    I met Brian a few times after a concert with him that I had the pleasure to promote. Brian is such a nice, polite and gentle person and so open minded.

      As a 61 year old Englishman (from Peckham in S.E.London) Brian comes accross as a top top man...he was and still is a SERIOUSLY talented musician and a really lovely man...DONATING those keyboards to local music schools,the great music he produced with Julie Driscoll and the trinity(check out "season of the witch" live with Julie and the band) and then with Orbital Express...GREAT music,he asked Brian "what religion are you?" Brian's great answer "my religion is being kind to people" says it all! ,thanks,all the best,peace love and happiness to you all,from Piers a.k.a. Chopper.

    In 2000 I had a studio in Los Angeles and our drummer said he was at the Baked Potato the night before and saw Brian play and it occurred to him that Brian would be great on the tune we were working on. So we called him and offered him $200 for one song. He said yes! We went to his place and loaded his silver sparkle B3 into his trailer and off to the studio we went. He was great, very gracious and played just what we had in our heads. He said he thought it was quite a catchy little tune. Thanks Brian!

    This man was a very respected musician in London in the 60’s and ‘70’s and beyond. His band, The Trinity, performed in all the best clubs and he had many superb vocalists join him. He is most famous for partnering with a singer, Julie Driscoll, and they had a hit record with “Wheels on Fire”. I photographed Julie some years later, living in a small council flat in Notting Hill, London, the glory days long gone.

(Incidentally, I notice you were noticing at the carvings on his C-3...those are called Quatrefoils, and were present on the church-cabinet Hammond consoles starting with the prewar Model C and subsequent models up through the early years of the C-3 - 3 series production commenced January 1955 - until around November 1958 when they made the C-3 cabinet smooth sided for the remainder of its production life through 1975.)

    One of best interactive interviews I’ve heard in a long time. I loved hearing Brian play, and his recollections about his musical journey. Very inspiring. 🙏🏼🎹
