I'm a sucker for a good bit of whirly Hammond organ. Which are your favourite Hammond organ-rich tracks?

MartinS, are you a fan of the British sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf? One of the main characters there (Rimmer) was also a fan of Hammond organ, which was not viewed positively by his shipmates - the source of much humor on the show!

I love that show, they're doing repeats at the minute. MartinS, if you saw the show you would not take kindly to Mac57 comparing you to Rimmer...

Do you know, a friend of mine loved it, but I've only ever seen a couple of episodes.

moss918, I wasn't comparing ANYBODY to Rimmer! You are right, that would be quite an insult!

I love the Hammond when used in Blues and Jazz.

If you listen to Barfly by Ray LaMontagne, that's the kind of Hammond organ that really floats my boat.

I dunno if it's a Hammond organ or not but about the only piece of music I like organ in is The Band's Chest Fever.

Excellent choice. Saw him at the Apollo in London earlier this month, breathtaking.
