    Great songs folks liked them all, my parents owned a Hammond that we use to have allot of fun with.

    My older brother was the musically inclined one in the family and he could play well , as for myself I just plunked a little.

    My younger brother owns the Hammond now

    Here's a video of 4 maestros of the famous B3 playing " The Cat "

    Hey, Homer, did they play "gospel" songs on it? Gospel is great played on the Hammond.

    Two great examples of Hollywood's love for Hammond Gosepl music:

    From the Blues Brothers and from the movie True Stories, the brain child of David Byrne of Talking Heads: Puzzlin' Evidence, if you don't want to see the intro with Puzzling Evidence, skip ahead to 1:48 for some kick a$$ hammond gospel, by the way, True Stories is one of the best, I said the best quirky movies ever made:
