THE HAMMOND ORGAN 

I love Hammond organ !!!❤No one will ever invent a better one!!!

The greatest sound ever invented!

Lovely video! Thanks

What a great video ! Very informative and interesting!

É o melhor órgão de todos.

The original motor synth.

In terms of the old school classification of instruments of Chordophones, Aerophones, Membranophones, Idiophones.. does the Hammond fall under Idiophones?

I had a used M3 Spinet and the pitch was off by 2 semi tones. How could this be ?

ハモンドオルガンは、ヤマハやKAWAIとは異なる。無限に近い音を出せる。でも、ある程度の金を出さないとね！150万以下では厳しいかも！自分がローンで買ったのは500万したけど買った当時は高級車買えたかな？今から60年程昔だった！楽器は値段が半端ないね！億何か普通にするから怖いよ。レバー１つの組み合わせやボタン操作他の組み合わせで如何様にも音が変化するのに、使いこなすまでは苦労しました。もう後期高齢になって指や足が動かなくなりました！当時は御陰で演奏で喜ばれました。映画音楽やムード音楽等で何組かのカップル👫が出来たのは良い思い出です。上前津にハモンドのショップが有りましたが、今はもう見なくなりました！

2’55”… er… don’t think so

Скорей бредофон.

All electro-mechanical and electronic, non-cathedral organs sound really "cheesy" to me. It comes from horrible memories of 1960s "home organs" when they first became popular and affordable, on which old fuddy duddies played cheesy versions of cheesy pop songs and cheesy 50s "hits". My grandfather had one ... he was also a church organist, which I loved to hear. As a child, I used to leave the room in disgust at the sound of his home organ. Electric organs are *NOT* a wind instrument. They synthesise, IMITATE the sound of an organ (and other things). I have always found "flute" mode on any organ to be a laughable abomination! I am a flautist (bansuri) btw.

Robin Richmond imported the first Hammond organ into Great Britain from the United States in 1935, the rest is history.
