   Was this done recently? Sounds like they fixed the Bass Drum head…sounded like it had a hole in it when I was there in March for the concert.

   I played it at a practice session on Sept. 21, 2008. Recorded with an Edirol R-09HR. I’m not sure about the drum, was just having a fun time with the Wurlitzer.

   Wow- I commented on “Pietro’s Return”… I didn’t even think to look at this or your other videos- dang… I could imagine what
   “Return” would sound like on the Senate Wurly… beautiful. Now I feel really stupid
   after the comment I left at “Return”- you are
   already quite an accomplished musician, and
   quite familiar with the theatre organ.

   I am humbled.
