I Bought A Theatre Organ | Rialto Returns | Episode 1 

This is amazing! I was incredibly tempted to buy that console - being in Lincoln - but ultimately I couldn't because I'd have nowhere to put it. I'm so glad it went to a good home, and it's great that you're documenting its conversion to a useable instrument again!

Came across this by accident . I'm intrigued and dying to see it progress. I'll be keeping an eye out for more. 🙂

Great video Alec. Well done.

Well done bro!

Very enjoyable to see your progress. I did not realise what a state the console was in. I look forward to future videos, both on this and things such as the winding engine you mention.

Great to see your progress ! I often used to see the console at Eagley Bank House, Bolton in the 1980's.

good luck with the project! Amusing how you didn't tell your Dad about the organ. When I had my Compton electrone, I 'forgot' to mention to my other half that there was an external speaker cabinet! I was not popular for a good few days!

Very interesting. I have subscribed as I want to watch your progress with what could be a lovely sounding organ.

A very interesting project. I'll follow this with interest. Great work so far. Ive been considering similar for a while now for my HW Paramount 341 setup, so Ill follow this with interest. Well done Alec. Best wishes. G 🎶

Really good Alec

Love an organ restoration project ❤ subscribed!

Wow! What an amazing project, and apparently you have done a mass of work already. It takes huge dedication. I wish you well with it Alec. I will follow your progress.

I can hardly wait to here it again someday🥰

Having has 2 Compton cinema organs complete with there pipes and now finishing my own 5 manual 40 rank digital cinema organ I understand all the work it takes, The Compton console I have is all that remains of the ex-Halifax console after to top was eaten by woodworms. Keep up the good work.

I'd love to have a proper cinema organ console like that (Hauptwerk'd too obviously!) but mine happily goes along for now... You've certainly upgraded from that custom bodge job Wyvern-come-Hauptwerk-come-TTT Blackpool samples! I look forward to seeing how your project progresses!

Brilliant 👍

Absolutely brilliant what youre doing,i found your channel quite by chance and I`m so glad I did ! I started playing the organ at the age of 12 (Im now 60 in a few weeks and sadly disabled now so cant do what I used to ) and my first foray into the world of the theatre organ was at the age of 14 , sat nervously on the organ bench next to the late Carlo Curley at Wurlitzer Lodge in West London in 1978 , sadly now the only room I have now is for a small home organ,Midi capable so I can use "miditzer" software so I can still relive my memories,just wanted to say,above all keep up the good work and I will be avidly following your channel now ! interested to know if its not an impertinant question,How much did it cost you to purchase the console ? Many thanks Chris
