A Whiter Shade Of Pale


 

Hi all fellow Hammondeers!

If you look at Matthew Fisher's web site he states quite categorically
that the organ used on this track was indeed an M series organ, an M102
if I remember correctly.

A friend of mine used to do organ club gigs on an L100 with a 145 Leslie
and also he had a regular gig at a restaurant called the "Fleur De Lys"
near Walsall England and it became a bit of a mecca for organ nuts, the
organ there was an L100 with a 122 Leslie and very good it sounded too,
he produced some pretty good bluesy sounds and although not up to the
standard of the C3 or B3 it was easier to carry around split than the C
or B would have been.

Best Wishes to all.

Amanda Hambidge


 

I've also read the same on a 'site somewhere.

Just having listened to the track, I see no reason why
the rumours couldn't be true....The M certainly sounds
great with my uncool (900) Leslie so with the 147/122
it must be tops. The B/C is a must if you want
reasonably low bass with your LH however, no way
around that one; although the M's & L's can still do
99% of the same sounds if you;re not worried about the
bottom octave....
Cheers, Alex

PS do you have a URL for Matthew Fisher's web site?
Don't think I've seen that one?
