Hammond Report July 21 2020 From Pandemic Quarantino Jon Hammond - daily Music and Stories from organist & accordionist Jon Hammond, today's story about 'miracle gig' returning to the Birdland Hamburg after 7 years, I got there real early when the owner Hr. Dieter Reichert opened up. When I set up my organ, to my horror my EXP-100A Expression Pedal was not working, yikes, essential component of Hammond organ for expression! I tried everything with the cable and resetting organ, nothing worked. Showtime was 21:00 (9PM) the doors open up and everybody files in - full club. Bingo! the pedal started working, and worked throughout the rest of the night. After that it never worked again - the expression pedal was dead ever after this gig - beautiful tenor playing from my greatly missed friend Lutz Büchner, with Heinz Lichius drums, Ed Harris guitar and yours truly Jon Hammond at the XB-2 Hammond organ "BBQ Lily" one of my originals.
I'll be back with another Hammond Report tomorrow folks on 22nd of July! Be careful out there, wear your masks in public everybody,
Jon Hammond - Jon Hammond Band
