That track Rock Me In Dub (from the LP Negrea Love Dub)
has a wicked Hammond sounding organ at the beginning. To me it sounds very oriental like the music one would hear in those old kung-fu movies. I would put my head on the block and say it probably ranks up there with some of the best.
Which song/s that has/have a Hammond sounding organ would you consider your best?

Good topic.

I nominate "Brother Joe" by Gregory Isaacs. In fact that riddim appears to have come from the same session of musicians. That whole album by gregory isaacs (forget the name) has wicked hammond throughout.

Album is "Cool Ruler" and yes, many wicked tunes in that style ("One More Time" for example).
To contribute a tune by another artist I nominate "Slaving" by Lloyd Parks. Good thread!

im not an expert in Hammond organs but first that come to mind of what sound like organ

burning spear - this population
chester coke - behave yourself
prince hammer - 10.000 lions
sylford walker - jah golden pen (not sure if that one counts)
bim sherman - world go round
- slummy ghetto
jennifer lara - jah will lead us
barrington levy - whome shall i be afraid of
bagga - daughter of zion

all gemms

I love the organ on Junior Delgado's All I Have Is Love

Negrea Love Dub (featuring Linval's 'Rocking Vibration') and Slum Dub (featuring Gregory's 'Cool Ruler') share some riddims.

Personal alltime organ favourite: Otis Gayle "I'll be around" and all instrumental versions of it.
