Rest in peace dear Joey now playing organ with the anothers organ legends 🙌🙏

RIP Joey. Now he's playing in heaven with all the greats!

RIP, Maestro! A master on his Hammond B3.

What a loss, RIP Joey!! Fly to the moon and beyond!

Absolutely magical when he played. How many times did I listen and find myself playing “air B3” … every time I listened! RIP Big Man.

Besides having total mastery of his instrument and a deep grasp of music theory, Joey DeFrancesco had an innate ability to 'swing his ass off'. That's why all his performances are filled with such joy. I can't believe he's gone. RIP maestro perfetto.

saw Joey live with the Great Jimmy Smith. A small club in L.A. Joey was groovin' away as I watched and drummed on my seat, unseen Jimmy entered the room and stood behind me and placed his hands on my shoulders! I slowly stood and hugged him. Add that to meeting James Brown, seeing and meeting Count Basie and Ella Fitzgerald as they sang and played in my neighbor's living room, I had a few great experiences as a kid.

The Big Guy took no prisoners. He slayed them all. R.I.P Sir Joey 🙏🏾

The organ is the most underused instrument in jazz/smooth jazz. Thank-God for people like Joey!

I'm actually a really good Hammond player ... but it blows my mind every time how guys/gals can play pedals AND all that other sh*t at the same time!!! I confess, at present, I can't do it. Joey is (was) definitely one of the best. Shame he passed, yes, but look at the incredible catalog he left behind. What more could an artist or his fans desire. R.I.P. Joey DeFrancesco. One of my inspirations to be sure.

Best version Fly me to the moon ever!

The best Jazz organ player has left the building - what shocking and sad news! To me, he was Jimmy Smith's successor and he did him proud for sure! He could not only easiliy compete with the very best organ players in the world on a technical level but he had an amazing feel for melody. Most importantly, he was entertaining and a joy to watch besides what he played. He is terribly missed, what a huge loss, especially for us Hammond organ enthusiasts! I'm gutted ...

Ive been drinking a beer and smoking a joint listening this song every Friday for the lasts two months, every time the same feeling. Mellow moon jazz madness, great upload.

Joey just the greatest living organist for this type of music. There were many others that are now gone, but thankfully Booker T. Jones is still with us. Long live the mighty Hammond Organ!!! Thanks for posting.

NEVER HEARD OF HIM,SO ALFRESO IN LAS PALMAS 201I APPROX.HE BLEW ME AND THE PLACE APART.JAW DROPPING.I HEARD OF HIM BACK THEN..REST. IN PEACE DEAR HAMMOND MASTER EVERLASTING AMEN.

Rest in Peace!!! Hope you continue play the keyboards where ever yOu aRe. You are AmazinG !!!

What a feel they put in to this...

I can appreciate the musical chemistry of this trio. They took no prisoners!!!

Your spirit is soaring way past the moon Mr. Defrancesco. I'm sure you were greeted by all of the musical greats who went before. Enjoy your ride and rest in peace sir.

This trio swings HARD! Warms my heart.

Out of all of the videos on KZfaq this is the one I have seen the most. I have viewed this hundreds maybe 1000 times. Joey is one of my favorite musicians of all time. May he rest in peace

Que mas se puede decir de este Genio del Hammond...solo queda escucharlo admirarlo y tratar de aprender lo mas posible de el. Su manera de improvisar, Eso es sentir la MUSICA!!!! Gracias por tanta sabiduria plasmada en tu instrumento....Desde Argentina....Silvano Vitale

What incredible band! This is music!!! The most beautiful interpretation of this jazz standard! Frank Vignola is great and his guitar solo is perfect, but DeFrancesco is a true genius!!! Thanks!

Wow! as usual. Joey now plays with the angels and other musicians in heaven.

Joey's the man! I can watch this guy groove for hours. I'm an M3 player myself and can throw down some funk but, when it comes to joey he's got that swing! Damn! the man has got the swing! Tear up them keys son! Tear it up and burn the house down!! You set the "B" on fire with flava!!! Go joey! Go!!!

Joey was an incurable talent and a perfect gentleman as is Frank Vignola. I had occasion to meet both and both were most gracious and supportive. The world could use more of their kind. Joey will be missed.

Hello I'm a french Hammond Organ B3 and Piano player, friend from Rhoda Scott. I like very much the way you play. 5***** and I took it under my favorites. musipass

The synergy is great in this one, you can almost feel the vibe through the camera & microphones!

Rest in Peace Joey, say hi to Miles for me!

Love it! Played in a jazz organ band for 4 yrs on guitar. I really miss that sound! Great job!

a great version of a great classic! Joey is amazing.

REST IN PEACE TO THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!

Damn we lost a great !! Thank god for recordings.

You can tell these guys are just loving it so much. Biggest grins. Making music is the best feeling.

I remember seeing Joey at the baked potato in north Hollywood. Loved him then love him now.

love 'em both!!! so phantastic .... this music makes me shiver ....

I keep swinging back here every year or so just to drink it in. love it...

RIP Joey DeFrancesco. We will miss you. Thank you for all you have given to the world. You were humble, very humble, like all great people. You joined Jimmy Smith and the others in Heaven and in Legend. Respect.

A legend has left us.

I love Joey and the guys and could listen all night long!!!

May He Rest In Peace 🕊🕊 I’m sad about this one🙏🏾💙

JOEY DeFRANCESCO - organ! FRANK VIGNOLA - guitar! JOE ASCIONE - drums! (R.I.P.)

One of the biggest. Love Joey Great to hear someone that can improvise over an evergreen without completely destroying it

Probably one of the best jazz organ artist on the planet!

i could listen to this all day! Great!

Genius at work and so very much missed.

The end is right out of the Basie recording with Sinatra. Great stuff!

Joey is the best. There is simply nothing more you can say. He is truly gifted.

Thank you Joey for a live show in Edmonton Alberta that I’ll never forget. Your talent and musical feeling was at such a high level , and hopefully will inspire other young players to reach for the moon, too.

Thank you Joey, for your music and the joy you will continue to bring. Rest In Peace 🍷💗

the essence of the Basie Band in one organ! That swings harder than 50 horn players and no rhythm guitar! A masterpiece of tasty playing. keep your modern stuff I love the groove.

Yes indeed Joey. Love it. Love it.

Great Musician, thank you for posting

Man, thank you so much for uploading it.

Saw him years ago in Philly at a small restaurant venue. Awesome. He even autographed the Keyboard Magazine that I brought because he was in the issue. We had just a few quick words, what a really nice guy! Saddened by his passing, grateful for what he has given to me and the rest of the jazz loving world. Grazie, Joey!

Going to miss you player. R.I.P

Thanks for the great music Joey!

Joey DeFrancesco..... no words.... just awesome

I'm not even a keyboard player, and I have to say that Joey D is a huge inspiration. I'm a sax player, and I spend hours studying his technique. There's so much that I want to incorporate into my own playing.

hot damn Joey! Love ya man. This is some spiritual other level gold

lots of emotion. i love it.

Love that solo, Frank!!

Simply.... brilliant. Sweet. Smoov. Dirty. These guys know their swingS...

brilliance is just plain ol' practice......for 90 years!!!

Fantastic as always Joey. Philly! :)

Gorgeous. Amqzing. RIP, Joe. And thhnk you. 🥰

I agree, Joey is just so great to listen to no matter what he is playing. Along with his amazing virtuosity. He really perfected the B3 in my opinion.

This gets into such a sweet groove

Sensational.......and so is the Hammond B3.

Awesome Jazz. Can't get better than this!!!!!!

WOW!! Just heard you for the first time! Gotta lotta catchin up to do!! PLAY IT JOEY!!

JUST AWESOME !!! music ithere to improvise I am on the way to moon !! Bravo

You're hearing a master at work, with very solid support. Joey builds this thing till it swings into orbit.

Great DeFrancesco, Great Vignola. I love them

Joey played the organ like his dad played saxophone. Gifted.

I just got turned on to Joey a couple of years ago, and all I can say is: How the heck did I miss this guy. He's probably the best I've ever heard. Man, what a player, what a heartfelt player. I'm sorry he died so young but thank God we have all this music of his on tape or video. God rest your soul, Joey. Marc Trainor

This is the best episode of AFV ever.

He and Frank made such a perfect pair. Two greats. Rest in peace Joey and remember, that Frank is is still alive and kicking it. Support his efforts.

Great! Love it when Joey dose that trill near the beginning Frank looks over an grins. Great drummer.
