It's amazing how few know or mention Par Lindh, the guy is simply amazing and if yu add to this that he started as Baroque Organ player with great success among the Classical community that is far mre demanding than us, seems unbelievable.

Most songs by the Iron Butterfly feature simple yet atmospheric and original organ leads by the dynamic Doug Ingle. But if I had to choose 10 songs over all, and not just bands, then it would probably be...

Tarkus - ELP - just stunning
In-A-Gadda-DA-Vida - IB
Tab in the Ocean - Nektar
Rick Wakeman at Lincoln Cathedral - RW
Karn Evil 9 - ELP
Jane Seymour - Rick Wakeman
Alpha Centauri - Tangerine Dream
Going for the One - Rick Wakeman
My Mirage - Iron Butterfly
/Long Time - Boston
Give him an internet applause by tapping your fingers lightly on the keyboard.

Peter you know Bach's organ works? Quite a miracle several centuries after his death......... Now Peter go and point at the porcelain (to borrow from Dame Edina Everidge's Aussie alt ego, Barry McKenzie in the 70's).
The best eclectic music on the Web,8-11pm BST/GMT THURS.

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.
