Anyone remember the old theater organ "mighty Mo?" or something like that...anyway...40 yrs ago, we had famous organist play at Organ Power Pizza in San Diego area...Reginald Forte, I think? Anyway...someone help me remember, I don't want to sound like a liar, just can't remember names from that long ago!
What style of console is that in the video? Loods like a combination of the French style with an "Aztec" look on the sides! Music was great! Thanks for posting!
This audio was not recirded on the Detroit Senate Wurlitzer, pictured here, it is from Walt's CD "The Modern Theatre Organ" and is recorded on one of Dave Junchen's instruments, the Gilson's in Madison, Wisconsin.
Thanks! Wonderful! And a quite unexpected quotation in the last bars from "Dieau parmi nous" by Messiaen. This player seemes to have a "classical training" as well.
I keep coming back to this video! It's such an inspiring "get up and shout!" piece. YOWZA!

It was recorded on the Krughoff 4/33 Wurlitzer, not the Gilson as I previously posted.

Probably the best arrangement of this tune I've heard yet, on pipes. And I's definitely the Senate.
