Your favorite Hammond Organ performances!

Jean-Jacques Kravetz's solo on Frumpy 2's 'How The Gypsy was Born', includes many of the tricks rock organists employed.

I've noticed a near complete dearth of any call-outs for Juergen Fritz...that's kind of sad... My favorite of his remains "Panic on 5th Avenue" off of Old Loves Die Hard, but there are many others I could list off, "Lucky Girl" certainly included.

Thanks, Criswell; it is sad, really; the man Juergen Fritz has not lifted a finger in the direction of Triumvirat for several decades, now; he has been musically active, but only in other ways....it was his 71st birthday on March 12th....I get the feeling the man has considered Triumvirat a done deal for a very long time.. but us fans are still avidly listening to his sublime work! He has been in communication very recently with former Triumvirat singer David Hanselmann; who knows what may happen!

The first track on the Orange Peel self-titled album from 1970 is an 18-minute song based on Hammond organ and guitar dazzling interplaying. The beginning of "You Can't Change Them All" starts mellow and lovely, then builds in intensity and psychedelic quality over time. Ralph Wiltheiß is responsible for a truly bravura organ performance in what I personally consider the best heavy-psych song of its time.
