Short, sweet, and to the point!  I couldn't agree more.  I learned Bach 
on a Hammond, I played cheesy standards for my parents on a Hammond, I 
played Jazz and Rock on a Hammond, and am currently playing Blues (GASP!) 
on a Hammond ("OH MY GOD - he should be playing an out of tune, broken 
upright piano to get that traditional Chicago sound").  I do draw the 
line when my wife wants to play 'Tammy' (only song she knows) on my 
Hammond.  

As far as opinions about music are concerned, a good friend of mine summed 
it up like this - "Opinions are like a**holes; some are bigger that others, 
and sometimes people have more than one". 

While I enjoyed this thread in the beginning, I would personally like to 
see an end to this.  We are here to discuss Hammonds (et al), not musical 
taste.

Move Air More Often blah, blah, blah blah....
