It making the M1 sound for the song She's homeless by Gypsy Woman !! Amazing Doctor mix !!

[@gonzalosurvideos]

Please I need the Jimmy Smith - Root Down setings because I try without success. Thnks

[@user-ql1pc7pi9x]

Green Onions and A Whiter Shade Of Pale are just timeless classics that I'll never get bored of hearing 👌

[@scottbroady3159]

I don’t know what I enjoy more: the music and background content, or your enthusiasm. Clearly, you love what you do, and it’s infectious-I smash the like button every time. Looking forward to the NEEXXXXT video

[@hammondvoodoo9555]

I keep going over and over that Green Onions portion because, believe it or not, you are one of the very few people who actually play it correctly and get it to sound very close to the original recording. I've seen and heard countless musicians play that riff wrong - professionals included.

[@jocosaway3676]

I get that there's a difference between "doing your own thing" and just simply playing something wrong but what a boring world we would live in if everybody played it like the recoed

[@hammondvoodoo9555]

@@jocosaway3676In some rare cases, a simple-sounding musical idea has a brilliance that is neither immediate nor obvious to everyone. "Interpreting" this idea differently has nothing to do with creativity, but with a lack of understanding and ability. Oftentimes, it's not even the notes but the way they're played like with the Smoke on the Water riff. Simplicity also leaves little room for alternatives to a particular style of playing, which means that only one way can be considered by far the best. This is exactly the case when Booker plays his Green Onions riff and only then does it sounds really outstanding. A lot of people don't think too much of Booker because he isn't a virtuoso player. However, if they took a closer look at what he does they will change their mind. The way he plays and arranges his organ parts is masterful and not at all obvious at first.

[@RolandTumble23]

@@jocosaway3676With such an iconic piece, I feel it's best to play the main riff "right", then add interpretation in the solo(s). YMMV.

[@berywgt7094]

Came here for Green Onions. Wasn't disappointed!

[@greigclement9081]

I love the dirty beat-up organ tone of "Gimme some Lovin'"

[@lundsweden]

CollaB3 is great, been using it for a couple of years

[@another3997]

Green Onions is just such an iconic track. Terse, tight sounds... leaving lots of 'space' that many would have filled with more sound, but they were masters of "less was more". Nothing hogs the limelight, every instrument is equal and nothing is extraneous or swamped. Definitely deserving of it's no. spot.

[@tuanbe]

Everybody is waiting for the 2022 Christmas special compilation with all the 'neeext' and 'sintah-sizers' in one video. Pending the Doctor's prescription of course. Thanks for another great year of enthusiasm, positive vibes and awesome fingerplay!

[@budgetguitarist]

I had the good fortune of seeing Jimmy Smith live, year ago, and he was amazing. Good sounding organ - and for free, it's great!

[@lundsweden]

Umm, are you on the other side?!

[@budgetguitarist]

@@lundsweden Typo - meant "years" ago.

[@zsleepwalker]

Yes! Number one is Green onions. That's what came into my mind when I saw your title.

[@chrisc9406]

Was counting on Green Onions as the ultimate organ riff. Booker T Jones deserves no.1 position. Great selection and in the correct order.

[@kleetus92]

Green Onions I was not expecting, but was thrilled to hear!

[@richardmccallen625]

Acoustic Samples B5 V3 is a great sounding VST.

[@xxxxneoxxxx]

This was one of my first vsts and my first organ vst. I started using it when we were locked down a couple of years ago and I got into recording. I love it!

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Awesome, DM. Going to recommend that if ever you feel like triggering the software organ from the MIDI controller isn’t filling in for you, you should lay hands on an instrument from the Roland V-Combo line. Aside from being a convincing clone wheel organ with highly believable rotary simulator, it also includes a transistor organ section. What’s more, there are options for the 61-note range associated with the Hammond organ and the 73-note range associated with the Rhodes piano. One thing I miss about the latter is that it uses real waterfall keys.

[@alexanderrjakhov6301]

Thank You 0:01 very much!! For amazing memories!!! Perfect riffs after myself mix evening cocktails with Doctor Mix Chanel!!! Good luck!!!

[@spacecowboy2483]

Man that opening... eargasm! Gypsy Woman's riff is heavenly. It has the property that it suits whatever mood you are in. My choice if I had to land in a deserted island with only one track.

[@conrad4667]

I was hoping that Booker T. & The M.G.’s would top out the list. 👍

[@CharlestonMolina]

I almost stopped on the Procol Harum.... it's a unbelievable song

[@nakiradams]

My friend, the happiness you radiate when you are playing. you are in your sauce

[@mudi2000a]

Expected Green Onions and was not disappointed ❤❤ Well done!!

[@swinde]

I kinda missed the guitar twang that comes in in the latter part of this piece,

[@theopdiamond8349]

imho there cannot be a top 5, hell even a top 3 iconic organ riffs without Light My Fire (Doors) or House of the Rising Sun (Animals)'s iconic solo. Great list though, and great playing too. Keep it up!

[@Andronicus2007]

Yeah, but those songs were done on the Vox, whichs sounds waaay different!

[@movilandia]

Hello, i play 2 Years with Collab3 from Sampleson and i very happy!!! I have about 400 clips in my channel and this Hammond B3 Sound its fantastic!!!! Best Regards,José Movilandia!!!!!😎💥👍👍👍

[@gonzalosurvideos]

Great sound and playing! Thanks!

[@enochroot9438]

which was everyone's favourite? All played superbly by the good Doctor but for me Whiter Shade of Pale just edged out Green onions

[@wolfgangwiesinger9502]

Imo it's betta to split the keyboard for this song

[@fernandotuna1]

This intro always give me chills. Superb!

[@magicmulder]

Gimme Some Lovin will always be my favorite.

adoro gipsy woman di Cristal Waters, ho il vinile mix originale, e ne sono contento. Grazie Claudio.

I literally was looking at a Gypsy Woman tutorial and through sheer luck, stumbled upon this video. You have the perfect organ; it's like it was fate!

[@ryananthony4840]

Awwww YEAH...... Green Onions!!! Gotta go listen to it now!

[@MrKersey]

VB3-II by GSi is probably one of the best VSTs plugins for Hammond organ.

[@truefilm6991]

Yes. The old VB-3 was already great. I had it. I think IK Media Hammond B3-X is killer.

[@anttikaartinen5896]

@@truefilm6991 I agree.

[@LogicalNiko]

Its a damn good VST but not same without the Leslie speaker variable vibrato and the slight squeakiness that the Hammond’s tend to have when you hit the keys just the right way.

[@profpep]

Nice - and you had my all time favourite as #1, too - and nailed it!

[@smooch2955]

96 Tears...? and the Mysterians Best organ riff ever 🎉 Gotta love it

[@dariodzimbeg]

No The Doors "Light my Fire"???! OMG!

[@jeremiahlyleseditor437]

"The Doors: Light My Fire" is another good one.

[@geoffk777]

But that's not a Hammond. For a Vox/Farfisa riff, it's probably #1, though.

[@soliv27]

03:43 your playing of this setting with that echo or reverb reminds me Terry Riley in 'Poppy Nogood and the phantom band' or 'Rainbow in a curved air'.

[@rleriche5044]

I know I shouldnt ever... but I do forget how epic organs are.

[@ojnunezm]

Thank you so much Dr Claudio, now I know the name of various songs I didnt know it but always like when listed to them, and I can practice other songs with my keyboard ;)

[@cfov]

Wish you had added "Lazy" from Deep Purple. Perhaps another video? Some of the most iconic organ riffs

[@pabloretamal101]

Or maybe ‘Child in Time’

[@galberts]

Yes and what about Perfect Strangers

[@mmichel2436]

I agree. Or the intro of Child in Time !

[@MrCrrispy]

Aside from being the best country in the world and having the best food and drink, the Italians are unsung heroes in electronic music. If it wasn’t for Italy we wouldn’t have had electronic music like we had in the 80’s and 90’s

[@jmsdeco]

Boston's "Foreplay" should've been number 1 on the list.

[@peacefulruler1]

It’s just a clone of older Uriah Heep

[@jeffspadaro5773]

This was awesome! Curious if you have any insights to a VST for an ARP ProSoloist. I’ve recently built a midi rig and to learn old Genesis songs and Tony Banks used an ARP ProSoloist… can’t find a VST for this anywhere. HELP please. Thank you! 😊

[@ericolson326]

Not really a riff, but what comes to mind first when I think "organ" is Stephen Stills' "Love the One You're With" and the glissando into the solo. That moment stops me in my tracks everytime.

[@donparsons6523]

Oh, man, I was waiting for you to kick the half-moon switch to Fast.

[@trainliker100]

I think the opening to "Light My Fire" (The Doors) would be in my top 5. I'd probably switch it for your number 3.

[@geoffk777]

Yeah, except he was playing Hammond Riffs. "Light My Fire" is a Vox/Farfisa sound, like "House of the Rising Sun" or "inna Gadda Da Vida." It's probably #1 in this category, though.

[@trainliker100]

@@geoffk777 I didn't see anything in the description or in the video restricting it to Hammond. So, I figure anything is fair game. Light my fire was done on a VOX Continental, so are correct on the sound.

[@geoffk777]

@@trainliker100 There's nothing in the title restricting it to Hammond, BUT he's doing all of the demos on a Hammond VST plugin. So yeah, I think that he probably will be looking at Hammond riffs and not anything else.

[@pawelpap9]

I wonder whether rings on fingers help the performance. Maybe they make fingers heavier and thus attack is more aggressive?

[@Cuteslap2]

Thanks, another great video! Back in the 90's Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman, Bellini - Carnaval and Black Legend - You See The Trouble With Me definetely sounded like Korg M1 or Korg O1 PercOrgan2 tone to me. All the best 🤗

Great sounding plug-in Dr Mix. Whilst not a riff, I would've liked to have heard Alan Price's organ solo from The Animals' "House of the Rising Sun" played on this VST. Keep up the fantastic content!

[@KevTJones]

Such a great talent.

[@geoffk777]

Your version of Green Onions sounded great, but the Legs and Co. version was more fun to watch.

[@zyxyuv1650]

I'm so happy to see more good instruments with higher technology than just using samples. When I was a kid I used to imagine a futuristic world where we'd have amazing physically modeled instruments that you could morph together in a couple years... AND IT NEVER HAPPENED! Instead the developers only created a bunch of crappy sample instruments and called it Komplete.

[@yvescolin6169]

Maybe it's not only because the developpers are "lazy" but also because it's very difficult to have a good sounding modeled instrument? And the b3 is one of the easiest one to model (see the hoax3 board), accoustic instruments like the piano are much more complex

[@unclemick-synths]

@@yvescolin6169 exactly - especially as the model has to create the sound we _expect_ to hear rather than a merely accurate emulation. It's like a movie fight scene - if they used accurate foley the punters would be complaining how lame the sound was - but there would be a lot less waste of watermelon! 🍉😀

[@HammondDirk]

@@yvescolin6169 Well, I don't agree with your idea that a B-3 is one of the easiest instruments to model... There is a lot of electromagnetic interference going on in those huge bundles of cables, let alone the way the 9 switches underneath each key make contact one after another. It's like the sympathic resonance of a piano's strings different on each key combination you have. I've never heard any clone wheel organ that completely convincingly sounds like the real thing (where by the way you can identify from the sound in which factory they were made)

[@Davo-007]

Some great Organ riffs there although it was crying out for some Ray Manzarek

[@andrewblackard3369]

I *almost* love this VST. When it works right it sounds fantastic. But too often it generates clicking sounds in Cubase and it is the only VST that does this when I try other VSTs on the same imported MIDI file or MIDI keyboard input. Wish I could fix the problem. But strangely it doesn't happen on a few Cubase projects whereas it always happens on others. Any ideas?
