It is wonderful to see the boldness of a young girl who wishes to be caught up in the magic of music and dance, if even alone at the beginning. The gentleman who came to her assistance was very gallant, a disappearing trait in our time. Congratulations to both of them for this lesson. As always the organists at the Ballroom, provide music to lift the spirits, whether listening or dancing, and for those of us far away on the internet. Thanks!
Saw Chris. John B, Mark Allen And Phil at the tower last week, my first visit since 2010. Really enjoyed listening to all of them. But I must say that Chris on the Roland was superb. He has turned the Roland into something extremely versatile and entertaining. Many thanks to all of you.
Lovely memory of visiting tnis great ballroom over the weekend Sept 2018 in the feelgood enviroment of this fascinating town of Blackpool Lovely sounds
When I think back to when they announced a new organist at the Tower to replace Ernest Broadbent, I first thought after hearing him Phil Kelsall ,I don't think he will last? He was then playing an ABBA medley ,and forty odd years later, the said organist is still there and still likes to play an ABBA medley! Phil was definitely the man for the job,I wonder who will try to fill his shoes when he hands over the console??
It’s amazing to see the pride that Blackpool have for their ball rooms and for that fantastic sounding Wurlitzer Organ. It’s a shame that Wolverhampton City Council did not take a leaf out of your book when the left wing Labour council decided to scrap the fantastic Compton organ at our Civic Hall. Shame on you Wolverhampton City Council, Perhaps you should watch this video to see why the organ was so important to keep.
[Q] At 47-seconds into this video we see two chandeliers hanging over the uppermost balcony. Today those chandeliers are missing although the wall fittings they hung from remain. Where did they go? That observation aside, great videos on your channel. More please!

o how i miss it , heavenly music
It's nice to hear the whruitzer playing ring of bright water as sung by Val doonican in the film of the same name
It's the Roland organ not the Wurlitzer playing that tune
@@wersiorgan I'm sorry I didn't know it was the Roland since the camera at that time was aimed at the dance floor.

It's the Roland Organ
Il aurait mieux valu mettre l'accent sur le jeu de l'organiste, plutôt que de filmer une bande de bobos
