Well dammit, I woke up early this morning to the very sad news that the great Ginger Baker has passed! - I saw him with Cream at Winterland in San Francisco, RIP Ginger Baker!
So please enjoy what I think is Bernard Purdie's best-ever performance on a special showcase we did
with my band for Hammond Organs night in the Anaheim Hilton Hotel Lobby just before Keith Emerson's last performance folks - sincerely, Jon Hammond

    Recording my Jazz Combo on Nakamichi 550 Cassette Field Recorder with Sennheiser Microphones Analog Audio for Video

    #WATCHMOVIE HERE: Recording my Jazz Combo on Nakamichi 550 Cassette Field Recorder with Sennheiser Microphones Analog Audio for Video

    Jon's archive https://archive.org/details/ForMyFriendsInTheNakamichiAudiophileGroup

    Jon Hammond at his 1959 Hammond B3 organ + Custom super Leslie speaker built for Jon by Bill Beer Keyboard Products with all JBL speaker and horn components. Audio recorder: Nakamichi 550 dual-tracer cassette field recorder, 2 channels + Blend Channel. 3 Sennheiser microphones. Session recorded in The Ellington Room New York City. Jon uses his Nakamichi HD 25-1 Headphones also in photo:

       

    Story of this music and the musicians:



    by



    Jon Hammond 

    For my friends in the Nakamichi Audiophile Group:
    I used good old Maxell Type II cassette tapes for this live recording date I personally recorded on my Nakamichi
    550, which I am the original owner purchaser of - I plunked down $550 
    cash for my Nak at Harvey Electronics on W. 45th Street NYC in 1976 - I 
    made this recording with 3 Sennheiser
    microphones placed around the bandstand in the Ellington Room - the 
    tune "No X-Cess Baggage Blues" I wrote for my friends at PIA Pakistan International Airlines - they very kindly let me take excess baggage on numerous flights I made with them out of John F. Kennedy International Airport - when you play Hammond Organ, it's impossible to travel light. I go way back with all of these fine musicians - that's Chuggy Carter on the percussion - Ray Grappone drums - Joe Berger aka Joe Berger2 in the string section on his custom built JJ Guitars - tenor saxophonist Todd Anderson, Todd was my teacher for arranging and composition back in 1973 at the Berklee College of Music
    in Beantown MA - Todd is also on my very first album 'Late Rent' one of
    New York's finest - all these cats are veteran players and studio 
    musicians, and I have been around the block a few times myself - yours' 
    truly Jon Hammond at my 1959 Hammond B3 organ and covering the bass as well - through my custom built Bill Beer super high-power Leslie speaker with all JBL
    speaker and horn components - enjoy! *Note: When I'm talking, the audio
    is back to the vid tape - I just plugged an SM-58 in to a little Fender Amp Can battery powered amp - back to basics and analog, big thanks to Willy Hermann Services William Hermann Jr. got my intermittent left channel working! - Jon Hammond Band
    - the "Blend Mic" '3rd channel' Nakamichi system gives a unique 3 
    dimensional sound to live audio recordings - that's why even today the 
    old Grateful Dead heads crave these machines - can't beat it - and you get real good at flipping cassettes! - JH


    Times Square, New York City
    Here I am with one of my all-time heroes, the honorable Terence Hallinan







    Nakamichi 550 Versatile Cassette System The first to make high fidelity on location cassette recording a reality, the 550 is now in use around the world by musicians

    Enjoy this AUDIO program folks - even better with Sennheiser headphones on! I use Sennheiser HD 25 every day & night - Jon Hammond:

    Jon Hammond Behind The Beat Audio Video Portrait ASCAP Composer TV Radio Show Host

    #WATCHMOVIE HERE: Jon Hammond Behind The Beat Audio Video Portrait ASCAP Composer TV Radio Show Host Jon's archive https://archive.org/details/BehindTheBeatBTBASCAPAudioPortraitLateRentJonHammondShow It's my tune dammit Jon Hammond and Roy Clark #RoyClark #HeeHaw Usage http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ Topics MNN TV, #ASCAPEXPO, Jon Hammond, Public Access, Melody, Hammond Organ, Sk1, B3, Accordion, Musicians Union, Local 6, Local 802 Language English Jon Hammond: Late Rent by Steve Rosenfeld Jon Hammond says "the fingers are the singers.’" The latest CD from this exceptional and soulful Hammond organist is the proof. "Late Rent" draws on decades of great recording sessions and top live performances to showcase his own playing and many top jazz and funk artists. It shows why the Hammond organ is one of the most enduring electric instruments and why Hammond is one of its best players. Late Rent Label: Ham-Berger-Friz Records Genre: Jazz All Jon Hammond profiles… The Late Rent Story Jon Hammond waited half his life to make this CD – starting with being an underground TV host. Swingin’ Funky Jazz & Blues Jon Hammond describes his style of music and how he learned to play it. Two Hot Tracks Jon Hammond recalls one of his first songs – from age 15 – and a great Sunday session. Sonny’s Advice A little advice on melody from a great sax player went a long way. http://behindthebeat.com/2004/12/jon-hammond-late-rent/ MNN TV, #ASCAPEXPO, Jon Hammond, Public Access, Melody, Hammond Organ, Sk1, B3, Accordion, Musicians Union, Local 6, Local 802

    I've got some real good stories and tunes with the boys Jon Hammond Band and my 1959 Hammond B3 organ has a lot of stories also, I bought it from the original owners in Lincoln Center - they cried when I came to take it away and I sat with them and assured them I would take good care of it and do good things with it - my Bill Beer Super Leslie speaker was built for me by Bill Beer in Los Angeles back in 1972. He updated it twice, the last time just before he died sadly. It is deadly - has all JBL speaker and horn components and powered by Bill's top secret design bi-amplifier. Al Goff at Goff Professional-Hammond Organs knows more about my Bill Beer Leslie than anybody out there, he was good friends with Bill (Keyboard Products of Los Angeles)! - Jon Hammond Jon Hammond Band, B3, stories, ellington room, music, Funk, Jazz, Times Square
