| Does anyone have any idea what type of organ Dave Stewart used on The Rotter's Club? Just curious. |

Didn't most of the Canterbury bands use a Hammond through a Wah and a distorted Leslie cabinet? -------------   |

Not really. I just call 'em all Hammonds. I'm not positive that Stewart's using one at all, that's just a hunch. I'm sure there's some vintage gearheads on here who know much better than I do.

The Canterbury sound seemed to be achieved by driving the Hammond through various pedals and a straight amp/speaker combo rather than a Leslie. Dave Sinclair of Caravan had a Hammond A100 which was bought for him by his father and which he continued to play until relatively recently. It's a bulky item and was stripped down and split into two for gigging. ------------- When people get lost in thought it's often because it's unfamiliar territory. |
