Jazz Organ Summit Finale in Chicago

This was our Jazz Organ Summit in Chicago at the DuSable Museum of African American History. Charlie Earland produced this show and asked Jimmy McGriff and Lonnie Smith and Johnny Hammond Smith to join him. This was the last time Johnny Hammond Smith would ever play. He died eleven days after we did this show. Greg Rockingham is on drums and Bob DeVos plays guitar. The music from this night was released on Cannonball Records. Enjoy this because it represents a truly historic event for jazz organ fans. Visit my web site for more jazz organ clips: www.doodlinlounge.com Pete Fallico

I bought the cd several years ago & it is awesome. I got it mainly for Charles Earland but it is a great show by everyone.

@feeltheska Thankfully for all of us, music transcends, race, creed, and hate! Never mind the closed-minded, I say!

So sad that the drummer Greg Rockingham couldn't have brought his dad (Dave) to show these cats how to work a b3.

Man my dad would have loved this video, he was still living in 96 when this occured. He was a serious jazz fan of these very guys. Thanks much for the post.
