@Diapasonic Thank goodness he did play it, it lacks nothing ...no, actually I'm not hearing something that should be there... that's probably what he wasn't liking. Jesse's great playing has made me a good lister. In fact it wasn't Jimmy Smith that made me hear what a Hammond could do after I became board after several years of playing, it was Jesse Crawford. I uploaded a complete Hammond album of his. He demonstrated that the Hammond organ could sing! with theater techniques:)

@genatzvalee Please listen to the playing of John Winters on my upload of the record- ' Organ Moods John Winters at the Mighty Wurlitzer ' side 1, then side 2
John recorded this sometime in the 1960's and although it's not a pipe organ it certainly had me fooled. On the record sleeve it doesn't say the model of Wurlitzer he is playing. I'm convinced it is an electrostatic reed Wurlitzer at times ( of course reeds were used purely to generate tones to be used electronically- reeds aren't heard).

Thanks for the input Mark! I will be re-posting all my previous Jesse pieces with my improved technique.

Wonderful! From Crawford's peak years, recorded at the studio Wurlitzer at the Paramount Theatre in New York City, I believe.

@gfks11 My new computer hard drive failed last week. I had a new one put in but now have to spend hours getting software back up. Also getting my settings just right, so due to this I won't be posting much for a bit.

Beautiful and uplifting, as always! It has something to do with both the melody itself and Jesse's interpretation of it. I've been listening to a huge bunch of his records, and this is one of those I used to dismiss but have fallen in love with recently.

@genatzvalee Are fond of any other organists? I have many others that I have not posted. Nice to hear from you.

The recording was made on the smallish 2/8 Wurlitzer in the New York Wurlitzer store. Crawford was not happy recording on this organ, but until the Paramount Studio Wurlitzer was built in 1929, he had no other choice.
