From CHRISTUS VINCIT PODCASTING, Podcast #5 (just uploaded today):
Dedicated to organs (in a liturgical setting) this time, instead of hymns:
The Good: any well-maintained, well-played, pipe organ
The Bad: any old electronic toaster organ (Hammond comes to mind)
The Ugly: a Hammond so fried you can cook a full-course breakfast on it for you and your choir
Happy Epiphany!

Don't forget the Conns either.
ReplyDeleteOMG - I've seen only one Lowrey anywhere - this one in a church. What a ****box. Eventually it got replaced by an old Wurlitzer (no prize either, but a little bit better). Now they smartened up, and put a decent digital (Rodgers or Galanti - I can't remember) in their new church.
ReplyDeleteI did do ONE funeral parlor service - ever. That one had an old Hammond B3 (with LEGS, yes, LEGS!). The organ was halfway up a flight of stairs. Thank God for a speaker near me so I could hear what was going on in the parlor, because I couldn't see squat in the parlor.
Peace,

Actually, Matthew...
ReplyDeleteI did mention Lowrey in the podcast, believe it or not. Just forgot to put it in this blog's post.
