who
I've had the pleasure & honor of playing with many times there - Eugen kept a lot of musicians working and gave many young musicians their first break - keep his Spirit
and keep supporting jazzkeller folks!! - this is a gig we did 30 years ago sponsored by
Military Division - Joe Berger mixed it under the piano with all
microphones. I'm playing the first Midi by (Hohner Morino IV accordion) of Hammond XB-2 - Herb Ellis was in the front row, he came by my invitation - many special nights we
had with Eugen folks! Stay safe out there, keep masking up in public, I'll be back tomorrow with another Hammond Report, RIP Eugen Hahn,
