Peter, My fault. I did not express specifically what I meant by hoaky "roller-rink" organists. On Quebec's 45 sessions, it does have that hoaky "roller-rink" organ sound, but by no means, did I mean to include, group, catergorize or generalize other organists within the organ genre, such as Larry Young, Lonnie Smith, or John Patton, who don't sound like hoaky roller-rink organists whatsoever! Just Edwin Swanston, Sir Charles Thompson, and Earl Van Dyke do sound like hoaky roller-rink organists. My opinion, of course. Hope that clarifies my postion. HG

Reid Miles' crazy genius imagination. How did he stretch "The Rumproller" sleeve like that back in 1965 with no modern technology?

👍 Now playing:

Yes! Track five, Bossa De Luxe. 👍 Wow. Just added to my buy list. Agree! 👍

Sad, sad news, RIP.

Wow! That is cool, and sounding that good in the mid-eighties. Huge Horace nut as well. Thanks for the review, I knew I was going to buy it, but it's reassuring to hear that it's really good! Repackaged as Early Circle? If so, great stuff 👍 My favorite Russell!

Wow, great stuff, just listening to Caddy for Daddy.

Thoughts! Terrific play list! Thoughts on the Alice Coltrane! I need to listen to this. Whatever happened, I hope you and your family are okay... Album jacket always made me uncomfortable, but my opinion, their best record

Being Catholic too, I totally relate! "Catholic churches were dark & somber in general, so it makes sense that I'd think that about the organ playing." My parents being devout Catholics allowed me after my confirmation to attend church by myself (lols) because I didn't, but the the funny thing is when I actually did go, and they started that tithing BS mid-mass, with somebody playing that hoaky organ music (hoaky church, not hoaky rolling rink) they would hold that basket on that 20 foot-long arm (I swear that pole was as long as a football field!) rattling that basket in front of me for what seem like hours, I was like, can I help you? I'm like, this is my 7-11 money!

Exactly what I need to do: I need to live with this set. Earlier in my listening life, I would've chucked this, but as I get older, I live with it, because as JSngry said, Ike is a baaadaaass man, and he is! So I'm hoping this set grows on me over more listens. PS I really like everything else, and I really love Ike's tone, I just have to get past that hoaky-ass sounding organ!

Nice overview of hoaky soundy organs. Yep. Still sounds rolller rinky hoaky to me.

Listining now, if it was just the Ike Quebec trio, minus the hoaky roller rink organ, highly recommended.

Fantastic get together earlier tonight, and a brunch date set for tomorrow, but having trouble settling down; hopefully this amazing Silver set will do it:

Beastie Boys' heavy sampling of Steig in "Sure Shot"

Never seen this before, looks fascinating, esp. Karl Berger there. Is this, this?
