For serious Hammond-drenched action, the Swedish duo Bootcut's two CDs are a must:
Hammonds vs. Drums (2001)
De Fluff (2006)
Amazing!!

Khan's "Space Shanty" have some brilliant Hammond works, one of my favourites...

agreed, though I think 'Magicians Hat' and 'Attic Thoughts' are slighty superior to that album.

The brilliant Egg have had a couple of mentions so far, but they've been oddly overlooked by most posters. The debut is good, but The Polite Force is their masterpiece IMO. Dave Stewart also added some very tasty organ to Hatfield and the North and National Health.
Bo Hansson's Lord of the Rings is an enjoyable psychedelic organ fest which should also have more prominence here.

I actually love the later stuff more,just pointing out that there was a stylistic change.Planets and Time To Turn are worth checking out (but get the remasters) if you decide to go further with them.

As already mentioned Eloy's early albums are well worth checking out if you love organ driven prog ,but stop at Power And The Passion (1975). After that they developed a space rock approach that typified their sound up to the present time. |
Unfortunatelly you are right. I've got "Dawn" and "Ocean" and there are almost no organ  . I suppose that their next records are similar...but maybe I will check them some day 'cause I've got big sentiment to them  .

Some great "plastic sounding" organ on there, gets right in your face. Love it.

You are right - slip of the keyboard  ...
I believe they did release a 3CD set giving the whole of the three Japansese concerts called Live In Japan, but it's the original Made In Japan album I have. Actually I think they have released every concert Purple Mk.II ever played on CD by now...

Funny, I've just been listening to Live in Japan - Jon Lord really rocks on that album! His Hendrix-like freakouts on Lazy and Space Truckin' especially are just red hot. |
Great choice!  Though, of course, some people will start arguing that MiJ is not prog... I don't know whether it's been mentioned yet, but I think Caravan's second album, "If I Could Do It All Over Again, I Would Do It All Over You", features some stellar organ work by Dave Sinclair - especially in the marvellous "For Richard", which the band perform live to this day.

Just got Spock's Beard album "V" and the Hammond B-3 work is very evident and extensive throughout. Love it.

Focus Moving Waves
ELP Tarkus
Triumvirat Spartacus or anything before the atrocious a la Carte album.
Deep Purple Live in Japan ( the original one ) I didn`t really like Jon Lord`s playing when he switched from his Hammond to Yamaha gear.
Yes Yessongs
