Listen/Download Funky16Corners 10th Anniversary Pt4 – Organs

Greetings all

I hope you’re all digging the mixes this week.

Those of you that stop by here on the reg know that I am deep into the Hammond thing, with several boxes of 45s (and a grip of LPs) devoted to the sound.

I am a Hammond nut from way back, but got seriously into collecting the sound after Finewine and Pat James Longo put together the ‘Vital Organs’ comp back at the end of the 90s.

As has been recounted here before, my man Mr Luther dropped a copy of that very comp on me back in ’99, and it promptly blew my mind.

It was the collection that set me out in search of Hammond 45s (especially Toussaint McCall’s ‘Shimmy’ and Louis Chachere’s ‘The Hen’ which immediately became favorites), and the digging never stopped. Though I probably don’t search with the same vigor I did in the early days, there are a couple of 45s in this mix that I only managed to get my hands on in the last year.

That all said, this is a particularly groovy mix, which I have listened to all the way through a number of times since completing it.

If you dig yourself a nice, gritty organ 45, I think you’ll dig it too.

   I’m really looking forward to this one. The Hammond was my entry point into jazz and there’s nothing like a swinging soul jazz track to get you moving.
