something about the B3 & Leslie combination that takes this song to another level. I have played it on a Casio, a Yamaha, and a Wurlitzer, sound good but just doesnt have the warm tonal richness of the Hammond & Leslie. Damn this sounds good!
Hallo Natalie, many thanks for your nice comment on my video. Are you family of the late Donald Dunn the bassplayer of Booker T & MG's ? Please let me know .

Specific: Look from 3:03 - 3:17 The Leslie horn in the music track is - without doubt - running in fast mode. But the horn in the Leslie on the video, is running in slow speed. If you want to make it look real - then make an efford in trying to make it look real.
Dear MM. Thanks for your reaction. As you will understand, I've been using a backingtrack. In this case a multitrack ("Karaokeversie.nl"). I 've custommized this backingtracks in Adobe Audition. In all of my video's in which I play the Hammond, the Hammond you hear is not the original Hammond of the backingtrack, but one played by myself on my Hammond and my Leslie (the one you see in the video). So the Hammond you hear in the video is real , not fake. Unfortenately it was for me technically impossible, to make a video of me playing the Hammond while recording the audio. So the Hammond part you see in the video is not what you hear in the video. The Hammond part you hear is made earlier.
@@hdww Dear Harm. I am glad, that you respond to my comment to the video ! And I understand the reasons, that you have mentioned. Maybe it is just me, who is too critical, but it disturbs me, to see the Leslie horn behind you, spinning, where it shouldn't spinn - and vice verca ;-) You play a great Hammond, and makes a great cover of Time Is Tight - no doubt about that ! Keep up pulling the drawbars ! Best wishes, MM
@@MikkiRover I also noticed this, but I assumed the disconnect between the heard and seen Leslie speed is to do with shooting the video with one camera twice, with different views. Further to his explanation, he is probably changing speed at different times in the sound recording and the video. There's more to doing this stuff than meets the eye! The wonder is that the sound of one note on the Hammond sounds so rich and full (allowing even for the chord in the left hand).
Bravo! Sitting behind the Hammond, all that hardwood and motor oil, is nothing like a modern digital machine. It is a visceral experience, and you can see it in your countenance. No one will ever make a machine like that again, it would be so expensive to recreate the tone wheel system and the wiring, you are truly playing a piece of musical history that represents the best of man's (and women's, as many of the assemblers were gals....) design and fabrication efforts. Just one question- 60 hz machine with frequency shifter, or original 50 hz EU machine? Love it!
BTW- I think the B2 sounds the best. I've had B3s, RT-3s, A100s, CVs, C3s, but my late B2 (plastic wire and smooth draw bars) with a Trek percussion was the Bee's Knees.
It's a 1953 Hammond B2 imported from the US. With help of a frequency shifter made suitable for EU circomstances. I also changed the ratched drawbars to smooth drawbars and I changed the preamp AO-10 to a AO-28.
@ Richard Marshall Love your comment. Very well put. Applause for you. So much has changed that so many took horribly for granted...now many people are desperate to save so much, as very well they should. Much will never be again.
Hmmmmm. The Leslie horn, don't spin, as it should do, while the speed is "fast" in the organ. Take a good look at the hord, as you listen to the music. This video is fake - sorry to say.
Well it could be fake, but there's no reason for it to be. The player seems like a genuine enthusiast. See the man's explanation to a similar comment, and mine, as below; I also noticed this, but I assumed the disconnect between the heard and seen Leslie speed is to do with shooting the video with one camera twice, with different views. Further to his explanation, he is probably changing speed at different times in the sound recording and the video. There's more to doing this stuff than meets the eye!
