That was probably Rose. On stage she usually played piano while Sly played
organ. She must have had a great collection of electric pianos; I've seen
pictures of her with a silver topped Rhodes, an old Wurlitzer, an RMI, and a
Hohner Pianet. Besides the Farfisa Professional, Sly played a Yamaha combo
organ which might also be considered an early Clone. It had sliding levers
that acted like drawbars, a Hammond-like sound, Hammond style percussion,
and all but one or two of the drawbar pitches. You could play it through a
Yamaha RA amp which was probably one of the first Leslie simulators. It had
a rotating treble speakers and a stationary bass speaker - kind of like the
Pro-3 arrangement.
