    With all the new technology you still cannot beat the sound of the Hammond B-3 Keyboard and the Leslie rotating speaker. Thy have an amazing unbeatable sound and these guys do ir right. Absolute perfection, The girls harmony is right on . The groove is smooth. I could listen to this jam all night long. Thanks for the great music and amazing funky groove. Wish there were more bands like this to go out and listen to live. Thanks 1000 times. Made my night.
