“A lot of musicians get into music because they want to be rich, famous or all of the above. You are already rich once you sit down and learn to play. That’s richness in itself.” RIP Dr. Lonnie Smith

This is what musicians refer to as 'unconscious'. He's not thinking. He's just flowing. Very, very few musicians ever come close. Totally sick. He's the bomb.
@@mdccloud i think what he is saying, is what is clearly high skill, is being portrayed in a seemingly casual manner. Not that the skill itself is casual by nature.
@@primetimebazooka8020Goofy as it may sound, it's still a timeless instrument. Many JRock concerts with keyboardists often have the Hammond Organ as part of their arsenal because of the iconic sound it makes and how well it enhances songs.
@@juxtaposedlime2734Been in love with the Hammond sound since the days of Jerry Allen and Cherry Wainer, yes, it is a unique and timeless instrument, i hope they can be kept going into the future with the scarcity of vacuum tubes, and very nice to see a talented young musician at work here.
@@lewisconroy3268 as a organist i can safely say. Pedals on this thing (because im guessing it has 1 octave pedalboard) is nothing compared to the big pedalboards on church organs lol
I am a classical pianist and organist (not a a very good though ;) and it always amazes me how people are able to get such a cool sound out of a hammond organ. It is a completely different playstyle and I admire those who can play it like this guy! Awesome
He's wise to have a specially constructed safe storage unit. Attempting to directly transfer that much soul into himself would have likely ended in visiting a higher power instead of reaching a higher ground
I've been watching this video for 5 years now, inspired me a lot and will never get bored. Thanks Cory for the wonderful, groovy and soulful playing 👍👍👍👏👏👏
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE only way to Heaven and He loves you? Through Him, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Biblical explanation of the Gospel: God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. (Matthew 12:30) ''Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.'' He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23) The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life and resurrected. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it, but we don't want to be damned. Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life, Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) We aren’t saved based on our good deeds/works, but only by the grace of God through faith. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven if we repent and trust in Him. ''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15) ''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19) Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6) If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually. (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) You are born again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) ''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7) If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes - to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God. You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son. ''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17) ''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10) You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ. As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so. In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.'' ''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19) ''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41) ''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body, but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21) ''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4) ''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12) Please get right with God and start your relationship with Jesus Christ today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left! "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you! Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
He is NOT one of us!!!! I had no idea - This introductory clip popped up on my feed cuz I've saved clips of Joey D-RIP, Jimmy, Billy et.al. When I saw Dr.Lonnie Smith in the background I figured "Now THIS must be SPECIAL" and BAAAM!!! For the past 48+ hours, I've been mesmerized by Cory's virtuosity, artistry & energy!!!
why would anyone dislike this??? the man is a genius! An inspiration not just to key players but all improvising musicians. I definitely get a lot of licks from this guy and use them for my guitar solos and themes.
This....is how you play the organ, kids...I love the Hammond too...Cory is just having a blast here...I get it, bro. Music just has to be fun or we'll just do something else in life. Playing with the joy many of us who woodshed love to do and yeah, sometimes the fingers just fly literally. I can tell both church and classical combine in this awesome young brother. Get it, Cory...I watch this video a lot, and seem to enjoy his joy watching...now, back to my practice here...I just love seeing talented musicians let go and flow like him. Billy Preston would love his style and feeling. Some church musicians play open chords never using all of the fingers like Cory does. One can tell he was well taught from childhood. Musicians have to love what they do or they're just playing around. You've got to put in the time practicing and playing every available moment you can. Wake up thinking about playing every day and want to keep growing and experimenting with various keys and combinations and even classical pieces you don't know well and keep at it for a lifetime. Cory, the best is still in you...keep growing and never stop, no matter what. And the humility he has just glows from his personality. Blessings fellow keyboardist...keep grooving and expanding your borders. Jabez...Amen.
@@dinglepringle1380 I didn't know this model didn't come with foot pedals. I stand corrected....Take a deep breath... someone online just admitted they were wrong... 😱 Still impressive 👍
Everytime I watch his joy, I smile broadly. Same here...when we play from the soul...kindred souls loving the thing we do best...no one sees the hours and hours we put in alone just to be able to do what we love doing. Big smile, much love, Corey. Never feels like work...or we'd do something else in life.
As always with those who are amongst the best at something - he makes this look utterly amazingly mindblowing with seemingly no effort whatsoever. Outstanding.
This mad my night! I will go to sleep now smiling. Music!!! So happy to see Dr. Lonnie Smith right beside him just as happy as he could be munching with approval. Love this!
Makes me miss my friend Matt who played Hammond and everything else extremely well. A certain joy hearing someone skillful play a Hammond organ that is especially calming and comforting. I guess that also growing up in church too.
THE ORGAN GOD HIMSELF DR. LONNIE IN THE BACKGROUND. I was thinking about all the great organists who are all gone now, Jimmy Smith, Groove Holmes, Shirley Scott, Charles Earland, Jimmy McGriff, I mean the true LEGENDS. It's so good we still have Dr. Lonnie Smith.
I know this seems insignificant. But I was enjoying the Sikh and the Moorish brotha vibing and showing each other love in the background. Music always seems to bring people together....
I was there right after Corey played. This is amazing. Then Lonnie Smith and Ronnie Foster sat in together and it really got stupid. This is great thanks for sharing!
+James Nesbitt that's odd, because the really awesome musicians think he's really awesome lol. Maybe you haven't heard a lot of his playing, or maybe it's just a matter of taste, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but rest assured Cory is REALLY awesome and continues to get better.
ssyynntax: just a music enthusiast. This is only hot dogging overlapping an already perfect song at a faster tempo. Try clapping to this rendition, you'll notice error. Im not saying this young man can't play, he's a marvelous musician but.. there are some that will make his biggest fans run to another stage. There are katz around Coreys age in little Cartersville, Ga and Rome, Ga. that keep that groove on the low... shhh !!! ya betta ask you somebahdi!!!!!
Today I played some freestyle and felt like I hit another level and then I hear this guy with this skill and he showed me how much FURTHER i need to go.. Talented! And much Respect!.
Cory Henry is from another dimension .He is the modern day Art Tatum . He literally destroys the keyboards that he's playing . He's always a pleasure to watch and also makes you jealous at the same time because we all wish we could play like him. He's a god on the keys.
as a fellow pianist i can hear/feel this man has a blessing from God on his hands. he also plays gospel in church right? i tell you, this is about as good as it gets in heaven xD not many angels play it better than him.
He doesn’t have any blessing, that would actually be an insult. Because he plays on this level as a result of so many hours of effective study. Saying he is blessed is almost like denying the hours of study he has made
@@sijbrandloot2340 yeah right, well even if you practise 1000hours per day (which isnt possible) you would not reach the spirit and energy levels this man is playing with. You need a special anointing for this.
@@Roensmusic how are you to know that? I am a musician myself and such people play like 6 hours a day to maybe 8 hours a day. When I start my bachelor I will do just that. I know that by practicing a few hours every day without missing one, you can become an amazing musician just like him. Wouldn’t that be much more motivation to get to your study? I sure think that is!
Leave it to Cory to draw a crowd by just freestyling and fiddling around. In the meantime Lonnie is making sure the camera sees him. It's always cool to have the Doctor around isn't it?!
Fyodor all jokes are copied at some point right..Ain't no harm in using a joke if it applies? Right? U didn't haft to tell the man he was nothing fam..u can make it right tho.✍🏽
He needed that snack .. you can litterally see the text bubble of his thaughts .. (... damn how did this boy get soo good this fast .. took me 60 years to get that far) :p
Music is directly tied to the soul! This is why those who master an instrument or even the lyrics to any song of any genre become rich $$ people will forever be tied to music through the soul. It is life, as important as the air we breathe and the blood that flows through our veins.
I cannot conceive why.... why anyone would hit the dislike button.... maybe the 'downturners' could explain why..? Actually: don't even bother... it's your loss!! Cory - total respect to you :-)
Joe Smith Even if you run an organ synth through a real Leslie it makes a world of a difference. The way those things modulate the sound around a room is something else
The average person does Not fully appreciate talented organists / pianists. Only those who play musical instruments will understand how much work it takes to become a great musician.
Dyshof TV: Cory for president -- of the · University of California, Berkeley, music division. At least, let see if his music can soothe those savages souls studying: subterfuge, subjugation, and socialism.

Oh he passed? I didn't know
@@RTDavis0503 I did not know either. When? How old? From what did he croak?
Yikes. I didn't know passed. I met him at the San Jose jazz fest 20 years ago
Nowadays the people that get rich from music aren't even real musicians. People that know how to truly make music like Cory often go unnoticed.
0:50
The person who explains to Cory Henry how to use the Reverb effect unit is Daisuke Kawai.
He is best hammond organ player in Japan.
@@quinmn5363 🤣🤣 ffs
Thank you. He looked kinda different from the usual Japanese music company employee!
Mind blowing , including the fact that Dr Lonnie Smith its right on the back
also the licc right there
Damn would've loved to see them play a face off! America ve Japan
This is what musicians refer to as 'unconscious'. He's not thinking. He's just flowing. Very, very few musicians ever come close. Totally sick. He's the bomb.
in pop/rock music, probably few. Corey is a Genius to be sure, but In Jazz, this kind of flow state is a way of life.
Oh yeah
Hell, much of the time he's not even _looking_ . This is what +40h / week practice can get you to if you're already somewhat talented from the start.
I wanna play unconsciously too!
As in "you don't play the music, the music plays you"?
This was nuthin'. When he gets serious, he takes off his backpack.
Nah fr tho the backpack is his rock lee weights
He plays very good.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's where the rocket sauce is...
hahahahaha
This kind of casual skill throw down is so impressive
This is NOT a casual skill. This musican has spent an extensive amount of time to develop his skills.
@@mdccloud i think what he is saying, is what is clearly high skill, is being portrayed in a seemingly casual manner.
Not that the skill itself is casual by nature.
@@mdccloud It's the throw down that's casual, not the skill.
Why is the sound of the Hammond so incredibly timeless? It's as important and as relevant today as it always has been.
Just as the timelessness of relevance being a meme that people fall for
It’s cool but sounds kinda goofy
@@primetimebazooka8020Goofy as it may sound, it's still a timeless instrument.
Many JRock concerts with keyboardists often have the Hammond Organ as part of their arsenal because of the iconic sound it makes and how well it enhances songs.

This man is playing keys that don't even exist..God mode!
He's playing the bassline with his feet! This instrument has pedals which produce the bass notes. It's a real testament to Henry's talent.
@@lewisconroy3268 as a organist i can safely say. Pedals on this thing (because im guessing it has 1 octave pedalboard) is nothing compared to the big pedalboards on church organs lol

"God mode!" hes not hiromi^^
(means: no)
but of course i love it, hes great, pls dont missunderstand ;)
🤣🤣👌
Everything about this performance makes me smile! Pure genius and talent.
I am a classical pianist and organist (not a a very good though ;) and it always amazes me how people are able to get such a cool sound out of a hammond organ. It is a completely different playstyle and I admire those who can play it like this guy! Awesome
Organ is real nice on funk jazz fusion
This man has clearly captured Stevie Wonder’s soul and is keeping it in that backpack.
Elliot Moon LMAO
He's wise to have a specially constructed safe storage unit. Attempting to directly transfer that much soul into himself would have likely ended in visiting a higher power instead of reaching a higher ground
Yeah-nice version
I had the same thought lol. I need that backpack
soo........ Stevie Wonder's soul is some 916 variety mary-juana?
Dr. Lonnie Smith just chillin’ in the background eating some snacks haha.
Yeah - totally spotted that.
Its amazing that people can watch this moment
lol
he seems to be vibing too
Damn you right its really him
2:46 i love how expressive he is. we need more people like him, just truly enjoying themselves
Why do I love the hammond so much? It is the real voice of gospel. So human like.
I've been watching this video for 5 years now, inspired me a lot and will never get bored. Thanks Cory for the wonderful, groovy and soulful playing 👍👍👍👏👏👏
he’s playing Boogie On Reggae Woman by Stevie Wonder
not even close
@@richsackett3423 it is most definitely boogie on reggae woman
I’d like to do it to ya right across the flooooooooor
My favourite Stevie track, and I endorse this performance!
I wish there was a radio station I could turn on every Sunday morning and listen to this..
Onix Junes Just Google "Hammond organ radio" or so. There have to be multiple of them.
Probably is lol
Try radio Swiss jazz ;)
Onix Junes u
That’s why there’s YT
Love how Cory interjects Stevie Wonder and of course Gospel in to his wonderful playing!
Boogie On Reggae Woman - a Stevie Wonder classic, given the Hammond treatment 👍🏽👏🏽
Is it safe to say, that it is a universal fact, when musicians reach a certain level, they somewhat play their instruments with their faces ?
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE only way to Heaven and He loves you?
Through Him, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways,
from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him.
Biblical explanation of the Gospel:
God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why
we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go
there. (Matthew 12:30) ''Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not
gather with me scatters.'' He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but
rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam
sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23)
The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23).
Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell.
For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life and resurrected.
None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all
have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us
are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is
guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit
to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal
hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it, but we don't want to be damned.
Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life, Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16)
We aren’t saved based on our good deeds/works, but only by the grace of God through faith.
''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -
not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins
(past, present, future) to be forgiven if we repent and trust in Him.
''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15)
''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19)
Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8).
Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin.
While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10).
Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.
If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6)
If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually.
(John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."
When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)
You are born again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)
''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7)
If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes -
to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God.
You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace
revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son.
''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17)
''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10)
You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ.
As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so.
In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.''
''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19)
''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41)
''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body,
but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21)
''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4)
''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God,
who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12)
Please get right with God and start your relationship with Jesus Christ today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32)
Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!
Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
omg that is funny. Thats kinda true

Makes me miss my friend Matt who played Hammond and everything else extremely well. A certain joy hearing someone skillful play a Hammond organ that is especially calming and comforting. I guess that also growing up in church too.
Dr. Smith just back there chilling' like... "That's my run lil bro!" :) So Dope!
THE ORGAN GOD HIMSELF DR. LONNIE IN THE BACKGROUND. I was thinking about all the great organists who are all gone now, Jimmy Smith, Groove Holmes, Shirley Scott, Charles Earland, Jimmy McGriff, I mean the true LEGENDS. It's so good we still have Dr. Lonnie Smith.
You forgot Jon Lord
And, Cory Henry
we stil have Joey DeFrancesco, probably the greatest alive too

I know this seems insignificant. But I was enjoying the Sikh and the Moorish brotha vibing and showing each other love in the background. Music always seems to bring people together....
That's Dr. Lonnie Smith, a jazz legend of the B3
I always return to this video, no wonder why this is raw masterpiece
That to me is just one of the sweet sounds on earth, especially in a blues band there’s nothing like a Hammond B3…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I was there right after Corey played. This is amazing. Then Lonnie Smith and Ronnie Foster sat in together and it really got stupid. This is great thanks for sharing!
this guy is nothing but the truth.
Cory Henry is not awesome? Miles Davis would not approve of that comment
+James Nesbitt that's odd, because the really awesome musicians think he's really awesome lol. Maybe you haven't heard a lot of his playing, or maybe it's just a matter of taste, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but rest assured Cory is REALLY awesome and continues to get better.
Ok
+James Nesbitt Who are you exactly?
ssyynntax: just a music enthusiast. This is only hot dogging overlapping an already perfect song at a faster tempo. Try clapping to this rendition, you'll notice error. Im not saying this young man can't play, he's a marvelous musician but.. there are some that will make his biggest fans run to another stage. There are katz around Coreys age in little Cartersville, Ga and Rome, Ga. that keep that groove on the low... shhh !!! ya betta ask you somebahdi!!!!!
My aunty Fritzenella played the Hammond Organ in Texas. She was known as the Hammond Queen of Dallas in 1946.
Better than being known as the Organ Queen.
She was AWESOME
This sounds made up
I can’t stop coming back to this video. Smashing.
If anyone watching this is not sure what ‘natural talent’ is, this is it. Cory Henry is it. Beautiful touch.
3:28 finally got my B license on gran turismo 2
😂😂😂
Hahaha yes dude
Bro 😂😂😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.. SOOOO TRUE
bruuuuuuh
what an awesome player incredibly talented and very dedicated. he can literally connect to anyone's brain inner core.
Dr Lonnie Smith in the back
The first comment I was gonna make
hahahaha
dr lonnie doesn't appear to be paying any attention to CH i'm sure CH would pay attention
to the Dr if only out of respect
He looked to be tapping a bit to what he was playing , he seemed busy with conversation and eating but definitely not totally ignoring him.
they play together in another video, come on Joe
why should he pay attention? this isnt a gig lol. they're just at a conference
Today I played some freestyle and felt like I hit another level and then I hear this guy with this skill and he showed me how much FURTHER i need to go.. Talented! And much Respect!.
for anyone curious, i believe he starts playing boogie on reggae woman flawlessly at 1:40
If I were at a NAMM show and Cory Henry was wandering around the floor checking out instruments, I’d just follow him around and listen.
I never heard of that guy before, but I have all of his albums all the way back to the late 1950s.
I just want this playing in the background of my entire life. Accompanying me and punctuating everything i do.
So glad the UA-cam algorithm recommended this to me! Praise the Lord!
Cory is a modern keyboard genius, one of the best!
Cory Henry is a GOTdamn beast on the keys.
Ever heard of Joey DeFrancesco, listen to him before you annoint Cory Henry the greatest.
Why are Cory Henry and doctor Lonnie Smith both wearing parachutes ? Do they know something we dont. Cant be that dangerous playing the Hammond organ
Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!
Excellent pml
: )))))
The sound of a Hammond takes you very high
I was gonna say something about warning us to do the same cause their playing would blow us away but the comment above was much better
Believe you me, Dr. Smith is eating with his mouth but listening to every note with his ears, heart and soul. Boogie on Reggae Woman, indeed!
Deirdre Phillips and unfortunately that idiot kept hogging up time trying to talk to him.
I was here 2 years ago and am watching it again in sheer awe!!
Man I wonder what it’s like to have that much knowledge about an instrument and music in general. Master class
3:05 dayum, that was crazy slick smooth
theres just so much soul in his performance like damn man
And with the incomparable Dr Lonnie Smith looking on too. Dig!
With the touch of the fingers ~ sounds & songs in the keys of life! Incredible!
He did more with those ten fingers, in those few moments, then the rest of us can hope to achieve in our lifetimes. Really just magic.
Cory Henry is from another dimension .He is the modern day Art Tatum . He literally destroys the keyboards that he's playing . He's always a pleasure to watch and also makes you jealous at the same time because we all wish we could play like him. He's a god on the keys.
Socaman20 - Um... ART TATUM ???
Socaman20 u ù
Yeah, surely you know Art Tatum, right?
He is great but he is no Art Tatum!
He LITERALLY DESTROYS the keyboard? Amazing! Did not know about that
What a genius! The best part is him digging it just as much as I am!
How did you get your account name to be black and white like that?
how is ur name like that
Metalltool your are in to the jam DJBull just chill on
To Derpy: Cut and paste from a canned art web site.
that's a key point...
as a fellow pianist i can hear/feel this man has a blessing from God on his hands. he also plays gospel in church right? i tell you, this is about as good as it gets in heaven xD not many angels play it better than him.
Wanted to say the same :)
We are above every angel
As HE is so are WE
He doesn’t have any blessing, that would actually be an insult. Because he plays on this level as a result of so many hours of effective study. Saying he is blessed is almost like denying the hours of study he has made
@@sijbrandloot2340 yeah right, well even if you practise 1000hours per day (which isnt possible) you would not reach the spirit and energy levels this man is playing with. You need a special anointing for this.
@@Roensmusic how are you to know that? I am a musician myself and such people play like 6 hours a day to maybe 8 hours a day. When I start my bachelor I will do just that. I know that by practicing a few hours every day without missing one, you can become an amazing musician just like him. Wouldn’t that be much more motivation to get to your study? I sure think that is!
I love how Glenn is smiling and admiring Cory’s talent and not hating. Good stuff
Just a "wonderfully gifted young musician. Play on - love listening to your voice too!! truly anointed by God🥰
Leave it to Cory to draw a crowd by just freestyling and fiddling around.
In the meantime Lonnie is making sure the camera sees him.
It's always cool to have the Doctor around isn't it?!
I am a simple man at times. I see Cory Henry, I press like.
OJB 😂😂😂
agreed
I second that!
Fyodor all jokes are copied at some point right..Ain't no harm in using a joke if it applies? Right? U didn't haft to tell the man he was nothing fam..u can make it right tho.✍🏽
Dank Zappa All over a UA-cam comment?? Lol if any of that was true u just declassified yourself.. good luck at being a civilian again.. ha ha
Lonnie casually in the back munching on snacks while Cory is shredding on the organ...
gotta check out the booth with the best snacks
What bothers me is he is unbothered lol
He needed that snack .. you can litterally see the text bubble of his thaughts .. (... damn how did this boy get soo good this fast .. took me 60 years to get that far) :p
That's not him you stupid degenerate
Below Me why so mad😂
One of my favorite players out there these days, so inspiring.
It’s like being a freestyle, Dj, pianist showing layers of emotions
Dude was tickling my soul and then he finishes me off with that ending!! WOW!!
PAUSSSEEEE
beardgang music convention
Ikechukwu Obi 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
lonnie and cory having some fun over there
My late great aunt was an organist at church, as a child I loved getting close up to see her work those keys.
Probably the fifth time I've been back today just to hear this again. :-D
Is Cory even making contact with the keys, or is he playing them telekinetically?
You know, just Cory Henry killing while Dr. Lonnie Smith just chills in the background........
10000000
Amazing how most people around him are just milling around, completely blas'e about this guy's unbelievable talent!
I agree...especially at the NAMM show you would think people would appreciate him more!
I think they are all musicians and know each other.
that's lonnie smith behind him...
He makes it look so darn simple.
Never noticed Cory rocking the bass pedals...True B3 artist!
My daddy- Dr.Lonnie Smith- the Master of the Hammond B3❤❤
it payes to go to church when learning the B3...lots a gospell in there....love it......
3:47 young Jordan Rudess peeking from distance 😃
Dr. Lonnie Smith casually having a snack in the background lmao
Music is directly tied to the soul! This is why those who master an instrument or even the lyrics to any song of any genre become rich $$ people will forever be tied to music through the soul. It is life, as important as the air we breathe and the blood that flows through our veins.
I cannot conceive why.... why anyone would hit the dislike button.... maybe the 'downturners' could explain why..? Actually: don't even bother... it's your loss!! Cory - total respect to you :-)
Mark J Perry Dislike because they know damn well they can't play a fourth of a chord! Lol
Mark J Perry it's probably a guitarist disliking this ... They can't figure out the riffs ha ha ha
I smashed the dislike because it's all Sanford and Son bullshit...
because there is no more ridiculous or irrationally pointless creature than a human being....they will always find a way to seek negativity
Gb300
love how Dr. Lonnie Smith is In the background lol
This musician
this video sums up everything I love about hammonds
@Eric Bettencourt.. Yep The Hammond can be immitated with the key click and the Leslie but you cant beat the real original thing.
Joe Smith Even if you run an organ synth through a real Leslie it makes a world of a difference. The way those things modulate the sound around a room is something else
This video taught me what an eargasm is
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄 I love it!!!
Ray Charles: "Naturally, as usual, I gotta take an I.O.U."
I can't believe people were just walking around, having conversations, and talking while this greatness was going on. Smh
Theres an overwhelming amount of talented people at NAMM, this causes people to become less interested in the talent, etc., after a period of time.
I'm sure the other musicians are totally freaked out at how good Cory is ,and play it like, "no bid deal". Egos getting crushed.
The average person does Not fully appreciate talented organists / pianists. Only those who play musical instruments will understand how much work it takes to become a great musician.
Amazing!!! I can't comprehend why this would have even 1 dislike
I’m a good pianist but I cant wait for the music theory courses I’m taking so I can learn to improv and make my own stuff like this guy
He's just having fun all throughout! Love to see his speed and confidence
It's impossible to be in a bad mood after listening to that.
I was in a bad mood before watching this again. It really helps . Haha
Cory for president
Dyshof TV: Cory for president -- of the · University of California, Berkeley, music division. At least, let see if his music can soothe those savages souls studying: subterfuge, subjugation, and socialism.
Cory in the house
