Always thought it sounded a bit like the Doors on extra strong Acid!

It's got that kind of sound. So many late 60s bands with the Hammond organs and various keyboards. This one is the Vox Continental, had the big Hammond sound, but not it's weight/size. Made the roadies much happier. The Mellotron became more popular in the years to follow and Moog, of course. The birth of modern electronic music.

@Drums_McBashington: Some of use can only dream of owning a Vox Continental or a Mellotron, the mechanical synth as some people call it, talking of which even an early Moog? I have quite a few Keyboards and synths but non of them have a REAL Hammond sound to my mind?

@mrghoster: Early Moog. Keith Emerson's wall of confusion. Awesome. Don't know if you liked Genesis or King Crimson, but, Genesis searched every square inch of London looking for the Mellotron that King Crimson used on their first album. Wouldn't accept any others. They eventually found it and then recorded Foxtrot. One instrument on two pioneering Progressive Rock albums. Like a band member.
