  • It's a funky Friday out there somewhere, so here goes up-tempo Hammond Organ blues just for you.....my take on what it's all about.....
    as I tell my students, this is improvisation.....you make it up as you go along.....within a framework of chords and rhythm, you create a brand-new harmonic structure.....a "composition on the spot", if you will :0) please enjoy my creation !

    Hey Mike. Growing up, a good friend of mine had an organ like yours in his living room. He started taking lessons at a young age and I used to sit beside him and listen to him play using all the bells and whistles of that amazing instrument. I could listen to you play all day. Brings back some wonderful memories. Thanks for sharing your music with us. Keep it up!

    Mike, can you explain how to play the technique you play with both hands several times on the lower manual (starting at 4:58) and on the upper manual (starting at 5:42). Which chords are you playing? Does this technique have a certain name?

    • @mikereed3444
      @mikereed3444  5 лет назад +4

      well,,,,,my organist friends and colleagues have named my thing "The Chop". It is "block-chord" styling plus the rhythmic drumming that I do with it. You play the same thing in both hands, an octave apart, and drive them up the keyboard in a rhythm pattern of your choosing. I've been doing it for over 50 years professionally. It helps greatly that I am also a drummer/percussionist. Thanks for asking and enjoying :0)

    Some people say blues cant be played on a LSI Hammond how wrong they are.

    • @mikereed3444
      @mikereed3444  9 лет назад +10

      Thank you for your thoughts.....I played B-3 for over 30 years, and the feel really is almost the same.....you just push the Grandee model Hammond, and it gives you what you want .....and I'm not gentle with it!

  • @Wanamaker1946
