  • My friend, jazz, blues, funk, and rock don't sound nice on "church" organs. Hammonds and Leslies are made for these genres...including gospel, which oftentimes integrates all the aforementioned genres. Please don't hate on the Hammonds, Doc!!! Just know that most of us don't attempt much classical music on them. There are other organs designed for the classical music sound, such as the "church" organs you've mentioned. BTW, Hammonds & Leslies can be found for REALLY good prices!!

  • it's one thing to play it great, but it's even better to see the player enjoying it!

  • Dont want to sound like a rascist but seeing a black guy on a hammond made me click this video. He is awesome!!

  • hes all in the zone... thats just amazing!!

  • That high note a about 0:27 is what I am talking about??? how do i get that tone

  • how is the high notes on the bottom keyboard a different timbre/quality from the the low notes on the botom keyboard. I love how the high notes it sound. how do you get it to sound like that. I have an electric synth from Yamaha with a pipe organ (that sounds like a white church organ), how can i get this tone (that sounds like a black church organ) out of it?

  • FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • sooooooooooooo slickkkk

  • @fstanley35 Hammonds became the sound of these genre's, but of course how the story goes, the Hammond organ was 'made' quite literally for the church. The irony of the whole deal still amazes me- the irony that the best sounding organ on a Leslie was invented 6 years before a Leslie existed. Let's add that Don Leslie was trying to make his Hammond get a theater organ tremulent (caused by oscillating pressure drops in the pipes) by employing a mechanical Doppler approach.
