That was so touching it brought tears to my eyes. Friendship is what it’s all about. At this point in my life my friends and family are the most precious assets I have. I am glad he has made 6 years and do hope without pain (or much). Thanks so much for sharing this!!

Happy Birthday ladies!!! You bring so much joy to my life (and I’m sure to the 218,000 followers you have on YouTube). Watched Nowhere Man and Songbird (for the umpteenth time) earlier today and they are both just sooo good. Thx for all you (and your parents) contribute to this crazy mixed up world we live in!

Welcome Phil!! Shortly you will begin to long for Fridays when the MLT club members weekly post is added. I just became an MLT Club member last August and am so happy that I am now a part of this great community.

Procol Harum featured the Hammond in their music most of the time. Obviously Whiter Shade of Pale is best know. This particular instrumental has soaring B3 sounds as well as very powerful guitar work. Quite dramatic.

First link is Barbara Dennerlein and Rhonda Scott beating the heck out of the keys. I love Barbara’s playing and have about 6-8 CDs and digital albums of her work.

Second link is of her talking about the B3 (in German I believe) and playing

Quality is somewhat subjective but I agree that the Disco era was tough to go through and I really don’t find modern pop very good. For quite a few people music is just for dance, to set a mood or backgound. Those of us blessed with the pure love of music and how it can uplift us usually have strong opinions it. I know I do. Historically I believe the 60’s and early 70’s will be looked at as profond periods of originality in all the arts!

Hi all. Thx Jung for the topic. I feel the same way as you all do but just remember each generation pretty much feels the same. My son and his wife don’t like 60’s-90’s music much at all. My daughter in law really dislikes the Beatles (can’t understand how this is possible but there isn’t anything to be gained by discussing it with her) She loves Taylor Swift. So to be fair the equivalent if I go generationally one would have to ask me how I like music from the 20’s , 30’s and the 40’s. And my initial response if not that much. I feel like the music of the 60’s and early seventies is fantastic…the best but then again that is when I was a teenager and in my early 20’s which I suspect is the time most people form their basic musical taste. My son really likes the music mostly played as background in video games (He practiced and played the piano from age 5 until he graduated!)

- Got mine yesterday as well. Good times!! Also the latest scribble. Love it!!
-
One further item…I would argue that John Sebastian could play the harmonica with anyone…he was fantastic.
-
As an added touch I believe the organ used is a Hammond!!
-
Loved Ten Years After and then some of Alvin Lee’s solo work…the song you posted being one of my favorites. Here’s a great blues instrumental from Carlos Santana, Samba Pa Ti.

Len and Chris
Love Joey and Barbara. Never saw either live. Barbara has done a few CDs on pipe organs which I really enjoy.

Gary was a phenomenal musician and band leader. That piece was recorded in Union Chapel. Go figure, a B3 in a church….not surprising as that’s where most were bought for (churches) until Jazz and Rock discovered it. Loved the combination of piano and B3 in Procol Harum!!!

I second that!!
