Re: Brian Sharp - Organist and Pianist.

Brian was one of the most enigmatic characters I ever met. I attended a festival at Sandford park where he gave one of his best performances. His first performance at Bristol was riotous. He disappeared during the interval and was eventually found in the local pub. He was certainly different. He wen...

It is tucked away in a drawer as a memento of days long ago. I always thought the push rod on the end changed the key b...

St Patricks Day

I served my National service in an Irish tank regiment. The RSM was a cavalry fanatic and hated tanks. He was also full of bull so on St Pats Day he had us on parade with a sprig of shamrock attached to our berets. I thought I had put those not pleasant memories behind me. However they have returned...

Re: Windows 10 and recording with Audacity - a BIG PROBLEM!

Hi! Hugh
With my EL700 organ I take the audio out via the headphones socket. Using a splitter plug out from the organ to USB in at PC. I can listen using headphones while recording in audacity. The organ speakers are silenced using this method.

Re: I Left My Heart in San Francisco- January Challenge

Hi!
A great song and well played. Years ago an elderly neighbour asked me to play it for him. At the end he was crying. It turned out it was the city he and his wife visited together before she went on. Sadly he has joined her. Ken S.

Re: Selection of Christmas Music played by Kathryn Holley

Hi! Hugh. Great recordings. Good to listen to. As you know I like to know the ins and outs of everything. So, as she sent you a CD I wondered how she managed to record it. Does the AR have some facility to do that? What type of files did you convert to MP3 ?. Ken S.
