I'm a big fan of Bo Hansson... do you know on which piece(s) he  
utilised this effect? I don't remember hearing a pitch-bent Hammond  
on any of his music.
Or was it at the beginning of Wandering Song (on the Magician's Hat  
album)? The pitch here goes down pretty fast and then settles on the  
correct value. I always thought this was because the tape machine was  
started after the organ was already playing.

BTW I'm still looking for the Mid i Livet album...
