    It makes me miss 'The Organist Entertains' on Tuesday evenings on BBC Radio 2.

    7:16 time to 7:33 is amazing. I can't believe this sound here! Impeccable!

    I remember back in the 70s David Shepherd doing a concert at the Marsden Green Hospital on the 3/10 Compton.

    As a child learning the organ I used to hate the Theatre organ as all I knew was the Blackpool sound. Then I discovered Simon Gledhill, it transformed my view of these magnificent instruments. I love Simons style, his chordal instincts are just a joy to listen to. Thank you.

    In my very humble opinion, does it get any better? Nah. Been listening to Simon since he was 16 (at the 3J’s in Gomersal destroyed in a fire in the 80’s.). Can’t wait for your return to Saltaire. Thanks again. H

    Quite superb, Simon ! A performance full of nuance - harmonic, rhythmic and in registration......If Robert Farnon had played the theatre organ ! Thanks for showing off one of my very favourite instruments in such impeccable style.

    I never tire of watching this exceptional pairing of artist and instrument! Many thanks to all involved bringing this to an attentive audience! Today I paired my Chromebook to my Hifi with Bluetooth and the sound was amazing....

    It's very jarring to see a beautiful 4 manual Compton in what looks like a small home studio. It sounds wonderful! I would like to see the audio set up!

    Thank you, Simon. Very well played and recorded. Sounds very fine sitting at my desk in Dallas TX. We met years ago when you played in Wichita, Kansas. I gave you a ride following the after-concert reception. Hope to hear you play there again when things return to normal.

    Thank You for doing this Simon, just Great! Aaand, Thank You David for "keeping the lights on" for Simon and sharing your wonderful instrument with us. Keep at it, stay safe; all the very best! Wish I could hear you play these on the Oakland Paramount Wurlitzer, in that room, in person!

    I first fell in love with Simon’s playing after hearing a recording of I Feel A Song/Song In My Heart a few years ago. I think he recorded it at the Christie organ in the Walthamstow Granada? This should be his signature tune if it isn’t already, superbly played!

    Bravo Simon, I have so enjoyed the duets you did with this beautiful instrument and Richard Hills on the piano. A question about the makeup of the the divisions and chambers. It appears there is only one expression pedal so wondering if it is all one chamber?
    Look forward to more , if possible on this beauty.

    They talk about THE MIGHTY WURLITZERS but I reckon that the Compton Organs especially with the Mellotone are a far superior sounding organ.

    A mate of my knows Simon. He works as a manager in an insurance company. Not sure how he gets the time to play so much. It must be a busy life..
