Hi Scott,
I couldn't agree more...., he is definitely clean on both piano and
organ..., and he is one funky player...., always has been.  Out of all the
British players, he was always my favorite.  My band that I played in back
in the 70's used to do a version of "Whenever You're Ready".  It was
nothing close to Brian's version, but I have a copy of it that I converted
from old reel to reel tape to CD format.  It was recorded live at one of
our gigs and the sound isn't too bad for 1974.  Let me know if you'd like
to have a copy of it. and where to send it as an attachment.

Regards,
Dave
