Albums: Vanilla Fudge - Near The Beginning, Atlantis Philharmonic - Same, Fuzzy Duck - Same & all three albums of Hansson & Karlsson are on my list!! You have to look on this once again more carefully :-) (this is top 353 not top 100 !!). Anyway I'll inlclude Uriah Heep's "Live" soon & I'll have to check the rest of the albums which you've written 'cause I've never listened to them. Edited by ozzy_tom - September 24 2007 at 06:58 |

And you get the big thumbs-up from me.... though I would spare a mention for "In Rock" as well. Another great organ-driven album is Atomic Rooster's "Death Walks Behind You".... Lots of great organ-driven stuff in the Heavy Prog section! |

Tarkus and Deep Purple's "Made in Japan" are probably my favourites.

how about Men of Lake's first 2 albums - "Riva" and "Out of the Water"?
Very old style hammond sound. Their followup "Music from
the Land of..." was more diverse and less organ dependent.

Indeed Jimmy Row, it was Ozzy Tom his Hammond Organ Album Top 100 list
About that Hammond organ special, at this moment I am collecting material like pictures I made at the home of a Hammond organ collector (including the mighty B3) and at a festival in Arnhem with Focus, a few years ago. Thanks to Verslibre and this thread for the inspiration to start preparing that Hammond organ Special

Jimmy Row: excellent list, very varied and comprehensive
Personally I would like to add:
Julian's Treatment - Waiters On The Dance
Hardin & York - Live In The 70's
The Spencer Davis Group - Live In Europe
Vanilla Fudge - Near The Beginning
Uriah Heep - Live
Atlantis Philharmonic - Same
Fuzzy Duck - Same
Greenslade - Live 1975
Hansson & Karlson - Same (CD compilation of their three albums)
Verslibre, in November and December I have a 24 days vacation, I will have floods of time to make that promised Hammond organ special, including quotes by known progrock musicians I have interviewed during the years and many interesting facts, I am looking forward to publish it.

Yes, the same organ he used to record GFTO with Yes (same time-period: 1977). So, both Wakeman's "Criminal Record" and Yes, GFTO, should be added to the list...
