Reezekeys Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 This had me lusting for a Hammond when I was 13 years old. Last I heard Lee was running a seafood restaurant on the USA west coast. Frosty passed a few years ago. [video:youtube] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Force Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Lee Michaels and Frosty! What a team! Absolutely the LOUDEST concert I ever attended, June 1973 at the Detroit Masonic Temple. I think they were pissed off the gig shifted to this smaller venue from I think the Ford Theatre and decided to keep the power levels at the same setting...

Adan Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Never heard of Soule Monde, that's some hot stuff. I've seen Will Blades many times, he's a Bay Area boy, but didn't know he collab'ed with Martin.

Shamanczarek Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Dave Teegarden and Skip Van Winkle had a minor hit in 1970 with "God, Love and Rock & Roll". Both worked with Bob Seger most notably on the album Smokin' OP's. Van Winkle was a member of Robby Krieger's band in the 90s.

Morrissey Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I'll add Benevento/Russo duo. Marco Benevento and Joe Russo. They were active in the early 2000s. They used a lot of technology to push the boundaries of what an organ/drums duo could be. These two don't play much anymore as just a duo but have gone on to bigger projects in the jamband world, including collaborations with members of Grateful Dead and Phish. Here is a studio version and live version of one of their more popular songs, Sunny's Song. Notice that the drummer has a keyboard, too. In the beginning of the live video, he triggers chords on a sample pad, to free up the Benevento the play other keyboard parts.

Morrissey Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Big fan of Soule Monde (Ray Paczkowski & Russ Lawton, from the Trey Anastasio Band): Great video. I've never been to the Brooklyn Bowl but, from videos, musicians sure do seem to like playing there. Tons of great performances from that stage!

MAJUSCULE Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Larry Young with Elvin Jones [video:youtube] I also remembering either reading about or hearing that CT and DG would sometimes play Squibcakes as a duet, either as a show opener or to give the rest of the band a break mid-set. Not sure if there are any recordings of that or if forum members who would have seen the classic lineup can attest to that, but I imagine it would have been mindblowing.

To B3 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Not to derail the thread, but seems to me that the duos are in general much more adventurous to expand the sound than the organ trios, going much more beyond the same old 888 3rd perc thing the whole time (with the ocasional squabling or full out stabs here and there)... Seems a little controversial to me that a style so associated with freedom, as jazz, gets so attached to the traditional sounds... Any examples of classic trios or duos, to maintain the theme, that go beyond that in jazz? When funk/soul/rock is thrown in, things looke more intesresting in therms of sound choice to me...

When funk/soul/rock is thrown in, things looke more intesresting in therms of sound choice to me...I hear this! There's Soulive, which isn't strictly "jazz," I suppose, and of course, there's Medeski Martin and Wood (which isn't really a traditional organ trio instrumentation, since there's a bass player rather than a horn or second chordal instrument that leaves the organist to cover the bassline), but I'd also be interested to hear about some other more "progressive" organ trios as well. I did just remember seeing a fun organ trio on tour, a band called -- wait for it -- Organ Freeman. Definitely more of a funk/jam band situation stylistically, more rock than Soulive and not as avant-jazz as MMW. Very fun to see as an unexpected opening act.

Why don"t you start a trio thread? Would be interesting to see if there is the same level of timbral and stylistic diversity, or, will they all sound like some approximated variation of the Jimmy Smith Trio?

For that, check out Joshua Redmon and Elastic. Brian Blades on drums and Sam Yahel on B3, Rhodes, and Yamaha CS-15D (which the old farts from Downbeat didn't like). On this cut and others Redman drops out and they effectively become an organ drum duo. Starting 2:00 here. [video:youtube] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamanczarek Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Alan Haven and Tony Crombie. This appears to be a "hand-sync" performance but Haven still puts in over-the-top body moves to wrench out every note. This is from an episode of the Cilla Black Show which featured all Beatles music. She was friends with The Beatles going back to the Cavern Club. They wrote the theme song for her show and Lennon and McCartney made an appearance on this episode. The organ used here looks like a Lowrey DSO-1 Heritage Deluxe which is the same type The Beatles used on "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". Haven often worked with soundtrack composer Barry Gray.
