Hammond Organ Funk Soul Groove

Steveland Swatkins from Excellent Gentlemen lays down some "warts and all" Hammond groove on his A-101 and Leslie 147.
Apologies to all the legit B3 players out there, I'm just diddling in Cm with a section of Sly Stone-style soul changes.

I LOVE the low end of my A-1! You just set a new bar for me brother. Your timing is so damn funky. What type of leslie are you running though?

[Nicenfunky]

@wizardmix It's a 147

[wizardmix]

@Nicenfunky Thanks, I should have just read the description. Your apologies are funny, you've obviously got the feel which makes you real, then again most people who are really good don't think they are.

[Nicenfunky]

@wizardmix Yeah I mean I'm obviously not a beginner, I just can't fully kick pedal bass or freak the over-the-top Hammond madness like some of the legit gospel and jazz players that I revere. Not being falsely humble I hope, just a realist in that I've still got a lot to learn. I have to feel it before I can play it.

Great feel man. i'm assuming the bass is a lot fatter in real life than on the vid?

[Nicenfunky]

@Jyazz21 you know it bud, this was done quick and dirty with the camcorder's little built in mic.

[Nicenfunky]

Yeah they nabbed it from Janet, who pinched it from Sly, who borrowed it from Freddie who learned it in church.
