Dies fängt sehr realistisch das Gefühl/den Zeitgeist dieser Ära ein

[@Organplayer1947]

aMAZING!! real music!!!! I'VE PLAYED THESE TUNES ON THE THEATER PIPE ORGAN WHEN THEY WERE ROUTINELY INSTALLED INTO PIZZA PARLORS THROUGHOUT THE USA (AND POSSIBLY THE WORLD). NOW I PLAY FOR PERSONAL ENTERTAINMENT, AND IN RETIREMENT HOMES, ON VIRTUAL THEATER PIPE ORGANS.
