    You play just fine, Nick. Your teaching skills are also excellent.
    I have a 1935 Hammond A, upgraded to a B with the addition of Leslie switches, percussion, etc, into what is correctly called an AB. It is the finest beast Hammond ever made. The B3, of which I have had many, has the same balustraded legs but despite having everything and more than a B3, especially in extra tonewheels that were removed by bean-counting accountants. It looks identical to it’s descendant, the B3 but the main body furniture is a few inches less deep at the back. The extra depth of the main cabinet was created when wood was pretty cheap and Hammond were targeting schools, churches and other places where the organ needed to look more like a piano. Strange thinking perhaps, but true.
    My instrument was fully restored to it’s current immaculate condition and MIDI OUT was also added to the lower which involved adding velocity sensors to every single key.
    It may also be of interest that my Hammond was made by The Hammond Clock Company as it is made in the 1st year of issue before The Hammond Organ Company actually existed. The plaque insider states that it is not for sale and is made purely for demonstration purposes. This particular instrument is an unmatchable gem and I am incredibly lucky to be it’s custodian albeit for not much longer as I am 72 this year and not in the best of health.
    I noticed that, like me, you appear to operate your Leslie speaker with a foot switch. This is the best way to do it, needless to say. It keeps your left hand where it needs to be, attending to the bass notes, of course.
    I know not whether you would agree but I always try and explain to synth and other modern keyboard players that playing Hammond type of cloning on anything but a Hammond does little to turn us into organists, largely due to modern keyboards being set up with sustain pedals. This tends to mean we end up playing piano style on an organ, which really misses the point of learning to crawl about on the keys picking notes and sequences without any way of sustaining them except holding the notes down with your fingers, and not doing so with your foot on a pedal. Playing a real Hammond enforces correct and ancient technique without which the organ parts we chose to play just don’t sound right. Therefore, tough as this must sound, I personally recommend owning a proper tonewheel Hammond or even a clone as long as you do not attach a sustain pedal to it. Failing to can still sound pretty good, though, but one ends up playing notes that would not be possible to play on the real thing.
    My conclusion is that anyone watching this lesson who is trying to get into proper Hammond techniques should find it to be incredibly helpful to watch this uploaded video. It really is brilliant and should save years of struggling away trying to find the right scales and traditions of true Hammond playing.

    Thanks a lot Nick for taking the time to slow these down, there are a lot of cool ideas there! I like the fast Bb - B - C - Eb one you do in F with the Leslie on fast and then roar up to the high C - it's a great one for adding some drama! A good bit of advice I was given is to think of two 'grips' for the blues scale, so for example in the key of C grip 1 is starting on C and where your fingers naturally land, and grip two is starting on G. Then trying to find licks for each grip, and then linking them together. It helps it seem much more manageable! Thanks again, Adam

    Another run of Jon Lord’s I really like, is the organ riff at the end of the live version of “Smoke on the Water”, from the ‘Made in Japan’ album.
    That thing is absolutely smokin’! I believe he is holding down a C in the bass, while (whilst) soloing in G minor blues. Or another way of saying that might be: He’s soloing in the “i” while holding down a “IV” in the bass. It seems to make for a very tense and suspenseful sound, because that IV in the bass is just dying to be resolved to the I.
    Do I have that about right? 🤔

    • @michaelcorby3681
      @michaelcorby3681 Год назад +2

      @@666JGNotts I’d have to very respectfully disagree. Do reconsider because a Hammond tends to teach you what it wants from you. Whilst you’re gathering licks, and this video is the best one I’ve seen so far for doing just that, you can still find incredibly simple things that are perfect with many tracks. In a way, I’m saying that Hammond is just as much about feel, no matter how simple the part is, than it is about playing accomplishment. I grew up being influenced equally by bands like Spooky Tooth as By witnessing the amazing stage stealing and lethal keyboard work, and particularly the Hammond playing, of Keith Emerson.
      I must admit to thinking I’d never be able to be a pro but I ended up playing Hammond in literally hundreds of US arenas in a band. Nick is absolutely correct in saying that all it takes is practice. People think you need to be born with these skills but it isn’t the music that we’re born with so much as an addiction to practicing. Rest assured, when I started I was crap. However, practicing on my own became an obsession that led me to the profession. If your even interested enough to find this video fascinating I can only suggest that it’s time to consider speeding up the learning curve by getting a big tonewheel Hammond before they become way out of reach price wise. Then, watch Nick a lot and let the Hammond teach you the rest. You also have a sense of humility towards music and all the greatest players I ever met had just that.
      You’ve got the right attitude to be a pretty decent player. You’ve got a great teacher online right here, too, You also have a calling that is essential to keep you practicing. All you need now, is to get hold of a real Hammond and the door will open like a portal, given patience.
      If you can’t afford a completely analog Hammond, consider getting an XK5 Hammond, don’t use a sustain pedal with it and add a genuine Leslie to it. That not only saves you some money but is logistically far easier to get to gigs and rehearsal studios, etc, with it.
      One last tip. You might find it interesting to minimalise your left hand playing here and there as a complex bass on any organ can intrude on the EQ territory of a bass guitar in a rock band. The more simple bass that Nick displays is extremely effective on organs, particularly Hammonds. Many highly accomplished players keep the left hand part very simple. Using a foot switch to turn the Leslie speeds up and down is also highly recommended. Personally, I use a device made by Leslie called a Leslie preamp combo pedal. They’re absolutely brilliant and yiu can also put a guitar into them and it will sound truly incredible.
      Like Nick said, if I can do it, so can you.

      @@michaelcorby3681 as a bassist, I truly appreciate your consideration. In my first band the keyboardist used to practice incessantly by himself and my basslines would end up in his left hand - some songs I'd have alternative basslines depending on what he played on the day! It didn't bug me too much because at least he was playing a proper bass line and I could have fun playing around it but some keyboardists would stomp all over me with garbage they'd picked up in piano lessons.
