Absolutely great music! A little "Rick van der Linden" or "Keith Emerson" or "John Lord"!!!! Ekseption is my lifetime-music! I know Rick van der Linden very personally and I met him several times in Germany and the Netherland. Thomas, you are a great keyboarder! Thank you so much for your excellent and exceptional music!
Dude you rock. I've watched this clip like 20 times during the last 5 years. I'm a full time musician, i know little about the hammond, I know some of the prog rock tunes you play, but i like them all. This is the kind of video that keeps me inspired all the way. Love it
Absolutely Amazingly Awesome. I have a C-3 and a 122 and a 122RV stacked in my living room here in Pittsburgh. I spent 4 years searching this country until I found the RV in Iowa in a church that had closed and it probably hadn't been played but a few times.
Excellent playing. I've been lucky enough to meet Keith Emerson, Steve Walsh and have dinner twice with Yes; when all band members were there. THANK YOU for keeping all this amazing music alive. I'd love to hopefully hear a CD from You and Rick WAKEMAN. Your amazing!
Brilliant use of your C3 and 145 period and the mini Moog was a nice touch. Never get tired of the sound of either instrument, and you showcase them both very well.
Just came across this on the day that we got the sad news that Keith Emerson was dead. This reminded me of him, especially the 'foot' assistance, and the Hammond/Moog combination (although I never saw him use his nose!) A fine performance which brought a smile to my face. Thank you Mr B.
OMG , I think I just experienced my very first ever .. "Eargasm" .. Excellent performance and honor paid to one of the finest musical instruments ever made ..
I think I watched this around when it came out and didn't know 70% of the songs, but since 2016 or so I've owned the albums that most of them are on after rediscovering them through Pandora
I have probably watched/listened to this video a few dozen times. It always brings tears to my eyes. There is nothing like the sound of a Leslie rotating speaker driven hard. Perfect Strangers! O M G! Such emotion! Great work, Thomas. Thanks for sharing this.
I'm a guitarist, but whenever I see a band with an organist my eyes are looking out for when the foot hits the Leslie pedal to send it spinning fast - it's a truly expressive sound, and I'm fascinated to see it being brought in and out of play!
Exactly. When I was very small and even not aware of what Hammond is, I was fascinated by that "screaming" instrument familiar from classic rock recordings, such as Deep Purple , Uriah Heep and Pink Floyd. That rocking sound became my obsession and I sought after it in many recordings. I only found truth about Hammond organs with availability of the Internet
Great video, I had a very good time watching. You really had me smiling when you went from Child in Time back to Thick as a Brick! Also since Deep Purple and Jethro Tull are my 2 favorite bands! Keep on playing! \m/
Outstanding Solo Performance! Please keep up the great work! I’m a huge Kansas fan! Saw them live with entire original crew in 79-80. #Kansas #JesusisLord
After a long, almost myopic obsession with the blues, I'm feeling a renewed hunger for prog. This vid only fanned the flames. Magnificent performance, sir. A nice reminder that the first heavy metal was called baroque.
I just came back from a jazz festival in the states. come visit us sometimes. We need you. Nothing sounds like a Hammond. Even on youtube it is so crisp...
I can't get enough of the Hammond organ! Long live Jon Lord!
He was a stellar musician.
So good! When that organ goes overdrive the world just becomes a better place.
Hammond and Leslie are the only electric couple who never got divorced, they are literally the perfect match.
life mates for life and they are immortal so YAY US!!
I know, no Hollywood drama here, no sir. They live happily ever after...
The Hammond with Leslie is unreal.. WOW! Excellent playing...
SO AMAZINGLY AWESOME KEYBOARDIST BEAUTIFUL MUSIC.
Amazing!!! I love old school rock organ!! You are truly great!
Awesome medley !! I love the sound of a Hammond organ. Awesome job !! Hope to hear more from you !! 🎶🎶🎵🎶

Absolutely great music! A little "Rick van der Linden" or "Keith Emerson" or "John Lord"!!!! Ekseption is my lifetime-music!

@@jakelecroy5553 Thank you very much 😀🎹!
Me too! It just came up in my recommended today and I was like "oh I remember this guy, he rocks!"
Dude you rock. I've watched this clip like 20 times during the last 5 years. I'm a full time musician, i know little about the hammond, I know some of the prog rock tunes you play, but i like them all. This is the kind of video that keeps me inspired all the way. Love it
Thanx for your very kind words! :-)
Well done. The Moog reminded me of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Thanks for sharing.
A very well deserved like from me, i don't hand them out lightlly so take that as a massive compliment, bravo sir, bravo :)
Man dude, that was so intense. Lit one of my favorite keyboard videos of all time now. Amazing
Wow! Thomas, that was great! I heard ya all way down here in New Orleans.
Absolutely Amazingly Awesome. I have a C-3 and a 122 and a 122RV stacked in my living room here in Pittsburgh. I spent 4 years searching this country until I found the RV in Iowa in a church that had closed and it probably hadn't been played but a few times.
Lucky you !! 🙂
nice job the Hammond organ has been one favorite organs of all time
Nothing like an organ, especially a Hammond & Moog set up!
This guy knows his stuff! Awesome!
Great performance, super cool rig, people are rockin' around the world, I love it!
Excellent playing. I've been lucky enough to meet Keith Emerson, Steve Walsh and have dinner twice with Yes; when all band members were there. THANK YOU for keeping all this amazing music alive. I'd love to hopefully hear a CD from You and Rick WAKEMAN. Your amazing!
You are a lucky guy to have this beautiful instrument and really know how to play it!
Awesome sound and playing as well!
this is a sort of drug!
I HAVE to come back here from time to time and listen and listen.... and again and again....
Excellent !!!! Love it ALL of it !! Rock ON ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Brilliant. First time I heard this amazing sound was from the acclaimed world in action theme.
Fantastic! Love it!!!
Beautifully done. A complete privilege to listen to this. That Hammond is fantastic, too... nothing sounds like it. Wonderful instrument.
Brilliant use of your C3 and 145 period and the mini Moog was a nice touch. Never get tired of the sound of either instrument, and you showcase them both very well.
I love Hammond and Leslie and Bach and Tarkus and Deep Purple. Well done!!
Great medley! Hammond rocks!
You are truly a Hammond player. Very special breed
Here we see how passion for music look and sound like! Bravo, Thomas!
Just came across this on the day that we got the sad news that Keith Emerson was dead. This reminded me of him, especially the 'foot' assistance, and the Hammond/Moog combination (although I never saw him use his nose!) A fine performance which brought a smile to my face. Thank you Mr B.
Yeah. I would pay money to witness that live with a band. That was awesome!
OMG , I think I just experienced my very first ever .. "Eargasm" ..
Excellent performance and honor paid to one of the finest musical instruments ever made ..
Couldn't have picked a better band to pay a tribute to.. great job
Amazing sound.
I think I watched this around when it came out and didn't know 70% of the songs, but since 2016 or so I've owned the albums that most of them are on after rediscovering them through Pandora
I remember when I stumbled onto this video almost 10 years ago and was blown away with your great playing! It still sounds just a terrific today!
Still listening in 2023.
This is incredible, love the growl of the Leslie speaker and the classic Hammond sound that us prog rock fans love, great video!!
Thank you my good man!! My life just got a whole lot better!!
This T. Burlefingeer transition ! Awesome ! An Eargasm !
prachtig om te horen wat een Hammond presteert als hij op de juiste manier word bespeeld,perfect!
Excellent performance and majestic tone.Thank you for sharing.
Great job! Named them as I listened, then realized you put the titles in.
Holy crap balls that was great...shades of Keith Emerson!!
thank you for that! it is very inspiring to see someone so dedicated to their craft and enjoy what they do! amazing sounds!
I don't know if there has ever been a more perfect pairing of keyed instruments than the C3 + Moog.
Excellent video. I thoroughly enjoyed it! :-)
Fan for live. Thanks for this amazing sounds.
Rock-n-Roll, great set young man.
Fantastic!! Awesome to watch a true master of the Hammond!! Thankyou!

Thank you very much :)
Kansas .. Carry On Wayward Son .. hey hey hey
flykeys. A Whiter Shade of Pale is also Bach!
@@bertvdlast Inspired by Bachs "Air".
You can line all of the Yamaha Motifs,Korg's and even Nord's and you just can't beat a real Hammond and a Leslie. Great Job!
That was the best thing I've heard in a very long time. Thanks for making me smile! 👍🏼
Great job, I really enjoyed the music and the hair toss was spectacular !
I know the beginning is a song by focus or a song focus covered... Love it you are awesome Thomas live on and live strong you wizard of the keys.
Awesome video, great playing and nice group of songs keep it up. i enjoyed watching this video
Awesome sounding rig, fine playing, and pretty funny too.
3:05 you know you have to stand when it's Emerson, Lake and Palmer
and use knife to hold keys :-0
EXCELLENT!!! What great sound you have, and talent!
Fantastic , Sitting Mesmerised . Loved ELP Tarkus - Memories
Congratulations. Thanks for sharing and for keep the good old rock music alive.
I have probably watched/listened to this video a few dozen times. It always brings tears to my eyes. There is nothing like the sound of a Leslie rotating speaker driven hard. Perfect Strangers! O M G! Such emotion! Great work, Thomas. Thanks for sharing this.
+London Pinball You're so nice :-) ! Thanx a lot for listening and watching so often :-) ! Cheers, Thomas

YES! When I die I want to time travel & come back as a Hammond B3 organ, Leslie included, being played by Steve Winwood's lovely fingers.
Loved the transition from Tarkus to the Spider, very well thought.
Hey Eduardo! Thanx for your detailed reception! ;-)
ONCE I ROSE ABOVE THE NOISE AND CONFUSION JUST TO GET A GLIMPSE BEYOND DISILLUSION! I WAS SOARING EVER HIGHER!
Just come across this - absolutely awesome! Thomas you're a genius!
Great video, I had a very good time watching. You really had me smiling when you went from Child in Time back to Thick as a Brick!
Also since Deep Purple and Jethro Tull are my 2 favorite bands!
Keep on playing! \m/
Great pieces selection!
Great sound Thomas - "cut " C3 playing at it's very best with some nice Moog work. All the best Keith.
Outstanding Solo Performance!
Please keep up the great work!
I’m a huge Kansas fan!
Saw them live with entire original crew in 79-80.

Oh my goodness! Absolutely incredible!!!
Wow so much of that stuff brings back such memories. What a lot of fun you're having there.
And the more you get into it, the better it sounds.
Wow!!! That was absolutely amazing, unbelievably awesome.
I luv the growl of the Hammond and Leslie .I feel as if I owe you something for that .You are very talented .
Thanks for the Leslie 145 internal side view in action.
Now that made me smile!!!
Great job Thomas! Great song selection, really like the Thick as a Brick!
Jon Lord sitting on a cloud with a big smile

Wow....all my Fav stuff bundled into one!!....One you missed was "Lone Star Bell`s of Berlin"
Absolutely Marvelous TY !😎
First Song: Well played, fantastic sound! You`re a pro. Thanks!
After a long, almost myopic obsession with the blues, I'm feeling a renewed hunger for prog. This vid only fanned the flames. Magnificent performance, sir. A nice reminder that the first heavy metal was called baroque.
The Hammond organ with Leslie speaker is a magnificent marriage. Such a great presentation in this video
We definitely grew up in the same era! Awesome playing, Great tracks. Thanks for sharing.
Well done! Two Beautiful classic instruments together.
Awesome C3 I want to hire you!!! NOW!!! Never mind I can't afford you :) The Kansas is BADASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just Love The Sounds Spot On Son
this is exactly how in my mind a hammond and a minimoog should sound together
Thomas, that was one magnificent piece of work! Pure art of sound! Thank you for sharing!
Great passion, great hair flicks, great mix and combo. Kudos.
The Kansas stuff.... My God Walsh was a beast!
Very nice! Awesome sound too of that Hammond
Fantastic work !
I just came back from a jazz festival in the states. come visit us sometimes. We need you. Nothing sounds like a Hammond. Even on youtube it is so crisp...
