ADSRLFO is correct; Ray recorded that with song with a Wurlitzer 120. I use the Nord's Wurlitzer sound (which was sampled with a 200A, but the action and the reeds on the 120 and the 200A are the same). The Wurlitzer 2 Amped sound was sampled using the same instrument but with a different amp setup that I think is a little too wild for What'd I Say. Adjust the touch controls as needed for your playing technique to get the "bark" close to Ray's sound. Depending on your amplification system, you might need to try one of the amp simulations in the effects section.
