Thanks, George. I was always a fan of guitar (like any kid from the 50s), but these journeymen musicians taught me to love (and play) bass and drums, too. Many years later, I could have such fun and make a comfortable second income playing in taverns and bars. I assembled an entire kit of Fibes drums with Zildjian cymbals. The neighbors might not have liked it, but my little brother got a kick out of it.
 
Nice Duck Dunn guitar accents and riffs in this one also:

Thanks for the link. My college band featured a Hammond C3 console organ with a Leslie. Killer combo! The C3 was a PITA to move, but at least it was better than a B. Porta-Bs came out many years later, but IMO, the sound was not the same.
Your knowledge, experience and musical abilities are beyond mine. Thanks for the info. Booker T (and the MGs, including the Duck) got a nice sound out of his organ that I've never been able to exactly reproduce.
