It's Hammond B3 Organ Day


I just discovered The Ken Clark Trio and wanted to share my discovery.

Ken Clark Trio Web Site

if you click on the CD's on the right, you can listen to tracks..

Track #6. I Just Woke Up on Mutual Respect sure makes me happy. It was kinda difficult dancing while driving coming in this morning. I imagine my car was hopping down the road :-)

hope you enjoy as much as I have,

Do a search and find the "Hammond Organ Radio" station on the internet. Lots of fun.
Maybe I'm showing my age, BUT- has anyone heard of Jimmy McGriff? I saw him live, many times, in Cleveland, O., Back in the 60's. Some samples, here; (http://music.yahoo.com/jimmy-mcgriff/albums/mcgriffs-blues--202254777) Jimmy Smith played some of the same venues, and both smoked those keys! I recently purchased Jimmy Smith, 'Bluesmith', as a 180 gram vinyl reissue(Russian pressing/EXCELLENT presentation). Bruce Katz & his B3 sound exceptional on the Joe Beard/Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, 'Blues Union' JVC XRCD. I suppose I should buy the vinyl too, but the XRCD sounds so good......! BTW: The two disc/45rpm reissue of Jimmy Smith's, 'Midnight Special', was a MAJOR disappointment(Hoffman & Grey's mastering sucks).

Yes, I have a number of LP's with Jimmy McGriff. Hank Crawford and Jimmy, Gene Ammons and Jimmy, plus I've seen him live.
