The Hammond B-3 organ has been in my life from the very early days of my career. It was there throughout my musical evolution from Rock to R&B and on to jazz. In the early Eighties, I moved to Philly and began singing at the “salt and mostly pepper” jazz club Jewel’s on Broad St., where for 4 years I was the house singer with an organ trio made up of local Philly cats. At the time I didn’t know it, but I was at B-3 jazz ground zero. Jewel’s was host to headliners such as Groove Holmes, Jack McDuff, Jimmy McGriff, Shirley Scott, local favorite Trudy Pitts and a very young Joey DeFrancesco. I was in heaven. The organ trio sound had now become a major part of my musical fiber. We had a good long run at Jewel’s. Sadly, years later the club closed and, for various reasons, I moved back to upstate New York.
I spent the next era with piano. One day on a trio gig, Dino Losito used the organ sound on his keyboard and we both knew where we were headed. We loved it and dove into the sound, working solely as an organ trio for the past 6 years, and it led to this recording. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/nancykelly22

very nice! thanks
ReplyDeleteThank You Scoredaddy!
ReplyDeleteMy first impression is hearing a band, and not a singer with musicians. Tight like a band, where every one had a specific duty. The organ player add sparkles here, but not by playing in all corner : just what it takes to make you smile. Real excellent jazz record.
ReplyDeleteHey Mario B, Thank You!
