Whatever Happened To....

Procol Harem's Whiter Shade of Pale would not sound the same without it. Booker T played one with the MG's on the reference-funky Time Is Tight




Larry Young played one with Tony Williams's Lifetime and Georgie Fame played one with The Blue Flames. Stevie Winwood played one with Traffic, Blind Faith and in his solo career: that's him playing the blues solo on Voodoo Chile with Jimi Hendrix. Keith Emerson played one and so did Rick Wakeman with Yes. John Lord of Deep Purple played one, as did Keith Jarrett when he was in Miles' Live Evil band. Brian Auger backed Julie Driscoll with one to make this psychedelic version of a Byrds song...

... and then it vanished. RIP.... the Hammond electric organ.
