if your wondering why i used duran duran view to a kill it was the first night i worked that was the film

The organ audio is the organ at St Mary's portsea newly restored walker organ by Nicholson and Co of Worcester. I felt this piece suited this video as both being walker organs. I can recommend St Mary's portsea organ a visit worth while when you hear how they have reverted the pitch back to its victorian style and when you see the new console it's more comfortable to play and you can get an idea of how the organ should sound just by looking at the console

Thanks for this post. Very impressed by the organ and your performance.

You guys are on the ball yes it Anton Darby who does a wonderful Sunday show on victory online Sunday 12 till 2pm

I HAVE THE CLOSEDOWN IN 1986

I'm afraid I've not heard of Lancing College. Perhaps in the UK?

the organ piece is David N Johnson Trumpet tune

for those who want to know the organ piece is Reginald Porter Brown Tuba tune

The track is Earthmate from the new Julia Fordham Album Called Earthmate. Julia did perform this live along with songs from her previous albums. She is such a lovely person to talk to and I got to meet her after the concert. The story behind this song is so amazing. Thank you Julia for a wonderful evening. Blessings to you

Saw her live Portsmouth guildhall Friday evening she was awesome and sung this song. I was privileged to meet Julia at the end and a lot of radio victory people were there it was a wonderful evening. I certainly recommend seeing Julia live.

I’ve had the pleasure of playing this pipe organ, it’s first class!

be careful this may be hurtful to the ears if your not used to hearing this sort of thing. as you can see i was stood right under the organ

you always remembered your first Babycham with a cherry on a cocktail stick or even a little umbrella, such great memories and the bubbles going up your nose.

You forgot Herbert Sumsion.

The Movie was released in cinema's 2023 and is available on dvd through Amazon, the songs in the movie are great but due to copyright i couldn't use them

Didnt she sing some ads for Victory?

Lest we forget

Sounds wonderful.

Oh What fool's we Mortals are!

They shall not grow old nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them.

'lest we forget' and 'the few' shall be remembered forever and ever

the song is Arnold Gutbucket who has Radio Victory connections its called Portsmouth Tea song

he was the brains behind soul bossa nova which was used in the Austin Powers Movies it was an instrumental track. I chose the Michael Jackson track because of the words and especially at the end of the song I'll Never let you part, for your always in my heart. here is the link for Soul Bossa Nova by Quincy jones also check out his song I'll be good to you its amazing th-cam.com/video/SaCiaQR8x4c/w-d-xo.html ( Link for soul bossa nova) th-cam.com/video/-nRcMBS4Y2U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=llIwBlqdtO6SqKuO (link for song I'll be good to you)

who remembers the name of Hong Kong Phooey's cat and what was the name of the telephone operator

Yes 😅

at 55 seconds i realised when taking the photos the lady with the pink hair is Heather James who was on Express FM a while ago. Another song from Calafornia dreams Called Mama said some episodes of the series are on you tube.

the audio track is from a series a while back callled Calafornia dreams about a high school band and a lot of thier songs made it to cd this one is called Handle it with care. it was an American tv show but aired in the uk such great songs though.

our thoughts and prayers go out to all who fought so bravely and also we remember those who sadly didnt return and those who sadly lost thier lives. for all of these brave people we are truely grateful.

I am sure you will recognise the audio track as Highland Cathedral pipes & drums of the Scots Guards. if you watch the series train truckers there is an episode where Royal Highland Fuselier is transported to another railway on loan for a gala day event.

Sounds like the first Power FM package

Chris Carnegy by any chance?

Can you name the south coast broadcasting legend who got this station on the air. He was also breakfast presenter and chief engineer. another clue he was a big part of a well known Portsmouth radio station during its time on air.

with rememberance day approaching its great to remember people including Colin who fought so bravely for our country. it makes you proud to be British Blessings & prayers to all who fought so bravely.

The Font in this church was used to Baptise Charles Dickens who was Born in Portsmouth.

I wasn’t expecting to wake up today and find you had made this. Thank you very much for your support. And I love the choice of music.

It wasnt the authentic operation fictious names used And deviated away from the true events

A sleeping giant indeed and a good piece to illustrate some of its strengths, in this case the reeds! It is another great part of our culture in danger of being forgotten, I hope you continue to highlight these treasures. I wonder where the recording came from and who is playing, cannot find it on You tube at a quick glance. Maybe someone, the local council for instance, could incorporate this instrument into a programme of the arts, it would be good to see it brought back to life once it has been restored.

I couldn't resist tuba tune by Norman Cocker. sadly the Guildhall organ is not in a very playable state and was only used once a year for Graduation. its not noticeable that an organ is there as the pipes sit 30ft above the stage and the sound comes through a grill and the console is moveable and only plugs in on one place on the stage. it has a good range of stops and i believe it is a compton just like Southampton Guildhall, but that has two consoles

I chose this piece for our wedding 35 years ago, and first heard it at a friend's wedding well before that! This rendition captures the beauty and quiet majesty of Handel's music.

the organ you hear on the audio is the new restored St Mary's Portsea not far from this church

Hi, Thanks for this. Could you add some information? Organ nuts like myself like to know the stop list, the builder, and any history about the organ if possible. Thanks for a nice entry.

The music is this organ and tuba tune by Reginald Porter Borwn

1998 - organ said to be almost unplayable as there has been no organist there for some years; 2004 - now playing reasonably well, however, all the reeds are pinned off, preventing use, although the pipework is still there. It makes a very nice full sound in the building

Bravo !!!
