Hush....welll... maybe not that song.. LOL

but  take his organ work on  the prog workout that had been  Ike and Tina Turner's song 'River Deep and Mountain High'  OMG... 

Lord is... severly underappreciated in many ways... not only  as a player

Anglagard's album Hybris is definitely high on my list. Definitely a top ten spot for me.

"Hoedown" by ELP Big%20smile. And also everything on Foxtrot. Just listen to the Hammond in Watcher of the Skies!!

My gosh, first I see that "Big Co**" topic, now "Organ Performances"?  This place has gotten really puerile of late. ;)

Can't think of a specific one, but Emerson sticking daggers in his organ was quite the performance.

/QUOTE]

I thought about much the same thing when I saw this thread yesterdayLOL...

Back IT, off the top of my head I can mention Emerson in "The Barbarian", anything by Jon Lord, and Rick Wakeman's at the beginning of "Seasons of Man", the fourth movement of CTTE. Ah, and David Sinclair in "For Richard", and anything by Dave Stewart.
