History of the Hammond B-3 Organ
Because of my interest in analog synthesizer technology, and the fact that I am an jazz organ player, specifically, a Hammond organ player, I thought it would be fitting to do a report explaining the technology used in the original Hammond organs (quite possibly the world’s first synthesizers), and explain how their immense popularity in the 50’s and 60’s helped shape the technology of the earliest synthesizers, and the needs of early keyboard players in general.

Wikipedia Hammond
he Hammond organ is an electric organ which was invented by Laurens Hammond in 1934 and manufactured by the Hammond Organ Company. While the Hammond organ was originally sold to churches as a lower-cost alternative to the wind-driven pipe organ, in the 1960s and 1970s, it became a standard keyboard instrument for jazz, blues, rock music and gospel music.
