I'm sorry mickeymunter, you will have to come to the US if you want to hear some really horrible-sounding band organs. It must be very hard to find "good" bad ones over in the UK if these are the best examples you've got.
In fact, I think I have some more "choice" cuts on recordings I could send you if you want to make another funny video like this one (although they are audio only... supply your own humorous images)
Well i can tell you that the Irvin Marenghi was not sounding that bad at the start of the week! as we gave it a full tune up! It was sounding perfect! you have to realise if the weather is hot or organs are being played constantly all week it does cause them to go out of tune especially organs with plenty of reeds in them. The ex-Irvin Marenghi is an organ with ALOT of reeds in it!
Eddy, this is a joke video. The ex-Irvin Marenghi played fine 30 seconds before this clip and 30 seconds after - all that's happened is that a music book has wandered off track. As to the other organ...no comment...LOL
