Let's Talk: Gospel Music Gold - Let's Talk: GMG History of Hammond Organ & Rev. Clarence Cobb

06/25/24 • 38 min

Laurens Hammond Rev. Clarence Cobbs & the 1st Church of Deliverance Laurens Hammond filed for a patent on his musical machine. After Laurens got the company up and running, Hammond’s Serial Number One went to a dealer in Kansas City, where it was used for years as a traveling demonstrator.

The Hammond Organ was an immediate success, and before long, Churches, Theatres and Concert halls were humming to the Model “A”‘s sound. Rev. Clarence "Preacher" Cobbs, Pastor of 1st Church of Deliverance in Chicago, Illinois wanted something different, and procured a Hammond Organ to replace the piano at the request of Kenneth Morris.

Rev. Cobbs was also one of the first African-American pastors to have his own radio show. He immediately began to use the Hammond Organ on his broadcasts, and it was a hit! In 1954, Hammond introduced the organ that secured the legend, the Model B-3. Its Chorus-Vibrato and Touch-Response PercussionTM made sounds that were totally new and fresh. Gospel churches embraced the Hammond B-3 like no one else. The Ministers of Music elevated Hammond playing to a level leaving even the most proficient artists shaking their heads in disbelief. •Please send Let's Talk: Gospel Music Gold an email sharing your thoughts about this show segment also if you have any suggestions of future guests you would like to hear on the show.
