Sylvia Focus cover (Hammond Organ)
Музыка
This is a "real" cover version of Sylvia. Of course the Hammond part was played in one take. I chose for a clean and full sound, using three mic's.
Of course there are soms strange things like being dyslectic at the start and going out of sync with te movie in the end:P Just watch closely.....

Excellent! The true beauty of a Hammond organ with Leslie manifest.
Fantastic cover, nothing beats the sound of a Tonewheel Hammond and Leslie.
This Van Leer is extraterrestrial. Many focus compositions are classic eternalized until the end of time.Thank you for sharing your good taste in this magnificent instrument.
Saw Focus in Hollywood with Black Oak Arkansas in the early '70's. It was right after Hocus Pocus hit the airwaves. Went to see Jim Dandy. Didn't really appreciate Focus but started listening to them in the last 10-15 years. Incredible sounds
That Hammond sound, man. Super.
Superb sounding Hammond on this classic Focus track
Hurrah for the dutch and their awesome contribution to music that is Focus :D awesome cover man!
Finally someone who has the chords figured out. Ive nearly got it, but from your video i can see where i'm going a bit wrong. Thanx
Just Amazing!! Hammond sound is perfect!!
HAMMOND ORGAN, ONLY WAY TO FLY!
What a great recital!!! Excellent.
Powerful - as it should be!
Total joy. From a lover of the Hammond sound
Awesome. As a guitar player myself I wanted to learn the Hammond part also so I stumbled across this video while I was searching. Sometimes I don't see what you're doing but I can slow down youtube so I can figure it out slowly. I think you nailed it sir. Thank you
Fantastic playing! The Hammond sounds amazing.
Wonderful ! I grew in the 60's and had not heard this song. Thank you for loading this and doing such a great job !
Today I heard this song on the radio, and I thought "wait, this sounds like Focus, let's search for it on KZread". Here I am, my ears are good a little.
About time I hear some Focus. One of MY all-time favorite bands.

素晴らしいカバーです。ありがとう。
@RussoGaara again 88 8800 000 Upper and 00 6600 000 Lower but that's just for some support, not really necessary.. no pedal was used in this version. (Played on a British red cap Hammond A100 from '66 with a Leslie 145...quite original set up)
Magnífico, impecável como sempre!!!
Outstanding work. I love this song and you play it so well. I cant get enough of the sweep up the keys at 2:46 - its such a great sound.
AWESOME ... great sound and playing!
Great job. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone ignores the keyboard player.......until now. Well done man. An awesome song.....nailed. :)

FANTABULOUS!
Love it used to have a Hammond M102 and Leslie great sound
Sensacional! Magnífico! Emocionante demais!!! Obrigado pela execução dessa obra-prima do grande Focus. 👏👏👏🙏 🇧🇷

Formidable cover bien interprété et un très bon son avec votre orgue Hammond , bravo.
Beautiful sound! Holy code progression. God forever.
You have made my day (brilliant)
I've been trying to learn this organ part and your video was a great help. Thank you.
Nice dude ! :-) You beat my Nord... by a mile or 2 :-)
Brilliant
Excellent. Recently started playing this live in the band I'm in - not an easy song to learn but your video helped. Cheers for that.
Fantastic sound thankyou.
Rein, the hammond sound celestial and you play excellent this masterpiece.
Stunning work sir
Superb!
kijk ik zie dat deze man zit te genieten terwijl hij deze muziek maakt dat vind ik nog wel het mooiste wat een hit geweldig zeg, word er bijna emotioneel van haha dat heb ik toch niet vaak:P
beautiful job
Thanks a lot for this version! I was looking for a "guitar karaoke"-version to find out if I could remember the melody correctly without the support of another guitar. This was perfect. Great job on the organ! (Transatlantic did a great version of this song together with van Leer.)
Excellent!
Youre awesome man
Friggin Briliant !!!!!!!!
I love it !
I love this song , I love hammond ! For me this is Best of the Best , Thanks . Dd
amazing, cool, lovely, nice, best cover ever :) :) :) make more focus covers :) Greetings from Norway! :)
wow, you nailed that one. it's one of my favourite songs to play on hammond, although mine's an X5
Very good musician! You know when to speed up and slow down Leslie. This is Hammond's true taste.
Perfect rendition despite the lack of Akkermans, Ruiters and van der Lindens backing real time presence. Very well done. If you ever want to hook up for some oudnederlands symphorock-guitar to jam with, let me know.
Man i Dont have words
Great cover - you don't find many people who can play this correctly....might just use this and overdub the guitar part myself for fun. Cheers.
Fantástico!!!
Beautiful! Very nice sound coming from that organ! And Focus? Best instrumental rock band ever. They kind of like playing Brazil, so I got to see them 5 times already, Thjis Van Leer is a great guy, besides being a jazz/rock genius.
awesome bro
Prachtig!
very good !!!
Excellent sound of your Hammond, i have one.
perfect!!!
veramente bravo
Great!
Brilliant cover
good band
Mooi!
I love Dutch guys on the Hammond: Rick van der Linden (RIP), Thijs van Leer, Rein de Jong ...
Hallo, ik heb je hier gevonden en ik heb de tekst van het favoriete stuk van dit leven geschreven. Wat is het beste om?
Nothing beats those Hammond tubes, tone wheels and Leslie, Nicely done! What kind of drum machine are you using? I like it too!
@marileejd thanks! (red ears)
Sylvia or weissklezelnacht by procol harum, what is better for you? Please write in the answer :)
Prachtig * * * * *
Rein! Je video's inspireren me om vooral verder te leren spelen! Ik zal het helaas moeten doen met digitale Hammond-simulaties :(. Ik weet dat 'ie al vaak gedaan is, maar Child in Time? Plz? Jesse
Hi I found you on here and I've written a lyric to this lifetime favourite piece. What's the best to do please?
Rein supergoed en zeer leerzaam. Ik worstel alleen nog met de accoorden in het 2e couplet na de overgang naar G. Lijkt op Bes D Gm, maar klinkt niet goed. Kun je me helpen?

Thanks Rein. Have you seen Satoritei's guitar version on You Tube? It'd be great to mix your Hammond version with satoritei's guitar both of which are brilliant!

@iandezeeuw Echtwel:P Maar serieus: dankjewel Ian!
@HEMDDO1 Ben ik helemaal met je eens,, als je ziet dat een iemand geniet van het maken van muziek, komt het al heel anders over dan wanneer het stijfjes wordt gespeeld... En het is inderdaad duidelijk te zien dat Rein er van geniet!! :D
Ik ben zo jaloers....de rolls royce onder de orgels, helaas ver buiten mijn budget .....maar wat ben jij een geweldige organist.

Dankje....er zijn ook "goedkope" of kleinere Hammonds. Daarnaast kun je het ook een beetje opbouwen: eerst een orgel, dan de Leslie enz. Maar je moet het echt willen, dat wel. Er komt een hoop bij kijken...vergelijkbaar met een old timer hobby

Begin met een M3 of M101, die zijn betaalbaar. Een leslie is eigenlijk wel een must, maar een goedkoper alternatief is een neo-ventilator pedaal. Kan dan over een "normale" versterker of zelfs op koptelefoon (kun je lekker oefenen zonder ruzie met je buren te krijgen!)
Mooi
thijs would adore, i'm sure ;-)
One hand. Mostly.
What is the song that sounds so much like Bach? 0:30 reminds me of that song. Male singer.

Tamir Burstein Partly by ear. I can't always tell what his pinky finger is playing, but being able to see his thumb and index fingers is helpful. I love this song... I'll try to figure out the rest of it, but Thijs Van Leer is quite fond of tricky chord progressions. I actually have a Hammond Organ like in the video, so if I can get my brother to play lead guitar, we can cover this song too. :)
