Yes tuning is an issue, the organ has sat in hot warehouses for the last 20 years. Replaced alot of leather but no tuning . Temperture has been in the upper 90's .Everyone has heard cold accordians.
Thanks for this nice Salvatore Adamo song . I think the organ play's good at all. But the recorder is failing ( speed) difference . The same problem also by the Orchestrion Thee time Boogie .I'ts like the voicing is 1/2 actaaf more up ! It's not a blame , better the recorder is failing than the Organs . We know you are doing your best to us ! And we are verry happy to see the ELITE again. Thank for you'r time !!
I love this organ, its great and exciting to hear it again. It is now in better shape that i was told it was thanks to you and your brother. Maybee if you have the time and money you should give it a tune up by finding the frequence at the accordeons. I hope you made more video's because allot of people will be happy to hear the organ.
All of us are verry happy to see this organ again , This organ was verry populair in Belgium and the Netherlands . So please when you have time ? Thanks for the video !
What great arrangement Much better than so many of those modern MIDI arranged music. Long live all these great arrangements and put those new arrangements where they should be at the back of the shelf and not played. The public dont need to have modern music to be impressed just good arrangements
This tune is also on the KDV-cd of the 97-k Mortier formerly of Roger Duerinck in Belgium (now for sale by J.Verbeeck), and is called "Scotch" (on the cd in an arrangement by Marcel Bartier).
He died years ago!
thank you.
Last weekend I talked to Wayne about this organ. I am glad to see that the organ is playing! You have a nice collection over there!
I believe so.
I guess Arthur Prinsen
Nice arrangement of "El Bimbo"!

Very nice organ! And as far as I can hear, playing on his original bellows.
Very nice organ, with a somewhat strange façade. You surely have some great old arrangements with the organ!!!
Sounds like a Eugene Peersman Arrangement.
This sounds like a Marcel Bartier Arrangement.
Hop Scotch Polka.

Alphonse Dufey,he used his first name on the books,lovely arrangement!
This was arranged by Wayne Holton based on recording of Mr.Meijer with minor changes.Piccolo was added built by E. Pluer.
Definitely Tom's arrangement! Unusual piccolo register,Still retains the carillon too!
Nice organ. Sounds like Tom Meijer's arrangement of La Danza to me.
