Ernie Hays is playing Here Comes the King for the baseball gods now. This song and other Ernie Hays songs were such a part of the atmosphere of Cardinals games for pretty much my entire life.
Made my parents by me an organ when I was 14 because of Ernie...and this was one of the first songs I taught myself. It was difficult and a struggle, but I got it. Plus both American and Canadian anthems, Here Comes the King...etc. He was my childhood hero and music's been a huge part of my life ever since. Thanks maestro!
I can still see the old stadium!! Wasn't nothing better than Ernie on the organ, Ozzie at short, mechanical batters eye, Meet me in St. Louie, and the 🦅 flying after a home run.
Playing this in Opening Day. It brings back some sweet memories of attending Cardinals games as a fan in, and even working in, Busch Stadium in the 90s. Thanks for this!

This is the exact recording that played pre game, before warmups at Blues games up until 2008.
I will always remember Mr. Ernie Hays, St. Louis' sports organist for nearly 40 years. RIP Mr. hays, and I'll see you in heaven, when my life ends.
All us fans loved Ernie Hayes and loved when you heard the Organ play
Ernie Hays and Cardinal baseball...Can't think of anything better..Just my opinion.
RIP Mr. Hays. You will always be the best of the best!
Ernie You will be Missed!

How did you get this audio? I would love to have it somehow.
I want it as a ringtone
Tempo is faster than I recall it, but when I slow playback to .75, it's too slow. Dang.
Gets ladies in the mood for what, watching cartoons?
