One of my Dixon faves is "Peters pop keeps a lollipop shop"

Tony Fenelon also is a brilliant organist, there are lots of them. I have had the great pleasure of meeting some of them and ,unlike rock stars, they are very approachable and friendly people.

@Tiberius1919 Whatever !!

OMG On The Good Ship Lollipop! I loved it! and it's some kind of medley too, so it seems, with Lullaby of Broadway and two other tunes I don't recognize. And what a delight to get a glimpse inside the ballroom itself. Very impressive.

Reginald Dixon's Old Singalongsby wordsmith521,945 views
This sounds like the earlier and smaller WurliTzer organ in the Tower from 1929 -1933.
It was removed to make way for the larger instrument built to Reginald Dixon's own design. The earlier instrument was enlarged, fitted with new console, and installed in Blackpool's Winter Gardens Empress Ballroom. It now forms the large part of the organ in Worthing Town Hall.

wow, your very lucky =) I hope to hear it live someday. Some people think it's odd that I like it, I don't care though =D I actually got into organ music from hearing it on silent movies as backing music and it reminds me of holidays to scarborough when I was little.
