Be better if it was buried at the bottom of his garden. Wurlitzer fans would pay good money to see that rise from the ground with Steve playing their favourite tunes for an hour or so. That's Steve and not Stephen of course! 🤣
It’s amazing how as soon as he starts playing, my brain transports me to Blackpool, I could close my eyes and see the beach, seagulls, sticks of rock, trams, you name it. The Wurlitzer is literally the sound of Blackpool. Amazing 🎢
Brilliant to hear, cheerful sound it has. Haven't heard that sound since I last visited the Blackpool Tower ballroom some 12 years ago. Thanks to the owner for showing and playing it to us.
Steve and his husband are two amazing humans with great skills. They have saved the organ from destruction. We have seen it in real life and it sounds breathtaking. Stephen , we are hoping to see coverage of the storms on the West Coast.
Thanks for another very intersting vid. I love the Wurlitzer - it brings back happy memories of holidays in Blackpool when I was a kid. My mum would take us to the Tower Ballroom and reminisce about dances she used to go to in the 1950's. Thanks to Steve for the lovely demo... even though it was digital it sounded great and I'd never heard "Down the Mall" before :) I suppose it's a bit like a synthesizer.
The Blackpool ballroom videos are on you tube ,I've been taking my family there for the last 28 years all the way from Glasgow X hope you see those videos x
Good Evening Steve. Thank you very much for bringing us along to this Gentleman's house and to see such a Beautiful and Stunning Instrument of Sound and the most Beautiful music. This did remind me of the Tower Ballroom, when i watch Strictly Come Dancing one weekend. And of course the very Famous Phantom of the Opera. I really Enjoyed seeing Steve playing such Beautiful music on this Digital Pipe Organ a Wurlitzer. Very much Appreciated to watch and Hear this Gorgeous sound. Thank you Steve. ☺☺☺🤓🤓🤓💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Really impressive for a digital instrument. The sound came over well on the video and could easily be taken as that from a pipe instrument. Congratulations to the builders and thanks Stephen for your video.
Great Video Steve I Enjoyed It I Have Seen Phil Kelsall Many Times Here In The USA I Have Also Seen Robert Wolfe Simon Gledhill And Richard Hills All From The Uk That Digital Organ Is Fantastic Thanks For Posting Steve😊
Always enjoy hearing Stephen Austin. A fabulous Organist. I had the pleasure of visiting Stephen and John's home and was amazed by the sound of their home Electronic Wurlitzer 🤩
What alot of people dont know about the Tower Ballroom Wurltizer is there is literally a full mechanical " orchestra" under the floor that nobody ever sees.Reginald Dixon was the master of playing it back in the day.
@@stephenaustinjohnnunns4854 Ok.My memory is not as it was but I do remember a tv programme showing how it all worked.Incredible enginnering non the less.
Wow what an amazing video Stephen, so amazing what is behind closed doors. Steve you sound very talented, I could sit and listen for ages. Wish you had a TH-cam channel too as its a fascinating instrument. Well Done both
As an engineer/musician/producer, I have to say that I've never been a huge fan of the Wurlitzer sound, but I'm very impressed with what Steve has done. A labour of love and a true testament to dedication. Beautiful instrument. Although, stick to the day job Stephen! lol. Great video.
Yes Steven, they have a Wurlitzer organ in Pollokshawa Hall and also there is one at Sommerlee museum in Coatbridge too. You should come up to see them both.
Thank you very much Stephen for featuring Steve and his beautiful Wurlitzer organ. The sound is magical! Another channel featured the largest pipe organ in the UK 🇬🇧 which is in Birmingham. Takes you back to another era.
I think this might be the most fascinating video you've ever posted Steve - a huge Wurlitzer in an upstairs bedroom. Incredible! 😄 Can I make a bold suggestion? You should have one of this talented gentleman's tune as the channel's lead in for the videos...
I loved this.. I’ve lived in Blackpool since I was 6.. I’m 39 now and as soon as he started playing it just flooded back memories of being a child and listening to the Whirlitzer in the tower… it is magical and it’s great of you for sharing this…
Thanks stephen for another great video, this one more special to me as my dad loved the wurlitzer organ and he had many cd's of that music his favorite being Reginald Dixon. Mum and dad used to go dancing in the tower ballroom. So watching this brought back special memories, thankyou😊😊
Steve Austin... took me back to my six Millon Dollar Man days. Great playing Sir. What an amazing instrument. I heard the Wurlitzer in Blackpool Ballroom as a kid. The great Reginal Dixon was playing which he did for 50 years or so I heard him in the 60s ❤
What a treat Stephen ! Thank you so much for this great video. It brought back memories of my childhood listening on the wireless to Reginald Dixon from the Tower Ballroom in the 1950s. An amazing achievement to rebuild a digital version of this instrument.
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always that is an amazing looking wurlitzer and what a lovely gentleman too love the sound of them love listening to the ones in the tower ballroom fantastic have a great evening xx
Absolutely brilliant. This is one digital instrument that I am very much in favour of. The Wurlitzer has many many fans, around the world and it's easy to see why. A very unique sound, and most evocative. I don't think we have heard the last of this wonderfully versatile instrument, by any means. Please keep us updated on any future plans that your host might have.
Yes Stephen that was great Very enjoyable and interesting Any chance Steve could give us a longer show Amazing how they built it all from scratch after finding an old carcass to renovate A Conacher cinema organ was in Rotherham Odeon I remember it coming up through the floor during the intermission while we went for our ice cream As a kid in 60’s it always fascinated me It was taken out and rebuilt at an organ museum somewhere up north Just forgot where Happy days Thank you for another incredible episode 👍👍👍👍
What a remarkable find, and what a fabulous sound, that took me back to the “Good Old Days” the very talented gentleman is phenomenal, thank you 🙏 Stephan for a wonderful treat 🤗
In the UK, although we had a lot of Wurlitzers imported, our most common cinema organs were Comptons. A few were also made by Christie, an offshoot of a company that built church organs. One feature that our organs had, which Wurlitzers weren't originally built with, was a light up surround round the console, with coloured bulbs inside, which gave a colour change effect, decades before RGB lighting.
brought up on Reggie... 'Tiger Rag' sounds awesome in the tower ballroom. I was taught to play the organ and have since forgot most of it, but, my tutor said 'if it doesn't look like the flight control deck of the space shuttle, it's going to be boring'. he wasnt wrong! now I collect 'keyboards that tick the right boxes' and did for a long time, listen to 'the organist entertains' and have sat through many many organ recitals. there's just something about the wurlie in the tower ballroom though that has a sense of awe about it I can't define. yes, sat in on a tea dance in the ballroom just to hear the organ. I'm incurable. met Nigel Ogden twice - he hasn't disappointed!! he's done a spell in Blackpool too. yup, I have been something of an organ nut in the past.
Reginald played that organ in a very distinct way- sometimes almost 2 tunes at once - counterpoint? He and Sidney Torch are my favourite cinema organists.
Excellent enlightening vlog Stephen ..... What a wonderful instrument ! Thanks to Steve & John for their time, endeavour & talent resulting in the creation of this magnificent application of science within the arts.🎼🎵🎶👏😎
Wowser, I don't know how anyone ever learns to play something with that many keys, knobs, pedals, and switches, it's mind boggling and inspiring at the same time, must take years and years to master. ❤
Absolutely beautiful reproduction. My dad was a fan of the wurlitzer n a radio programme called the oragnists entertains, he would have loved to see this. Beautiful work
I love the sound of a Wurlitzer. The music from them is very nostalgic and special. Well done on these guys, recreating a fantastic and rare piece of musical history. He should have played 'The Birdie Song' so you could dance Stephen!
Thank you for an interesting video Stephen and thanks to Steve for letting you video it. Nothing like a Wurlitzer sound it's so unique and lovely to hear, totally different from anything else but always recognisable.😊😊😊
That is a fabulous instrument and the guys have done very well in restoration. Digital is now part of the music scene, I play both piano and organ and my piano is digital. There are, of course, those who maintain 'proper organs have pipes' not an argument I wish to be involved with. Digital has helped us own and enjoy instruments we otherwise could either never afforded or have the space for. I am drooling with envy.
Yes Steve it was just like being in Blackpool tower it was just like being in the tower ball room in Blackpool what a beautiful organ thanks for sharing another very interesting video 👵🏻
Brings back very happy memories the sound of the Wurlitzer, sat with my mum and dad as a kid in the 80's eating fish and chips on a nice summers day outside Heskeths chippy on the corner near goldbergs/houndhill shopping centre with the Wurlitzer playing away, the sound is magical, thankyou Stephen taking me on a very happy trip down memory lane
Thank you Stephen for bringing us this lovely video and a big thanks to Steve Austin for allowing you to make this video. I would love that in my house. I do have a Rowland organ exactly the same as the one in The Blackpool Tower . My organ has a digital box too which has all the sampled sounds of the Blackpool Tower Wurlitzer
Brilliant video! Brings back a lot of memories, especially when i use to buy the illuminations vhs and in the background wurlitzer played all the way through.
6:48 Hi Stephen really enjoyed this video what an amazing find a Wurlitzer in some ones bedroom how on earth did they build it what a masterpiece it's not something you expect to hear coming from your next door neighbours is it ❤❤
Hat's off to the two of them that made it and what an excellent find , tell you what though, you'd need to get in with your neighbours with that playing as it must be so so loud. Although I'm sure the room is sound proofed. Well done on finding it Stephen really fantastic and enjoyed it , amazing it sounds so good 👍
The computer has digital samples of every note from a real Wurlitzer organ which is why it sounds exactly the same as a pipe instrument. It is possibly a Hauptwerk system. If you wanted, it could be programmed with any type of organ, be it church, cathedral, concert hall from any part of the world. It's an awesome system!
Hi Stephen we also have a Compton wurlitzer at Stockport plaza, it rises from the floor been here from the 30s maybe earlier, Stockport plaza is very famous for many reasons including film and TV most recently peaky blinders.
Strictly speaking, Compton and Wurlitzer are different companies, but I imagine a lot of people call all cinema organs Wurlitzers. Comptons were the most numerous in the UK, and had a feature that Wurlitzers never originally had - the light up surround to the console, that changes colour.
Its good to hear some happy music during these current storms. That is indeed a superb Wurlitzer.😀😀
Be better if it was buried at the bottom of his garden. Wurlitzer fans would pay good money to see that rise from the ground with Steve playing their favourite tunes for an hour or so. That's Steve and not Stephen of course! 🤣
It’s amazing how as soon as he starts playing, my brain transports me to Blackpool, I could close my eyes and see the beach, seagulls, sticks of rock, trams, you name it. The Wurlitzer is literally the sound of Blackpool. Amazing 🎢

Super.
The Tremulant is what makes the Wurlitzer special, in Tamworth the St Edith’s Church organ has a tremulant similar to a Wurlitzer.

Stephen that Wurlitzer was amazing, "It's Keying Off in Blackpool" Lol 👍👍😁😎
I used to have piano lesson with Stephen and John decades ago. They were (ARE) amazing!
Always enjoy hearing Stephen Austin. A fabulous Organist. I had the pleasure of visiting Stephen and John's home and was amazed by the sound of their home Electronic Wurlitzer 🤩
Glad you enjoyed it
I remember Colin from Seaside visited this man a couple of years ago and filmed him , but it was good to hear him play again .
What alot of people dont know about the Tower Ballroom Wurltizer is there is literally a full mechanical " orchestra" under the floor that nobody ever sees.Reginald Dixon was the master of playing it back in the day.
Rimmer (Red Dwarf) was a huge fan of Reg Dixon!
All organ pipes and glockenspiel, Xylophone, Drums, cymbals etc., are actually in two Chambers ABOVE the stage...behind the proscenium arch .

Wow what a find that was the music was awesome.Thank you for sharing 😁
What an amazing find. Well done, Steve 👏👏👏
Amazing that,,,Takes me back to being a kid,,,,Mum and dad taking me to the Blackpool Tower in the 60s,,, Thanks Steven ❤👍🌹
Fantastic, what a lovely vlog, xx
Thanks so much! 😊
I remember those two. They used to service the organ at my local music shop.
That’s what you call a labour of love.
Fantastic.
Fantastic, Stephen🎹 👏
That was absolutely fabulous and as you say Stephen the sound is magical.
Yes Steven, they have a Wurlitzer organ in Pollokshawa Hall and also there is one at Sommerlee museum in Coatbridge too. You should come up to see them both.
I should love to ...at some time in the future.
Thank you very much Stephen for featuring Steve and his beautiful Wurlitzer organ. The sound is magical! Another channel featured the largest pipe organ in the UK 🇬🇧 which is in Birmingham. Takes you back to another era.
I think this might be the most fascinating video you've ever posted Steve - a huge Wurlitzer in an upstairs bedroom. Incredible! 😄
Can I make a bold suggestion? You should have one of this talented gentleman's tune as the channel's lead in for the videos...
Stephen and John are very good friends and I have visited to hear there home Wurlitzer. Its amazing
That sound takes me right back to listening to Raymond Wallbank on the North pier when I was a kid... Thank you
I loved this.. I’ve lived in Blackpool since I was 6.. I’m 39 now and as soon as he started playing it just flooded back memories of being a child and listening to the Whirlitzer in the tower… it is magical and it’s great of you for sharing this…

Thanks stephen for another great video, this one more special to me as my dad loved the wurlitzer organ and he had many cd's of that music his favorite being Reginald Dixon. Mum and dad used to go dancing in the tower ballroom. So watching this brought back special memories, thankyou😊😊
I remember as a young lad the Wurlitzer at a ABC cinema that came up from under the floor, brilliant
Steve Austin the 6 million dollar man .lol😂
WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY WE CAN REBUILD HIM 🎭
Steve Austin... took me back to my six Millon Dollar Man days. Great playing Sir. What an amazing instrument. I heard the Wurlitzer in Blackpool Ballroom as a kid. The great Reginal Dixon was playing which he did for 50 years or so I heard him in the 60s ❤
A wonderful segment Stephen. What a find! A Wurlitzer built with love. Thank you.
What a treat Stephen ! Thank you so much for this great video. It brought back memories of my childhood listening on the wireless to Reginald Dixon from the Tower Ballroom in the 1950s. An amazing achievement to rebuild a digital version of this instrument.
Magic. I think of beach, sunshine and strolling down a promenade somewhere with an ice cream in my hand when I hear music from a Wurlitzer.
Thanks Stephen it's amazing how you source all the avenues for your vlog that was brilliant
Wow! Absolutely fantastic 👏
That’s right up my street listening to that fabulous instrument Stephen, great video.
Glad you enjoyed it Nigel
Fabulous takes me back to the good old days in Blackpool Tower thank you stephen that's cheered me up no end

Absolutely fascinating Stephen. Great video. Wow.
Love the “Mighty Wurlitzer”, as it’s called here in Cincinnati OH. There’s nothing like the marvelous sound. Thanks Stephen.

Thanks to Steve & John for their time, endeavour & talent resulting in the creation of this magnificent application of science within the arts.🎼🎵🎶👏😎
Now that's a total work Of art , I can't get my head around all those keys ! Who had the vision for that !?!? And as for the originals 😲,,, 🏴👍
That video brings back some memories … congratulations to Steve … he was brilliant … 🎶🔆🎶🔆
Wow Stephen what an amazing video! You really are spoiling us now. That organ sounds just like the real thing! Must take a lot of know how to play it.
I thought you might ask for Steve to play us out!? He should decorate that bedroom in Art Deco style and shell style wall lamps!🧐👍
What a treat, I could listen to Steve play all day! Thanks for this Stephen!
Wowser, I don't know how anyone ever learns to play something with that many keys, knobs, pedals, and switches, it's mind boggling and inspiring at the same time, must take years and years to master. ❤
