Delaware Dave Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I beg to differ, I actually think he gets alot of respect. I know i started a thread about him at least a year ago. I think the big blowup was the recent posting and quite frankly that particular video was not very impressive, especially the vocal part of the video (at least that's how i saw it.) But damn, the cat can play. 1 Quote 57 Hammond B3; 69 Hammond L100P; 68 Leslie 122; Kurzweil Forte7 & PC3; M-Audio Code 61; Voce V5+; Neo Vent; EV ELX112P; GSI Gemini & Burn Delaware Dave Exit93band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outkaster Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 He can play but there are some gospel guys that are out of this world also. That is where the Hammond market is now, the churches.

nadroj Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 He isn’t my cup of tea - not melodic enough for my tastes. However he’s an excellent performer, musician and a modern champion of the Hammond, and I’ll be the first in line to buy tickets if he ever comes up my way.

Adan Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I'd definitely steal some of his licks, which is probably the highest compliment I can give. If we pretend for a moment that we really have to decide who's "best," who are his rivals? I wouldn't compare his to anyone playing jazz. It has to be blues or blues-rock. I also wouldn't compare him to anyone who is not leading their own group. I you played like that in a supporting role your bandmates would tell you to chill out or split. So is it Lachy Doly versus Grace Potter for the championship? Is there anyone else in this race? Does anyone really care? 3 Quote Gigging: Crumar Mojo 61, Hammond SKPro Home: Vintage Vibe 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Verelst Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 In dutch lach means smile/laugh, so to me the association of a grinning Tom Dooley is a lot less attractive than something cool like "turner overdrive" or something.

Maybe because we're done beating on Paul Shaffer, and he's up next??? Or is it, "he's up again"??? I'd originally posted the Lachy "Gimmer Some..." video to show how he used the drawbars in his solo -- which only 1 person commented on; then when that poster started a new thread about manipulating drawbars in a solo, it got much less attention than all the "pile on" comments (5 pages worth).

ProfD Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 This particular group within the KC contingent gives the guy as much love as he's going to get anywhere. As mentioned above, there's a number of musicians who fly under the KC radar. For those musicians, either their music and/or playing style is not the preferred beverage of choice among this group. Otherwise, Lachy Doley could be the modern Rock organist face of this forum.🤣😎 Quote PD "The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return."--E.

Baldwin Funster Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I don't think Lachy's main followers are predominantly keyboard players. I don't hear him listed in any greatest 10 lists even though I believe he could give anybody a run for their money. Didn't he offer an online dojo for like $200 a month? It got a few jeers on the Corner. Quote FunMachine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Towne Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 There are people on this forum who turn their nose at Joey DeFrancesco and Hiromi, so you’re never going to find a player whose name isn’t “Emerson” or “Wakeman” or “Hancock” that is going to get universal love. 3 Quote Endorsing Artist/Ambassador for MAG Organs and Motion Sound Amplifiers, Organ player for SRT - www.srtgroove.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RABid Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 If he was not playing in the 70's and 80's I don't know him. I'm a bit slow to grasp anything new. 🐢 On 10/11/2023 at 3:44 PM, Baldwin Funster said: Didn't he offer an online dojo for like $200 a month? It got a few jeers on the Corner. Oh, wait. I do remember something about that. He has an online course. Unfortunately it is for organ, not guitar. That means the market is a small fraction of what it would be for guitar lessons, thus the price needed to cover the expense of filming and production is much higher. Much higher. Have to say though, if I was young and just starting out as a keyboardist this could be a very valuable course. But, I'm in my mid-60's and anything I learn from it would be forgotten by next month.

Can't talk about the history of vocalist / organ players without bringing Lee Michaels into it, though in my opinion Lee is more like a singer who also plays whereas Lachy is a player who also sings. And of course Greg Allman takes it even further in the direction of singing talent overshadowing all else. So guys, I think we need to wrap this discussion up so that we have a few days before the next "how can anyone not love Lachy Doly?" thread.
