Yeah! Great organ sound! Love the Hammond - I have a setting for it on my keyboard, use it quite a bit in recording (a real Hammond, I believe, costs in the thousands of dollars or maybe tens of thousands range).
This song of yours is powerful, intense - reminds me of the theme music to a cop/action TV show. Nice, full soloing, too - you have the feel for how you really have to lean into an organ to make it rock.

Thanks Tim
your comment was very thorough and well said . im always amazed
at how intense u guys  write up your comment.s wishi had that knack
for what we could critic  style. anyway a million thanks actually who

you wonderful people and a great site such as songcrafters HAVE
A GREAT WEEKEND NEIL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ferryman]

Nice uptempo feel here Neil and great arrangement as always. Gotta love that Hammond sound - you really get that to suit your music really well, nice lead part over the track. I used to play in a band where the keyboard player had one of the original Hammond organs, boy that thing weighed a ton!

Cheers,

Nigel

Nice, Neil! You have posted a couple of interesting song ideas that would all sound really good with vocals. Which brings up the question: Are you looking for vocalists, or is your music meant to remain mostly instrumental?

Regards,

Hi Neil, glad this got a bump, I'm surprised I missed it. I too have have humped Hammond B3's and twin Leslie cabinets when I was pro but the sound was worth every last effort. Top notch........Willie

[SwanSong]
