Bravo! Here are a few things our theater pipe organ/ electronic theater organ ( TPO/ETO) fans might know about already, but some might not. -vid *Legendary Theatre Organists* , which also features a great old Paramount short film reel about the then-new Hammond organ. -vid *SM001 Crying For The Carolines (Dec., 1930)* *Early Hammond legend Milt Herth's take on 'The Woman in the Shoe* ( the sheet music), compare to this 1930 2-color performance: -vid *Woman In The Shoe Internal MGM Studio Disk Excerpt Take From Musical "Lord Bryon Of Broadway" (1930)* -vid *17 Rank Pipe Organ* ( Mark Dalton ytb ch) -vid *"Broadcast Pioneers" Don Blair Talks With Radio Pioneer Rosa Rio* -vid *Jesse Crawford (1933)* ( an interview with the great Jesse Crawford, who refined/invented "theatre organ" glissando as a result of movie house audience feedback. One night Jesse noticed a woman behind him in the audience would swoon every time he played a glissando. So Jesse spent mornings practicing and refining before the matinee feature began. vid- *Eric Lord Playing in the style of Jesse Crawford* Eric gives a lesson on Jesse's techniques on a Conn 580 [Just saw one on the Eb ay]
