Dr. Lonnie Smith was on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night playing with The Roots.
Scott was Dr. Lonnie Smith’s Hammond Tech and supplied the new Hammond
SK2 Keyboard/Organ to use for the show. Shown with Scott are Dr Lonnie
Smith and The Roots, Questlove and James Poyser. Great show!!
Did you know that on this day in 1950, RCA Victor announced that it would manufacture long-playing (LP) records. These were 33 1/3 rpm, 12" records. Up until this point there were a few record formats being produced (78, 45 and 33 1/3 rpm). The LP's gained in popularity. Performers
took advantage of the longer playing time on the LP's to create coherent themes or
concept albums. The LP has remained the standard format for vinyl albums.
