Summary: #WATCHMOVIE HERE: For My Friends In The Nakamichi Audiophile Group Jon's archive https://archive.org/details/ForMyFriendsInTheNakamichiAudiophileGroup by Jon Hammond For my friends in the Nakamichi Audiophile Group: I used good old Maxell Type II cassette tapes for this live recording date I personally recorded on my Nakamichi 550, which I am the original owner purchaser of - I plunked down $550 cash for my Nak at Harvey Electronics on W. 45th Street NYC in 1976 - I made this recording with 3 Sennheiser microphones placed around the bandstand in the Ellington Room - the tune "No X-Cess Baggage Blues" I wrote for my friends at PIA Pakistan International Airlines - they very kindly let me take excess baggage on numerous flights I made with them out of John F. Kennedy International Airport - when you play Hammond Organ, it's impossible to travel light. I go way back with all of these fine musicians - that's Chuggy Carter on the percussion - Ray Grapponedrums - Joe Berger aka Joe Berger2 in the string section on his custom built JJ Guitars - tenor saxophonist Todd Anderson, Todd was my teacher for arranging and composition back in 1973 at the Berklee College of Musicin Beantown MA - Todd is also on my very first album 'Late Rent' one ofNew York's finest - all these cats are veteran players and studio musicians, and I have been around the block a few times myself - yours' truly Jon Hammond at my 1959 Hammond B3 organ and covering the bass as well - through my custom built Bill Beer super high-power Leslie speaker with all JBLspeaker and horn components - enjoy! *Note: When I'm talking, the audiois back to the vid tape - I just plugged an SM-58 in to a little Fender Amp Can battery powered amp - back to basics and analog, big thanks to Willy Hermann Services William Hermann Jr. got my intermittent left channel working! - Jon Hammond Band- the "Blend Mic" '3rd channel' Nakamichi system gives a unique 3 dimensional sound to live audio recordings - that's why even today the old Grateful Dead heads crave these machines - can't beat it - and you get real good at flipping cassettes! - JH Times Square, New York City. Here I am with one of my all-time heroes, the honorable Terence Hallinan- when I played Terence's birthday party a few years back in San Francisco CA at Rasselas Jazz Club & Restaurant on Fillmore Street when Terence was running for re-election as District Attorney of San Francisco, and he was a great DA! The who's who of San Francisco were there in his honor, including former SF Mayor Willie Brown, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi,Lisa Hallinan and all the Hallinan's, Mayor of New York David N. Dinkins, club owner Agonafer Shiferaw - and many more, it was a grand party...big honor to play for Terence and everybody there! - Jon Hammond — with Terence Hallinan Jon Hammond Funk Unithttps://www.namm.org/thenammshow/2018/events/jon-hammond-funk-unit Performance Info Friday, January 26, 2018 - 2:00pm to 2:40pm NAMM Show Pioneer DJ Arena Plaza Stage - Jon Hammondbelieve in music award winner - all star band, 40 minute outdoor concert - Anaheim Convention Center #NammShow Color colorIdentifier ForMyFriendsInTheNakamichiAudiophileGroupScanner Internet Archive HTML5 Uploader 1.6.3Sound soundYear 2017 Publication date 2017-11-13Usage Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0Topics Nakamichi, Grateful Dead Heads, Tapers, Jon Hammond Band, NAMM Show, Nakamichi Audiophile, Cassettes, Type II, Funky Jazz, Blues, Hammond organ, B3, Leslie Speaker, JBL SpeakersLanguage English Nakamichi, Grateful Dead Heads, Tapers, Jon Hammond Band, NAMM S
