YouTube Is My Go To Channel

We've been watching dozens of free movies and a bunch of other stuff since network TV mostly sucks.
AND..
I came across these you might enjoy. We sure did.

Here's a Johnny Carson Classic...

A bit of a side story. When my wife worked at Wanamaker her boss was married to a guy who could be 100% mistaken for being Dom. We went out to a downtown Allentown bar and the bartender gave us all free drinks and swore he's keep it on the down low Dom was in his bar. We tried to explain but he wasn't buying. Then again neither were we that night :-)


These two jokers!



One hellva' large organ in Chicago.




The "Wanamaker Organ" in Phila.- Largest in the world with 28,750 pipes.

A National Historic Landmark it's valued in excess of $71 million dollars.
Another side story. When I was young I had the opportunity to take a peek around the St. Paul Church pipe organ on S. 8th St. Allentown. Course nothing as large as this, but still a magnificently large instrument. No speakers could ever move the amount of air St. Paul's twin blowers could produce through the church's pipes to resonate the air such as they.

Although I had six years of organ lessons I couldn't even dream the amount of multitasking required to play one of these colossal instruments One needs, 10 fingers, both legs and still peel your eyes on the three staffs printed on the sheet music. My brain was never wired that way. So I really appreciate what kind of brain it takes in someone's head to do all that while still being able to make all the stop changes required.

Imagine too all the money and skills required to maintain such a behemoth. Air pressures have to be properly regulated to all pipes to ensure equal volume from each. Pitches properly tuned in order not to sound like a cacophony of noise. Too much/too little air pressure, humidity or improper temperature is also factor. Wow.. just wow!
