Pythodd Fellows

The Pythodd Club in Rochester, New York was where the famed La Barbera brothers were first exposed to real, live jazz, and the Hammond B3 organ was often a part of these groups. Here John uses the organ as a centerpiece, but surrounds it with exuberant proclamations from the rest of the band in a smokin' shuffle chart. Solos are included for organ, guitar and tenor sax.
