Product: Portable B-3mkII, XK Pro System, Sk2
National Endowment for the Arts, April 23, 2020, “Just Have Fun! An Art Talk with Jazz Musician Matthew Whitaker”
NEA: What led you to want to play the organ?
WHITAKER: I think I started playing at church, at the end of church services. My parents didn’t really want me to play it, probably because they thought it would be too loud. But my church pastor told them to let me play, and then friends gave me a small organ. After that I got a Hammond A100, then finally a portable Hammond B3, and a few others as well.
NEA: Just how portable is a portable Hammond B3?
WHITAKER: [Laughter.] Well it’s still pretty heavy but it’s definitely lighter than others.
