yorgatron Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 wouldn't there be a roster of session guys that played at Capitol Records around that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Golly Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 wouldn't there be a roster of session guys that played at Capitol Records around that time? Yeah, I'm checking for that, but can't find anything about an organist; Bill Miller was the pianist for Ol'Blue Eyes for years... don't hear any piano on the track (not that it's not there, but I don't hear any in the mix), so maybe Bill played organ on that track?

B3Nut Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I'd almost be willing to bet it was Ernie Freeman. Freeman was known to play organ on Sinatra sessions as well as doing a bunch of his arranging through the 60's. One of Freeman's Hammond recordings under his own name surfaced on the Organs In Orbit CD from Capitol's "Ultra-Lounge" series, a pretty cool version of "Ray's Rockhouse." The organ on the track here certainly sounds like it could be Ernie's playing, I wouldn't be surprised. I'll dig in the Hamtech archives...I remember some discussion a few years back about organ on Ol' Blue Eyes's discs. Todd in Cheesecurdistan --- Todd A. Phipps "...no, I'm not a Hammondoholic...I can stop anytime..." http://www.facebook.com/b3nut ** http://www.blueolives.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steadyb Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'm pretty sure Ava Gardner played his organ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
