Recently I got to jam with some of my favorite musicians. The guitarist was the first person I ever jammed with about 30 years ago. This was quite the reunion. I started out playing music in a garage, mostly instrumental back then because no one wanted to sing...or could for that matter.
I've had this lineup in mind for a while now and finally made it happen. Jazz, Funk, R&B and Blues is what I was longing for. We captured about 8 tunes in our first session. Here were 2 takes on some classics. Hammond, E Bass, Drums, Sax and Guitar

Wow, this must have been a heavenly jam with your “dream team” :-)
Cool to reunite with your first jamming buddy!
Thanks for taking a gander! Blues at night, back to Midnight on The Water this morning in DDAD tuning.
Just something about the sound of B3 Hammond organ wailin' away!

Agree!!
What's your guitar gear?
If i had the space, I'd have a B or C3. I used to have an M100 that a friend has now, it ticked most of the sexy Hammond boxes when paired with a Lesley speaker (a buddy of mine had a collection of them, sold one to the beastie boys when they were playing in Minneapolis decades ago).
The Guitar guy was playing either a Les Paul Custom or a USA Strat with Lace Sensor Pickups. He was def playing a sweet Fender Tube Amp. Not sure of the model. And then he has all the pedals too.
What are you doing in there drums? bass? You laid down some funky drums in another post

I was on drums.
Brent Burgee on Hammond
Bill Sinclair on Sax
John Lanehart Bass
Jeremy West on Guitar.
We captured 8 total songs. 3 videos but I was not happy with the video. The other tunes had some flubs I'm sure they didn't want people hearing...lol.
All instrumnetal. We did Tax Man, Sissy Strut, Ain't She Lovley, Root Down and they Love Each Other. More to come!
Drums are an acoustic instrument!

I know you're all dying for some more of this band...LOL!!! Here are two more cuts.
Now that I know you are on drums, I'm admiring your multi-talents!
You guys are all so good.
My husband is really into this kind of music, and I used to go to jazz/blues bars in DC with him in our "spring chicken" days. :-) Good times!
NC, thanks for taking time to check it out.
A real treat.
There was a time when this was the music I played (guitar) and listened to, pretty much exclusively. Not so much these days but the honky tonk band I'm playing in does a bunch of Garcia songs so I've been listening to my Dead collection again. Steel player, a country boy raised on bluegrass, loves the unpredictability of Jerry's compositions.

You the man, Billy!
I'm just making my rounds back to my roots. Maybe this time around I'll learn some more banjo! lol
