This instrument came from the Paradise Theater in Chicago. It was my favorite instrument of all time, although I only got to play it two times. Thanks for the nice words, and as soon as I can get access to another one, I want to do a CD on it.
The organ came from the Paradise theater in Chicago and was purchased by Richard Vaughn in Los Angeles and George Wright did many of his famous recordings on it, and then it was sold to Bill Brown in Phoenix and it was in his home until he passed away, and now it is somewhere in the east going to a museum I heard.
Great work Wally! Yamaho5: excellent recording! I've heard Wally live only once many years ago at a restaurant in Oklahoma City. I think the instrument was a Conn. On a real organ he's even more amazing!
Glad to konow Wally is in Oklahoma--but where? I'd love to listen to him live anywhere, anytime. Has he thought fo playing for Organ Stop Pizza in Mesa, AZ? Actually, I can't get enough of this video with the awsome talent & sound. What an awsome sense of modulation!!

Awesome piece of machinery. I have friends who have one of these in their garage out of the Cinderella Theater in Detroit. Unbelievable.

Great style Wally! Very listenable. "This Could Be The Start of Something Big" could be the name of a future CD.
