    Reminds me of the “Mighty” Morton organ at the Ohio Theater in Columbus. Always a treat to hear these nearly-lost musical instruments.

      This one and the New Orleans Saenger theatre RM were considered to be unofficial Wonder Morton’s for their larger specs. Of course your feelings on why this sounds like the Ohio Morton is justified mainly because of the generous acoustic both instruments enjoy.

    Closing song: "Roller Coaster." "What's My Line" theme song for the end of each show. Who knew! Thank you, Mark Herman, for breathing life into the king of instruments.

    I always love hearing this organ . . I worked on the Solana Theater relocation / installation of the core of this instrument for Organ Power Pizza many years ago, and it was always my favorite of all of the instruments we had, maybe with the exception of the Style D in the back at Pacific Beach.
    The Morton ensemble was always light years ahead of a Wurlitzer . .
    Beautifully played Mark - I think she really likes you . .

    Interesting Mashup

  • @TurtleFL
    @TurtleFL 2 роки тому +3

    His version of Roller Coaster is better than George Wright's. With Wright you got a tight version of the song that showed off all speed and thrill, but Herman takes you through every part of the ride, including the ramp-ups, the braking, and the final dive at the end followed by the clatter into the platform debarking. It really puts you there.

    • @TurtleFL
      @TurtleFL 2 роки тому +1

      I also liked the calliope section at the beginning as Herman interpreted it... the change of chords from major to death metal dissonance effectively depicts the sick dread that suddenly hits as you realize the ride you just got on might not be your cup of tea.... and it's too late lol

    Mark, excellent playing and an extremely enjoyable playlist. What was the name of the solo piano piece right before you let loose on the Morton?
    Also, this has to be one of the most enjoyable instruments to listen to. Definitely has it's own unique voice and character. Love that 16' Tuba Profunda on the pedal, really gives an incredible growl.
