ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
The organ trio, in which the mighty Hammond B-3 is accompanied by guitar and drums, is given a powerful contemporary spin by Delvon Lamarr. A native of Seattle, Washington, Lamarr is a skilled rhythm player and improviser whose sound on the much-loved keyboard has a gritty, sometimes rugged character, with the high register of the instrument being made all the more prominent due to a careful, often spare use of the bass pedals. Guitarist Jimmy James is a hugely soulful frontline partner who could almost be Steve Cropper to Lamarr’s Booker T while drummer Grant Schroff supplies a tight, crisp backbeat that makes the group irresistibly danceable. As this concert from the Jazz à la Villette festival shows, its influences extend to the classic ‘70s funk of The Meters as well as the ‘60s R&B of Billy Preston. A highly endearing personality and good communicator on stage, Lamarr is a trusted keeper of the flame of black music that has deep roots in the rich soil of both gospel and the blues.
