Very nice.

Wurlitzer?

One of the best Organists I’ve ever heard, awesome.

Como no recordar a la actriz Doris Day con esta canción wue ella la cantaba con esa voz tan dulce.

Recuerdo hermoso de Dorys Day,tan delicada.

WOW!!!!!!!!

Very good old music from those old better days😊

I knew Kay when I managed the rialto in Joliet il.. He was to the organ ,what Liberace was to the piano. When he played his concerts, he had a 3x5 card on the organ. (No music). I asked Kay what was on the card? He said " oh, those r the songs I'm going 2 play"

Esse eu tive a oportunidade de ver de perto!!! Maravilhoso!!! Único!!!

His playing is remarkably Brilliant. I wouldn't be surprised he was in the Theater playing for Old time movies and he was the one in the Orchestra pit by himself as he is an Orchestra. Bravo Kay. I also love how the monitor above shows all the keys played during his performance and on which board it was played including the pedals. I just think Theater Organs have to make a comeback. Not many in the world that I am aware of. Thanks for posting this on KZbin for all to see. I loved it. Have always had an interest in music from time I was a toddler. Played at age 3. I can't read a note but love music and do my best. Kind regards to one and all Merry Christmas from Canada, and Patrick myself.

Nothing like old music I love it this performance was Brilliantly performed by this young man.! I hope he is still going. Brilliant performance. Greetings from Canada! Patrick. a tyros 3 player and singer.

Bravo

This man truly knew his way around a theatre organ. He's one of the old-time and all-time greats. What a treasure to have this video of him before his passing. Thanks!

I saw Gary Numan at the Philly Trocadero... March 23rd 2014...it changed my life 🙌

👍

A fitting tribute to an Amazing Artist.....RIP !!

Is that organ as old as he is?

It seems like both Kay and Mr. Phil Maloof are now deceased. How sad. I wonder what happened to this organ.

What a beautiful sound, the Original Synthesizer before Analog and Digital, i love it??

I still get chills & excited every time I see & hear these magnificent instrumental beasts! I feel like a little kid again, sitting in the front row in the theater right next to the.console, just so I could watch the organists work their musical magic.

Like a boss👍

The organ is the Queen 👑💝👑💝👑💝👑💝

💝💝👑love organ👑💝💝

Love Organs💝👑🤩💝👑🤩💝👑🤩 The organ is the Queen👑👑👑👑

fi ve, lol, disses to you

Well played, not headed this version, I like it,

This is the coolest thing i've ever seen 😍

I have an LP recording of Kay playing the Wicks theatre/classic pipe organ manufactured for Oral Roberts University in the 1950s. He played the same excellent arrangement of "Who" on that.

Fab!

I remember Gaylord Carter playing a similar organ when I was a kid; thanks, Kay. Moving and fun!

I think that this theater organ was the ancestor of the synthesizer used now. The human being who created that was a genius and also the player we see now. Thank you for the beautiful music you offer.

Kay was his own show! Having met him many times is the Chicago area. No one could match him for showmanship. Great person!

Wow!!!! That’s amazing! I love this music and the organ!!!

this video was posted 4 days after his death. rest easy Kay McAbee.

To date-98 assholes with thumbs down.

Fine playing, but nothing, NOTHING, sounds like a genuine Wurlitzer. The 'big 'W'' sends shivers down my spine!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful video

Hammond never really had it on the theatre organs

Me too

Я наконец-то понял, что песня " C'est si bon", которую пел Ив Монтан, написана на основе этого "ЧАЯ ВДВОЁМ". J'ai finalement réalisé que la chanson "C'est si bon", chantée par Yves Montand, est écrite sur la base de ce "THÉ à DEUX".

97 butt hurt self described "virtuosos" gave a thumbs down.

I think I watch this more than any other video on KZbin. Simply fantastic to watch this man conjuring another time in history through his knowledge of this instrument. RIP

He was a magnificent and talented music maker!

Takes me back to childhood holidays by the seaside. It was horrible then and its doubly horrible now.

There has always been something very special about Theatre Organ and Cathedral Organ. I know, the acoustics, but there is more.

Hearing the grand sound of this organ helps us to remember him. Some theatre organ videos shows how the organist would raise and lower the console. As the way KETC movie narrator Jim Kurtcher would put it, Kay McAbee really hasn't gone away. Not for those who loved him.

I miss the days of hearing these great organists at Kitts music stores in malls across the DC MD VA area

Back in the mid-60s, I attended many a Kay McAbee concert at the Rialto Theatre, Joliet, IL. His performances always combined great showmanship with gentle....and often humorous....commentary. My organ teacher at the time, Faye Wheeler, often sang his praises. We miss you, Mr. McAbee.
