In my opinion the Fillmore Album, Idlewild South and Eat a Peach were classic albums. The Allmans did not to exist after the deaths of Berry and Duane.

Exactly. A pale shadow of their former selves.
Sorry to hear about one of the Godfather's of BritBlues. I always liked the album version of that song quoted--LJB telling it all to a judge, after being busted for street busking.

As Brother Steven1 did us a solid by mentioning some soul-jazz organists, I thought I'd expand it a bit with an AllMusic.com article on it. I am a huge fan of the B3 and we live in a resurgent time for it, but piano players are in the mix too;

While noted earlier.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSdyhZDfFuk is my buddy....Mike Finnigan blasting out on the B3...straight out of Wichita, Kansas by way of Stephen Stills, Finnigan & Wood, Phantom Blues Band, Jimi Hendrix....(yes...Mike is the keyboardist on Electric Ladyland...), blah, blah, blah. Getting the fucck out of bumfuck, so to speak....; Ya hear me back there?! "HEY!!" "HEY!" that whistle.....YOU CAN'T DO THAT!!! HEY!! HEY!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Finnigan

and we cannot leave out keyboard and B3 lover Brian Auger... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxxSi0JV18Q who, even at age 71 is doing it....and his little daughter ain't too hard to look at....

Yes, we're a bit on the pale side at the moment, not forgetting Jimmy Smith and many, many, many other guys out there. This stuff provides momentary reasons....better than drugs....I think........wait.....well....hmmmm....yeah....wait.....
