Terrific. As an original member of the "New Breed" the melody and lyrics are part of my very soul. You will note my "nom de plume", the greatest #23 of all the Mets, past, present and future (though it should be retired).

Who is the organist? Possibly Jane Jarvis? And what about the middle lyrics, "Oh the butcher and the baker and the people on the streets...."?

Good luck at Stimulus Field!!!

what do u mean by "Stimulus Field"

[TomFredericks187]

You're listening to Shea's queen of melody, Jane Jarvis, at the Thomas organ!

Hey the Cubs are still old school organ along with the Dodger's Nancy Bea.

All we need is to get rid of loser owners the McCourts, and keep the Dodger

Stadium (next fifty) renewal going.

Sports quit being fun when they named the stadiums after major corporations. Egotistical BASTARDS! Jane Jarvis's organ should be piped into every stadium until someone gets a clue and brings back the heart and soul of the game for real. There are hundreds of competent organists, but Jane was special. The Thomas organs of the 1960's have a very big full sound. The perfect ball park organ. Digital sucks.

@jgraif Actually, Jane Jarvis is the only person who can say they "Played" for the Mets, Yankees, Rangers and Knicks...as she spent at least a day in Yankee stadium as a fill in, she did work at the Garden and of course she was the sound of Shea Stadium throughout my childhood.

jane jarvis was a consummate musician. her playing was crisp, accurate and, most of all, musical! i hope the good lord has provided her with the ultimate instrument for her eternal enjoyment. god bless jane jarvis.

@TomFredericks187 jane jarvis (as well as eddie layton of the yankees) were celebrities in their own right who were inseperable from the teams for which they played. they "did it all", cueing the action of the entire game without the need of some idiot technical director. believe me, i know! i played several games for the washington capitals. the tech booth consistently "dumped me" at the end of every sequence i played because it was beyond their understanding that i could "time out" on my own.

@DuoTpia4 Shitibank paid almost the exact amount they got in bailouts for the license to name the new stadium

Greatest Baseball Team in the world...ps the original wurlitzer organ was replaced

in 1974. I still remember the organist it was still in Madison Square Garden until 1982. Nothing got the fans jumping like that 1966 Wurlitzer....
