Automatic Music in the Movies
By Nancy Fratti

Hi everybody!

Just saw the video "I'm not Rappaport" with Walter Matthau.
There are 2 or 3 scenes taking place in N.Y.'s Central Park
showing a working carousel WITH a band organ in the center.

I'm not band organ-type oriented so I can't tell you what
kind it was (It looked like a Wurlitzer to me!)....they also
played REAL band organ music in the movie too!

In the credits at the end the listed the four or five tune titles
played and thanked Play-Rite Piano Rolls for the rolls!
