Hammond Organ

The sound of A Whiter Shade of Pale

 


'The instruments used were piano, organ, lead guitar, bass guitar and drums, and it was the haunting sound produced on the organ which captured the ears of disc-buyers the world over.'

Denny Cordell, Bristol Evening Post, 14 February 1969

'A funereal organ establishes the haunting, almost sacred tone ...'

Q Magazine, February 1999
