HammondDave Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Hard to argue with that list. Glad that Al Kooper is on it. And I am sure that Jim A would agree that someone so young and promising needs a long, distinguished career before being eligible. Jim will be there, one day.

Phnymiboy Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 And Dave I'm sure one Mr. Lord would have been honored that he was included in this list of great players more so than the lame ass RRHOF. http://bigfun3.bandcamp.com www.facebook.com/BigFunThree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mate stubb Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Good list. I wasn't familiar with Twinkie, checking her out now. Hopefully Mark Stein and the prog guys - Emo, Vincent Crane, Banks - will get in soon. Moe --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to gripe. I still think Jim ought to be added sooner rather than later. I bought his whole discography earlier this year and I'm already one or two releases behind. One bad dog, playing, singing, producing, touring, and whatnot. --wmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StartRun Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Emerson, Auger, Winwood, Booker T & of course-Jimmy Smith all richly deserved. One could only imagine how many Hammonds they sold through their playing. Would love to see the likes of Paul Schaffer and Rod Argent be included in the second class.

Threadslayer Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I didn't know that Fats Waller was a Hammond guy. Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect. -Mark Twain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yannis D Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 No Medeski (maybe 'cause he primarly is a multi keyboardist?) Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outkaster Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Weird list there are so many great players. "Danny, ci manchi a tutti. La E-Street Band non e' la stessa senza di te. Riposa in pace, fratello" noblevibes.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEB Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 A few exclusions I hate to see but you can't put in everyone or there will be no one left to put in next year. Lenny Dee and Cherry Wainer would have been nice. One guy who is a multi instrument talent I would personally like to see recognized because he get little recognition is Joachim Young RIP. He was a tremendous talent. PS - well poo.... Jack McDuff didn't make the cut either. "It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool" - Mitch Towne "A great musician can bring tears to your eyes!!!

b3plyr Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Since Joey D is included, I would have expected to see Tony Monaco also in the list. In many ways he is a trailblazer. Not just in his playing, but in his dedication to Jazz Organ (read B3 style) education. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losendoskeys Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 No Banks so it's not representative IMHO.

joegerardi Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Nothing wrong with the list, but is anyone else getting tired of all the "Halls of Fame" that now exist? So many seems to diminish the purpose. I see the day when there's a Hall of Fame Hall of Fame, where the people that are inducted are those that have been in more Halls of Fame than anyone else. ..Joe Setup: Korg Kronos 61, Roland XV-88, Korg Triton-Rack, Motif-Rack, Korg N1r, Alesis QSR, Roland M-GS64 Yamaha KX-88, KX76, Roland Super-JX, E-Mu Longboard 61, Kawai K1II, Kawai K4.
