    It's now August 2023......I'm still "addicted" to hearing this song/music of the late 60's which I first heard over the radio then.

    On reconnait toujours le son d'un Hammond B3. C'est spécial et majestueux. C'est le premier orgue que j'ai eu à 12 ans. À ce moment je ne savais vraiment pas que j'avais un bijou entre les mains.

    Sorry to write back in english, but my spanish would be so bad nobody could read it. Thank you very much for the compliments. Yes that's true the sound and the playing feeling of the vintage Hammond tonewhell organs is unique and will never be copied and reached by digital clones and keyboards. The backing tracks are from the sequencer of the keyboard on top of the B3. It's not a midi file but the idea is similar i think.

    Excellent work here! Now, let it be known that the comment (OVER 7 years ago) on the sound of today's Hammond organs goes back that far. I can say from years of experience with Hammond organs that if your digital organ has the Hammond logo on it, it is NOT a clone! It is the progression of the instrument and the sound is excellent.
    I took lessons at a Hammond organ dealer starting in 1966 for 4 years. These organs were all on the showroom floor back in that day and if your of an age when the vintage instruments were all the rage, there was always comparisons among ALL the tonewheel models and how they all sound 'different' from each other - and that conversation still goes on today. And so it goes.
    Having had an A-100, C3, E-100 and all various Leslies, I have now settled with an SK2 and Studio 12 Leslie, it is a killer rig and NOT just in my opinion. Just bought the optional Hammond pedal board for it and now it is basically a console model. Anyone that owns an XK-3c, SK series or the new 5 model or a full C and B console organ can attest to the sound of these new instruments. not to mention the updated Leslie speakers to go with them. Yeah, they are more expensive then the 'clones', but I won't have any other unless it has that familiar 'H' logo on it (O:
