Mr. Sandman: Theatre Organ

[@MattGerhard]

Love the Blackpool influence.

[@danthemusicman2489]

My pleasure! It is my most favored style to play on a theatre organ, although my place of residence is quite far from the British Isles. Thanks for watching!

[@jamessimmons7480]

SPOOKY SOUNDING!!!!

[@pilotusa]

Outstanding! I love the style.

[@danthemusicman2489]

Thank you very much! Playing with this sort of style(otherwise known as "blackpool style") is one of my upmost favorites to perform! Thanks for watching!

[@lukejackson75]

You are my favorite organist

[@EElgar1857]

A fine job, Dan!

[@danthemusicman2489]

Thanks for watching!

[@andyhallcawh4133]

Excellent playing Daniel :)

[@davef.2329]

Nice playing, Dan. That organ is in a High School???!!? Good heavens! I guess we missed the bus around here when they were building schools...

[@danthemusicman2489]

Correct! I dearly wish that I attended this high school! I would stay for hours after closure and play this organ! Thanks for watching!

[@mrnasty02106]

Stupid idea! Who TF would do this?! Thank God I went to all 1950s-60s era schools. Oldies >>>> opera, any day.

great job....there is the matter of the well known intro to the song..... which I believe was made popular by the chordettes...key of Bflat....bflat, d f a g f d bflat c eflat g bflat a...(x2)......(one organist to another)...that is an amazing instrument and you are tops....fun video

[@danthemusicman2489]

You are right! Unfortunately, I was unable to learn the intro to the song, as with most songs I learn, I skip right to the melody, which I am improving. I'm glad you enjoyed the song! Thanks for watching!

The "Blackpool" style is underappreciated here on this side of the pond 😂 but very refreshing. I've heard the Dickinson Kimball many times but never like this.

[@ВладимирТуриков]

Не впечатляет, какое-то дергание

[@mariemccann5895]

A very screechy instrument. I guess it is not in prime health or of good quality.

[@OrganMusicYT]

Actually, it's a highly regarded instrument by some of the very best theatre organists playing today. It's also kept in tip-top condition.

[@OrganMusicYT]

@@AncientRe yet you seem to be the only one with the issue.

[@mrnasty02106]

It really is. Mr. Sandman isn't supposed to sound like: sci-fi (which is bulls**t), opera (don't get me started on that gibberish), or heavy metal (full, all stops pressed, if I'm not mistaken). Use the mallet stops (I hate those that must make every piece, overly-elaborate). KISS.
