This particular XB-2 Hammond organ has gone around the world with me more times than I remember - played Heinekin Jazz Festival in Rotterdam, at least 5 or 6 Frankfurt Musikmesse's, Radio Melody Austria, NDR Radio Hamburg, Radio France Inter, Music China Shanghai, on cruise ships, AFN Radio, Prague Czech Republic even Louisville Kentucky!
- then came my XK-3, XK-1 and now touring with Sk1 - next stop: Atlanta, Jon Hammond
Serial number plate from my precious early model XB-2 old friend never let me down in my international travels - the later XB-2's had a completely different number plate underneath the organ - this one was one of the first pieces when it was introduced by my good friends at Suzuki Musical Instruments in year 1991 - special thanks to my hero - Hiromitsu Ono! Jon Hammond incredible job of designing - even The Rolling Stones used an XB-2!
Jon Hammond: My original XB-2 Hammond organ, one of the very first pieces on the job here on world-wide radio broadcast on AFN - American Forces Network at Frankfurt Headquarters, actual video: http://youtu.be/S1DXhw1z_rc This remarkable film documents 3/17 1994 AFN POWERLITE Show live broadcast of JON HAMMOND Band playing and talking on-air with host MARGIE GLAD 'The Voice of AFN Europe" 873AM/MW at that time.

Pocket Funk as heard on The Jon Hammond Show TV program on MNNTV and on Late Rent album - Behind The Beat http://behindthebeat.com/2004/12/jon-hammond-late-rent/ by Steve Rosenfeld "Jon Hammond says "the fingers are the singers.'" The latest CD from this exceptional and soulful Hammond organist is the proof. "Late Rent" draws on decades of great recording sessions and top live performances to showcase his own playing and many top jazz and funk artists. It shows why the Hammond organ is one of the most enduring electric instruments and why Hammond is one of its best players."
