I have GOT to check these out. the only organ video I have is John Peters. He's AWESOME to watch, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for learning. But like I said, it's AWESOME to watch and listen.

john peters can play as good as anyone i've ever seen! but, and it's the most important but; he cannot really teach what he is doing, he is good for show! you as a musician should want to understand what your doing, that way when you get tired of it, you can just change it! understanding in all, is what ya want! even if a person can't play as well as another, can show you more with understanding......i can understand everything john is doing, but it's because i have been taught, but now trying to match what he does is another, that takes time, and practice, and patience............personally, i love what pj does, he is a better teacher than all of them, besides him is robert stephens if you can find his stuff! i would imagine if sabastian had a tape out, it would be awesome, because if you listen to his questions, he always asks the right questions.......and i feel he does all possible to bring the best! i am a questions person, i feel you can learn a lot more from questioning,in my learning, i asked a lot of questions, and i feel i am able to understand all chords, as well as their intentions, as well as their purpose because of it......im no master, but i have learned a lot from these guys.......you shouldnt even consider any other, other than hammondman, he is trully blessed to teach.......stop looking at the way a guy plays, unless you are studying it for the true necessities within the chords and progressions........you'd be surprised to know, how many guys can play with all those phat chords, and if ya ask them to play a simple hymn, it's not possible, and they cant even play a song, simply useing the 1-4-5 in the right place! im saying guys have chords, but no structure! and this is the most critical thing in playing! everything really comes from the proper utilization of the 1-4-5's even the proper placement of the extended chords......but who am i?

I'd have to say PJ Morgan's Master Class is the most informative.

Preaching chords, Substitutions, Intros, Outros, Passing Chords, Talk Music, etc, etc.

He doesn't say the notes in his chords as much as I'd like (He'll just arpeggiate it slowly so you can see for yourself), and it was done before the On-Screen Virtual Midi Keyboard came along, but he gives the names of the chords (which I love) and breaks down what he's doing very well.

He's very good at explaining what he's doing, unlike may other instructors.

I like Butch Heyward, PJ Morgan and Roger Jeans videos I think they are very informative, and they teach a lot of good stuff.

I didn't even realize this came out.  How is it?

Is it 4 and a half hours including alot of talk and nonsense, or 4 and a half hours of solid content?

4 1/2 hours of ANYTHING can be quite tedious. I mean ANYTHING....  ;)

Probably the bet is the one on Gospelchops.com where although the dude "Booyah" Richard is teaching the bass runs, when they play that shout music towards the end of the clip, my Dude David Jackson tears that organ  up although he aint tyrin to.

I'm sorry....I haven't seen this thread in a while, and I didn't see all the questions.....I'll put it this way...If you are trying to learn then Eddie Howard is a great teacher...Don't get me wrong though...It's pretty much like the rest of the Wheatworks videos out there...I sent bro.sebastian an email to see if he could put some clips on the site. One of the most exciting videos is the one listed above by Richard Tolbert..It only plays in my playstation, but it's worth it if you can catch some of the stuff he is doing.

i second that i wish someone would come out with a dvd like jermaine grigs his dvds are the MOST informative but i wish he made an organ one... of course u can convert it but still he is an AMZING teacher cuz he teaches u the progressions not just lil tricks he does idk his dvds helped me understand progressions i recomend his dvds to anyone then next is pj morgan melvin crispell idk he was moving to fast and wasnt really explaining to well its WORTH it tho cuz he is doin some crazy stuff and i get more satisfation out of figuring out rewinding rewinding slow motion... but yeah john peters new dvd is pretty good too
