Guessing I don't want to know about EC and his laundry.

Don Leslie presented his invention in 1937 to Laurens Hammond. It made his organs sound so much better but he refused to cooperate with Leslie. He tried to block him at every turn, refusing to let his organ dealers sell Leslie products. He even brought out his own version of the Leslie. Hammond was a jerk. Eventually Hammond Organ was bought by CBS, they honored Leslie for his contributions before he retired. His speaker cabs are still sold today and are an important part of rock music and the hammond sound.

A Hammond and a Leslie sounds like the band is stuck on Sunday.
Do the horns in the Leslie still spin? Sorry old man remembering older technology.

When it goes as far as ironing sheets, the standard recommendation is an active sex life.
Yeah....I wasn't being literal....

Many rock songs with an organ use a Leslie. Not to mention all the phasers and and chorus pedals that emulate the sound. Zeppelin’s Heartbreaker used a Leslie on the bass.
Yes, in those Leslie’s like the most popular model 145, 147, and the 122 there is a rotating bottom bass drum and a rotating treble horn. Separate motors control the top and the bottom, they have different speeds. The classic setup is a two speed motor, or optionally wired with an on-off switch.

I just seem to remember going to a Lee Michael's concert and when he fired his keyboards up there was a speaker cab that had what I thought were horns spinning underneath and seemed to give a tremelo effect. I asked my cousin what that was and he said it was a Leslie. I said OK.
To this day I still say OK.

Thank you Freddy. Boy does that bring back memories. In the middle of the keyboard solo and watch as whoever's reach down and throw a switch. It was almost a art form with the timing and placement. But other than Lee Michael's I can't put my finger on the keyboardists and there were more than just one. I hate it when those cells won't fire.

Much of the credit for that goes to my Mesa head. Agedhorse is also a hero.
