Thank you- love this.

Load of.crap. this organ is a Hammond.

If I wasn't reincarnated I simply have a passion beyond understanding for 1930's music on theater organ, namely Conn Theatre Organ. I was given a Lowrey Stardust recently. I still have to pick it up, but as I listen to this Conn Martinique, well I wish it were a Conn Theatre Organ. Or better yet, a Rodgers. This week there is a dreamy 1966 custom built Rodgers 3 manual Theater organ with 2 Rodgers speaker and one or two Leslie speakers in Carson City Nevada they are essentially giving away! It's on e b a y. As it is, I do have a 1958 Conn Classic 815 with excellent tone. It's a bit of a maintenance headache, but at least tube organs are a piece of cake to troubleshoot. I'll probably try to find a good sampled Rodgers Theater organ and just MIDI it to the Lowrey Stardust. If it was the next model in line, the Lowrey Prestige, well it has excellent theater tone, as basically the Stardust is what Windows 98 is to Windows XP. Night and day for realism. That said, these days MIDI modules are cheap. I do tend to like Analog Electronic Theater Organ almost more than Hauptwerk sampled pipes. It's odd, but I like the Tone + Animation of individual transistor oscillators with induction coils. Rodgers perfected electronic theater organ tone IMHO.

7:40 can anyone tell me the title of the tune he’s playing please?

EXCELLENT performance!!!!

Lovely, but I wouldn't want them as neighbours!

Nicholas Martin in 1997? That's 26 years ago. I took lessons on a three-manual Conn 652 in Minnesota, USA.

I don't have the lift, but I do have 5 ranks of real pipes combined with pipe samples. It is the love of my life!

Great video of a favourite organist of mine. Loved the ending with that guy in the audience, sounds like he enjoyed the Dambusters March 🤣

Thank you so much for this video.

Oh how wonderful to see this. 1997 seems like another world compaired to today !

She flew over me as a young boy living in Woking Surrey.. Scared the living Sh't outta me

Wow! That’s a Yamaha HX-1 I think. Don’t see many of those anymore.

A beautiful and well made Production. I enjoyed that ...Bob

What a fabulous and talented player Nicholas Martin is. Thank you Marianne and Brian, very enjoyable video.

Amazing that Conn organ company had the attacks perfect and even though not digital sampling, but analog that it sounds so close to the real pipe theater organ.

Thanks for the insight' into your railway, we've just made a gopro walk through of Caernarfon, so good to see someone else presenting the area to the world! Thank you.

What a great evening of entertainment. I remember, many years ago attending weekly organ club. 3m organ club in Essex. Sadly, the organ which was once so popular has now all but disappeared. Very nice trio of organs there though. Have a few myself and occasionally have a chance to "rescue" another to add to collection!

Why oh why has this plane can no longer fly... surly they can get it back into our skies.. the Vulcan not flying is a result of backers stupidity.

Hi, what kind of speaker system does the organ have? External Leslie's, pipes, etc?

What a lovely piece Bill, reminiscent of Family entertainment from years ago....Compliments of the Season ...Regards...Bob

Great video, to anyone that enjoys this clip feel free to visit our website at www.blomsbulb.com

Excellent production, and how refreshing to have a female narrator...Best wishes....Bob

Some stunning images, if that Red Kite centre was the one South of Rhayader then I visited that some years ago now, and it was an amazing sight seeing these beautiful birds congregating at this point and swooping down for their food....you've also captured some superb images of these Owls....Bob

Many thanks Bob. 99% of the camerawork was by my very skillful colleagues.

A very enjoyable piece....beautiful colours and excellent camera work throughout....Bob

Great video as always! You did we'll to get audio of the tour guide.

Many thanks for your kind comments FQ. Once clear of the Porthmadog area this is arguably an even more attractive journey than the Ffestiniog Railway.

mouth-watering, great advert for the railway. I must take a ride soon, used to walk the old track on trips to Snowdonia.

A comment like this - from one as expert as you - is very much appreciated Bob. By the way the camerawork on the charity video isn't mine - just the post production work. Harefield Hospital Television taught me so many skills. Alas these days - following a bad car accident - I have a disability that makes shooting difficult at times.

Thank you so much Bob. As you can see I was fighting a difference of several stops between the hanger and outdoors. Plus on a few occasions the camera and tripod were not in place soon enough. But I think the fascinating subject matter made it bearable.

Superb advertisement for your work.....10/10....Bob

Excellent work, and very interesting to hear an expert giving information about the exhibits....Bob

This is the first one of your videos I have watch, and it is of the highest quality in terms of camera work and post production.....Excellent work, with no need to change anything....I rarely subscribe these days as I have too many already, but with work if this caliber I have subscribed...Regards...Bob

Thank you so much for your kind words. Its nice to see an appreciation from the USA.

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing this with us.

@TheAndypansy why are your comments about Harefield being removed as soon as you post them
