The STOPS 32nd Anniversary Concert in 2004 was performed by 4 organists, using at various times, the Unique Hilsdon Unit Orchestral Pipe Organ, a Hammond T402, a Yamaha HS8, and a Yamaha EL900. The finale was a version of The Dambusters March played by all four organists together, playing all four organs.
Where known, the organist's picture is shown during their playing selection.
Not all the tape was recoverable, so here is the content which was, warts and all, with almost all of the programme on the Hilsdon being performed by Tommy Gladston, with short selections being played by others.
