Came across this sweet backing track from Joey DeFrancesco and Jamey Abersold of the classic '60s Soul Jazz standard Mercy, Mercy Mercy.  I am playing the Hammond on the right channel and Joey D the great comping on the left.

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares.

My Hometown
