  • David, What's the name of that tune?

  • it is called Circus Renz as far as I know. I copied the arrangement off an old video of a guy we had off TV from years ago.

  • Where in NZ are from? I live in CHCH and going to look and try out a d85, sounds much better then my Technics GX3. Love the real rich organ sound of the d85

  • Hi there, thanks for your comments on my organ playing. I am very out of practice, just bought the old D85 as I used to play organ heaps when I was younger. I learned on a D65 back in the early 1980's.

    I have demonstrated a new Roland a few years back, I would love to afford one of those units now but too expensive for me. The GX3 are a nice organ from memory. Anyway, I live at the top of the south island in Motueka after moving here 4 years ago from CHCH

  • great job dude! who needs a band when you have an organ and someone who knows how to play it. you must be a hit at the VFW.

    allan

  • what is the "VFW"? Not a common term in New Zealand.

    Thanks for your comments, even though it was months ago.

  • You call that 'out of practice' !!! ??? I wish I could do that. 

  • Hi David that tune is called Circus Renze. I have a copy of the sheet music if you would like a copy let me know and i will send you one. I love the sound of the D85. Used to have an FX20 but it was always going bust and cost me a fortune to fix. It ended up at the dump! I have a small Orla at the moment but looking for something like the D85.

    Cheers Reg

  • Thanks, enjoyed your playing and the sound of the D85

  • WOW!!! I'm going to buy the same organ :)

  • I'm so jealous... I'd love to add a D-85 someday. I haven't played one in about 15 years.

  • I have some videos of me playing my GX3 and Yamaha PRS S500. Take a look sometime and see what you think? Would love to see more videos of you playing. You made a good choice of Organ, one of the best older organs. None of the newer Organs seem to match the older style retro sounds as they have gone from being an Organ to an Orchestra. They are nice, but don't quite have the same magic, and it takes a lot more skill to accually play an older organ well and you play well.
