Re: Best way to view Embedded Videos on this Forum

Thanks for posting this information Hugh. Can't say I understand it all but it's certainly a reference for when I next post a you tube video. :D

Re: Ring Light

I'd never heard of a ring light and suspected I'd have to enquire at Anne Summers for details. Lo and behold Argos sell them. :D :D :D

Re: Chester-le-Street a short video, and some great music

Some excellent photos there Brian. Drove to Chester le Street this morning as my son lives there. This shows just how much the place has changed. When I was a bairn it seemed like miles away. Our mams used to arrange a bus trip for us to spend the day in Chester from Sunderland. Walk around the Frid...

Re: September Challenge A Suggestion from OZ.

I'm pretty sure I have a version of this in my music books. I'll try to find it tomorrow and send it to you. I use the Ethereal style.

Re: What are Registration Memories, and how are they used?

Hi All I've just come across this demonstration of how a professional would set up his registrations for a show using a Lowrey organ. I was particularly impressed over how he set up the timpani drum roll, I'll definitely use that. Might be worth a listen. It won't tell you how to set up a registrati...

Re: Now this does sound nice

Hi Brian I love watching the Lowrey demonstrations on YouTube. This is right up my street. Loved the organ voices from 22 minutes. Not that keen on the new styles though. How much are these 13 -14 thousand I suppose. You can arrange a home demonstration of this model. Can you imagine having this del...

Re: What are Registration Memories, and how are they used?

Hi Hugh That's a great explanation. They're a must for all players. I wish you could save a registration by speaking to the keyboard though, it would be much easier. "OK keyboard, save this setup in Bank 5 Mack The Knife". Much better than pressing buttons and renaming don't you think. It'...

Re: Changing rhythm backings in a piece

Interesting observation Hugh.

Well now instead of sitting and thinking "what shall I play" it's "lets mess around with the rythms and see what comes out".

All good fun.

Re: Blackpool

Hi Fred

Can't believe the lack of information regarding the Tower Organ Concerts. One site shows there is a Wurlitzer concert on September 9th but no more information.

I think you'll have to ring them and hopefully there will be a human being at the other end of the phone.

Good luck.

Re: What are you listening to Now ? (3)

Brilliant track and one I tend to play quite often. I use a style from the Country section Mod Bluegrass. (PSR S770) I change the voices to harmonica and a guitar voice. Just don't tell anybody it's from the country section else Alan Hull will haunt me! :shock:

A change of genre here. I found this group a few years ago on YouTube. They're truly amazing. They won't suit everyone's taste but they're on the USB in my car.

Hi Brian

It's a long time since I've listened to Sky. Brilliant Toccata. I have the classical version stored in the Yamaha.

Hocus Pocus is lesser know than Sylvia but just as good in my eyes (or ears).

What a way to spend a Friday evening, brilliant music and a pint of John Smiths.
