4.0 out of 5 stars Saluting the Wurlitzer 165, December 30, 2004
It's a toughie reviewing this album - I don't know quite how to rate it for the everyday listener, seeing as how band organ music is definitely an acquired taste. However, that said, if you happen to be a band organ nut, you're in for a treat with this CD. It's about as good as it gets.

Kudos to Klavier records for making a recording of this wonderful Wurlitzer 165 band organ - it sounds like a dream, and has transferred relatively well to CD format. My only complaint is that the glockenspiel sounds rather abrasive, and gets really grating when recorded onto a cassette tape. Otherwise, the album is pristine.

The tunes featured are all classic band organ offerings, and the rolls used are in splendid shape. The organ's mechanism performs beautifully - whatever "prominent Midwestern collection", as the liner notes read, it comes from is taking very good care of it.

Basically, this, alongside its sister album "Catch Another Brass Ring", stands as an ideal representation of what a Wurlitzer 165 should sound like. Band organ lovers will adore it. The average Joe? Hard to say...but it's certainly worth a try.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Music and Great Sound, April 19, 2008
By Anthony R. Tempesta (Burke, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of the best band organ CDs I've found -- great selection of songs and the sound quality is just right. Close your eyes and you can picture yourself riding on your favorite carousel of your childhood!

4.0 out of 5 stars For certain ambient moods....
Play this CD on a system in another room, at low volume, for that ineffable feeling that there's a tumble-down old-fashioned trolley park just over the next hill.

4.0 out of 5 stars The happiest music on earth!
This is the perfect antidote for the blues! It is absolutely impossible to feel down once you begin listening to this CD! I use it to give me a lift whenever I need it. Read more
