I bet their neighbors get mad when they stop playing.

Haters gonna hate cause they don’t live next door to this guy.

haha best comment i've seen today man

[@harpothehealer]

Excellent comment best regards

[@organfreak]

Guess who the neighbors are? The Fire Department!

[@japhyvansan]

The organ players left hand independence is mind blowing

[@organfreak]

He got a head start by being a drummer first.

[@n.e.nichtmaus927]

See also: *John Medeski* of Medeski, Martin & Wood. I feel strongly that the incomparably beautiful Leslie speakers should only go to the best organists (think Stradivarius violins to only the finest), so I’m glad he’s got one too. (or did in earlier KEXT session; I didn’t have video for this one tho eep) Hope DLo3 get to play a hundred gigs this summer for sure!

[@mondocane4336]

Don't be fooled. It's two guys under that jacket.

[@Dyundu]

@@n.e.nichtmaus927 I hear you on that. I hope to one day earn my own Leslie.

[@Jay_Percival]

Don't forget he is playing the bass pedals with his feet at the same time 🤯❤

[@pomod]

I love how Jimmy James just plugs straight in and then just casually leans back and turns up his amp for solos - Awesome.

[@bPcrazydave]

Looks like he’s using the Hot Rod Deluxe. I’m guessing he’s just switching to the Drive channel.

[@gaziltapig]

@@bPcrazydave Im wondering why hes not using a pedal, or something.

[@MrAll300]

@@bPcrazydave is it a hot rod deluxe?

[@jonhattanrai]

I miss David McGraw on drums too, but this guy is also a pocket machine. And the sound of that snare is snappy AF, and those Istanbul Mehmet are the perfect match.

[@tybowesformerlygoat-x7760]

Yeah, he's tight, hey. Miss the accountants subtle grin, though.

[@delvon]

He hasn't been in this band since 2018. Scheduling issues.

[@jonhattanrai]

@@delvon Wow! The legend himself answered me a comment! :D Thanks for your music, it's damn good!

[@delvon]

@@jonhattanrai Thanks for diggin' us!!!

[@delvonlamarrorgantrio746]

Thanks Jonhattan, I appreciate the kind words! I’m trying my best to fill the shoes of previous drummers! And yes, I love my Istanbul Mehmet Cymbals, they are exactly what I was looking for. If you have questions about them, holler at me!! -Dan

[@betterwithrum]

Lamarr killing it on the bass, on the organ. These guys are an American treasure.

[@nandrey69]

Holy sh*t that pause at 18:23. It's so good it's almost illegal

Thank you

Thank god. No Black Party story!

[@djbryson]

From The Streets. That is my fav. It has a hip-hop feel to it.

[@boogieoogie785]

Tickets brought as they are playing Manchester's Band on The Wall in May 2024..............I'm lucky..

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

I grew up with my 85 yr old neighbor playing the organ. Anything like this makes me feel warm, cuddley, and safe. His name was Ernie Battery in Torrance, California. I remember you Ernie👍. Thank you❤

Holy cow this is amazing, I pity myself 20 minutes ago when I didn’t know this existed

[@chrishuber8374]

Really! Like, "Where have you been all my life!?"

[@ciaranocraobhach]

Jimmy James is my all-time favorite guitarist. His feel is just amazing - those bends, the vibrato…the soul he puts into his playing it's just next level. I wish I could play like him. If he was alive in the 60's he would be a household name. DLOT, you guys are so tight! Those grooves, the swing...it's just awesome.

[@dwightschrute6333]

I'm a rock guy but I would put J-James in my top 10.

[@Partyman897]

I just found out about these guys this week, but Jimmy James is easily becoming one of my faves. I've been burning through The True Loves and Organ trio albums like no ones business

I was like, "Where's the bass player? Oh, it's his left hand."

[@MrWhitmire]

Left foot.

[@ritamarks3935]

Ray Manzarek style... (the doors) 🙌🏼

[@organfreak]

@@MrWhitmire it's BOTH. It won't sound like that without both!

[@leemsky]

i have too few braincell to replicate what he's doing

[@organfreak]

@@leemsky Most people do. The synapses are built by mucho practice! Having said that, he and the other organ masters have, I think, a neurological advantage. Plus, remember, Delvon was a drummer before this.

[@boogieoogie785]

Why did Careless Whisper make me smile? Hell yeah because it's laid back and funky..........

[@ΗλίαςΚωνσταντινίδης-ι6ψ]

When the careless wishper melody kicked in I burst out laughing. PERFECT

me too, generally I don't like the song, but I need to re-evaluate that now.

[@bobryan9876]

Thanks youtube algorithm for making me aware of these guys. So fucking tight.

[@cyyytr0n]

That first guitar solo was pure funk insanity

[@ibalrog]

This is ridiculously good. One take? Untreated front room of a house, in the middle of the day? Instruments AND spoken voice are crystal clear? It just seems unfair.

[@jhersonlopez8087]

like how?? so unfair hahah

[@organfreak]

Inna basement.

[@fatehopkins]

D is ridiculous. I can’t even fart and sneeze at the same time without serious problems. This dude is doing two people’s extremely difficult and extremely different tasks simultaneously at an extremely high level.

[@iouel]

Jimmy James is a genius, I have to see Jordan Peele do an impression; surprising everyone how his solo keeps getting better and better as the song goes on....

[@ckdamoneking9622]

Crazy how Delvon holds down that B chord while playing rhythm with the other 4 fingers! These Dudes are just on anotha level Maign!

[@manassesbatista6057]

jimmy james i love you man❤

[@timchildress2048]

Can't believe he held that high note with his pinky for so long!

[@benjaminhogan1112]

That snare sounds delightful.

[@stevenieves3728]

That’s the coolest group in the known universe.

[@rossanozanga9581]

L'Hammond è uno strumento geniale, e che groove raga.

[@kevgamble]

Marvelous. As a bass player, I wish I could tell you that you need a bass player, but you already have a fantastic one! What a great sound all around.

[@organfreak]

When Jimmy Smith first came up with that kind of bass technique, back in 1955, it changed everything. There have been some brilliant organ bass players since then, and Delvon is one of them!

[@PoetFisherman]

Damn straight! Can't wait to see these cats in Omaha, Jan 13th 2023 :)

[@gerritboender6579]

"Commandant Cousteau" on the drums Sounds sooooo good !!

[@paulconnelly523]

I just fucking love these guys, so kool so original so musical. No one is close to them. Love Alabama shakes and there probably the closest thing. Just getting there funk on totally pure musicians and fucking love it.

[@thomasbrown7328]

2:32! He proceeds to hold down that high key with his pinky for his four finger solo for nearly a full minute... mind altering and no substances required (-:-)

[@ArjunaJoshua1]

No substances required, but they sure do help though!

[@md1xlm]

LOL. Once again my mind is blown! I love that you counted the duration too. And then that I had to also count it. Plus, that's not altogether a bad guitar solo that follows immediately afterwards!

[@nogenrejustart7255]

Im so glad I am not the only nerd here hahahha

[@Warrigt]

suggestion: If this is your 20th time listening/watching this, try cranking the playback speed to 1.25 or even 1.5 for a nice kick in the pants. @19:13 at 1.5 speed is truly blessed.

[@anthonybolanos6223]

Love that flat palm hits on the organ about 20:45 minute into the video that sounded like a menacing evil laugh. So good. Great set guys!
