Where was this filmed?
-
Has this wreck been sorted out yet?
-
The problem here is with the air suply.
There is a massive air leak somewhere.
The relief valve on the reservoir may be stuck open.
Sort out the air supply, and the oran may work well.

Is that tune meant to be 'Ship Ahoy?'
-
Poor thing!
It probably needs some simple adjustments to the action, and a tune-up. Why can't this job be done? It could so easily provide quality entertainment, and give mechanical organs a good name, instead of showing how awful they can be. And I say this as an organ owner.
-
There should be a law against playing organs in public which are in a terrible state of regulation and tuning - as this poor instrument certainly is! What message does this give the public about mechanical music? :-(
-
Ahhhhhh! (cowers into a corner) I hated that thing growing up in OC.
-
@Pellman31 LOL! I grew up having to listen to that dreadful thing at least once a year.
-
That organ should not be played in public.
It only gives organs in general a bad reputation.
Very sad to hear this.
-
It doesn't like the heat. Send it back home, into it's native climate!
Oops I forgot to list people who can properly work on this organ. OK, there's Tim Westman in New Hampshire, and Alan Erb in California. In Colorado, there is Art Reblitz. In Florida, there is Robert Loeffler, and closest to you perhaps is Don Stinson in Ohio. [Stinson Organ Co] Depending on availability, they are all capable of giving you a hand with your street organ and making sure it plays and sounds its best.

Thanks for the info. From what I understand another gentleman from the Netherlands has volunteered to assist the owner and perhaps I will eventually get to see it operate the way it is suppose to sound and consequently be able to repost the video after it is restored to its' splender!
