Reply to Are distorted/overdriven keyboards common? by Foxster957
It was very common in the 1970s. Bands like Deep Purple and Uriah Heep did it often and others occasionally did it like Jethro Tull, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Genesis, Yes, Gentle Giant, etc. Probably the most famous song to use distorted electric organ power chords is Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water (1972). It starts with just guitar, but when it gets really crunchy it's the organ joining in.

Genesis have The Farm. It's their own recording studio. By the time they built it in 1980 they had already recorded all of their best albums (in my opinion), but they did go on to well deserved commercial success.

Quite a few, but one in particular is Twisted Sister - We're Not Gonna Take It (1984). That video cracked me up when I first saw it in 1989 at 6 years old and I still think it's a great song, a classic rebel's anthem. How can you not smile watching this video? Good fun.
