hehe, i didnt think you would. These were the words used for the hymn in a sitcom here in the UK, called One foot in the grave, whos main character, Victor Meldrew was always whining about things!
there's a bloke named victor meldrew always on the bleeding moan every time we fix his bloody honda he starts grousing on the phone! victor meldrew, victor meldrew he can stick it up his arse he can bugger off till kingdom come
Thanks! Those four 32' stops (all real and FULL LENGTH!) go a long way! The 32' Bombarde is definitely the loudest 32' stop I've ever heard! I'll be uploading another vid of this organ today... stay tuned!
The 32' Bombarde and 32' Dulciana were part of a 1915 Skinner instrument built for this same sanctuary (Opus 231). That instrument was replaced with a Rueter in 1970(?), but they kept those two 32' stops and the 4' Flute Celeste II. When Skinner Opus 308 was moved to this church in 1981, they were lucky to keep these four 1915 Skinner ranks (as well as the antiphonal Chamade from the Rueter).
I love Skinner organs!!! My church in Pennsylvania has a Skinner 32 built in 1895. T

Very very nice and a excellent performance. The organ has a lovely mellow tone.

Thank you! It's a gorgeous organ, one of my favorites... one of the best in the world I'd say.
