Mystery Machine at the Casino?


No Quota

Recommended Posts

While celebrating today 46 years ago, listening to the Casino 3/7/70, during the song SIBLY there is a strange reverberation that resembles some Scoobie Doo sound effects either coming from Jonsey's organ or some strange feedback.

Is this unique  to my version (a digital error) or was JPJ channeling some Shaggy green or just some random feedback?

I've never heard him trying to duplicate the effect before or after so it just got me wondering.

Probably just the leslie speaker he played his organ through during the early days (with the exception of 6/19/77 :blink:). Its a speaker with a spinning horn for the treble and a spinning cone for the lower ranges. I have a cheap one I use, powered by a fender twin, for guitar and things.

Could be the spring reverb (literally a big long spring) in the organ being bashed.
Jon Lord (Deep Purple) used to make use of the dramatic zingy crash of the spring reverb in his Hammond in concerts by tipping the whole keyboard backwards - whilst playing - and letting it crash back to the floor.

Don't know but that sounds like an awesome name for a boot of that show!

Ha! I do love the creative nature of" boot namin' ". I'm going to search for a thread like that.

The effect starts after the line "All those little things we used to do" around the 2:20 mark and goes on about 10 seconds.
