :D
SO SORRY----- I hope I didn't make Shakespeare blush
