  • Great organ, great voicing, great songs I think the economical arrangements are so in alignment with the musics content that I keep coming back for more. You manage to portray the essence of the song to me in a remarkably gentle way. Your reverence for the music is refreshing. I do hope you post more videos

  • Many thanks! Working on some new things for upload soon!

  • Great sound! Great Playing! Wonderful registrations!

  • Many thanks! Got a couple of more coming this week! :)

  • It is clear even on PC speakers how authoritative Allens TO sound is. Larsens tune, a GW4 and Strony voicing-quite a combo. It could almost pass for an alternate take from the original recording at the Brown residence. Hope Bob has more to Posthorn, er I mean post.

  • Thanks! More on the way shortly.

  • Of course I'm not affiliated, but there is a complete GW4 on e bay right now for about 39 grand and you know compared to a Lowrey it sure looks like a much more incredible organ that should hold it's value somewhat for years. Then again there are some folks up in akron who can't give away their green tabbed two manual Allen that i KNOW sounds great! I don't need another organ. I have a Thomas Palace III, a Wurlitzer 4500, 625t and a recent $100 find- a 46' Wurlitzer Orgatron & a 310 Rotary cab.

  • Very, very nice sound from the Allen. The playing is beautiful in all your videos. I totally agree with everyone. I'm glad I found your channel.

  • Beautiful, absolutely beautiful.

  • Digital sampling has come so far so quickly. I'm sure it must make you go looking for pipework to hear it in person...

  • "healsinger" has said it all! I concur fully!
