Hammond B3 is going to Illinois
I decided to take the organ to Illinois with me to the Cornerstone Festival.Everybody is using “keyboards,”to make organ sounds in live concerts and on recordings.The so called “duplicate sounds,” are cheesy at best.Ever notice Greg Allman always uses the real Hammond organ in his shows?World class groups like “Deep Purple,”now deceased Billy Preston and all the great classics used the real thing.
Everyone says”you gonna move that thing,that will be a lot of work.”Well just call me the hardest working man in the music ministry.Once I get it on the stage an up and running the crowd will know the difference.It’s time to give our God the best we can do.I can certainly do this for his glory.

Hey Rob—I’m sure glad that you brought your Hammond B3. Your Cornerstone show was great. It was great to talk with you and your wife at the fest. Hope you all are doing well. I sure enjoy your CD—the classics—it sure brings back the memories. But you know —-even more —your music—like so much good music and lyrics—it is sort of timeless. It just sounds good—and carries a strong beautiful message. They just don’t make music like this anymore. Thanks for coming to the fest. Please keep on keeping on … as Jesus leads. And remember, Someone wrote John 3:16… and we’re glad he did—and that he meant it.
