Featured review
Jesse Crawford INVENTED 'THEATRE ORGAN TECHNIQUE', the best!!
Since I am an organist, and I happen to favor everything 1930's when it comes to music, and Hollywood film, there is a little bias here. I uploaded the second part of this single feature of which someone only posted the beginning. Then because of one particular snob complaining to YouTube that i was copyright infringing, I took down the video. PLEASE SOMEONE UPLOAD THIS 11 MINUTE CLASSIC! Or ANYTHING JESSE CRAWFORD. Jesse was the greatest, most accomplished, and musically innovative MUSICIAN of all time. A true master, JESSE CRAWFORD 'poet of the organ'.
SADLY, THERE IS ONLY THIS FILM SHORT, AND A FILM SHORT 5 min. 'SHORT' MADE IN THE UK just before WWII.
It is such a shame that no other film footage exists of arguably the greatest musician to ever grace the keys of a pipe organ. Jesse and his then wife are playing Hammond tone wheel organs in this 'AT HOME' feature. Jesse went on to become the HAMMOND ORGAN COMPANY'S lead instructor, arranger/transcriber, and columnist for many music books, including the very informative Hammond organ publication ' LEGATO'. I have a dozen or so of these early 50's Legato 'magazines. Heavy duty paper and excellent song/tune arrangements by Jesse Crawford are just a couple reasons to check them out.
