Lol, yep, I bought a winch also, to pull logs out of a ravine. Haven't used it yet, but then the logs are still down there. Maybe some day! But I do love my spinner. In fact, I'm so used to using it on the tractor, that many times I go to grab it on the lawn mower. But, it doesn't have one! Thanks for 2 more great vids! I can't wait to see what color the barns are gonna be!

This was an excellent duo. Very sad, though, that Technics is no longer. That digital piano is (was) outstanding! And of course for a modest sized Wurlitzer, it is spectacular!
I was stage manager for this magnificent concert. An amazing day of superb musicianship on Australia's Biggest Little Wurlitzer. Can't wait until the combined societies in Australia can bring Richard back for another concert tour.
Yes a real theatre organ. Celebrations have recently been held to celebrate its 100th birthday. It's been in this location for more than half that time after originally being in a cinema in the centre of Sydney.
A daring project! This music is most difficult and is arranged by Margaret superbly. This is a most impressive 2-manual Wurlitzer, proving again (as George Wright did at the Rialto) that in the hands of a capable artist--the resources are there for making musical history.
Again, absolutely fantastic, Dave at his very best! Everything from Moon River to the Widor Toccata in F, and at what a pace!! How he does this is really beyond me, no music, all from memory and all seamlessly joined together - what genius talent!! I’ve always love the way Dave uses the organ so dynamically, wonderful registrations and color! I think one of Dave’s tremendous features is his professional pedal work, just as good if not better than many classical organist’s….but boy, does the Astoria organ sound so marvellous with Dave playing, as only he can!!!! Thank you for sharing, and thank you Dave for your brillent musicianship!! Adrian in Bermuda❤️💕💕❤️ - PS - as an organ builder, it remains my greatest hope and passion, that one day we will be able to install Bermuda’s first Wurlitzer in one of our theaters or large auditoriums! Please pray for this, if it happens, Dave will be the guy to open it!!! 😀😀🥹🙏🏻🙏🏻💕
I was present at this occasion, but have just come across this particular video. Most enjoyable! Thanks Tony and John not to forget the video/recordist, Russell, for the wonderful sounds.
Even a smaller Wurlitzer has an unmistakable sound. Can't miss it. High-end Wurlitzer electronics had a good sound, too, but there is nothing quite like a pipe organ for visceral presence and dynamic range.
The problem is with the people outside on a couple of trips if they came inside followed by a wave soaking everyone in the front half of the top deck. Everyone was just soaked , fortunately I was back far enough.
