Wurlitzer 165 Music Arranged by Rich Olsen
By Matthew Caulfield

Rich Olsen has finished arranging for me a style 165 "Big Band" roll,
and it is now at Play-Rite waiting for production.  I hope we get our
copy for Seabreeze Park by opening day, which is May 22, 2010.

I am not exactly advertising the roll here, but I am so impressed by
Rich's arrangement of "In The Mood" that I would like to share it with
everyone who enjoys mechanical music, whether or not you have a band
organ playing Style 165 music rolls.

Please go to this page of my web site http://wurlitzer-rolls.com/index6.html 
and scroll down to roll 6845, where you can hear an MP-3 audio file of
Rich's arrangement.  I'd love to hear your comments.

 [ I listened to all three offerings and I think they're great.
 [ I'd call the style an American cousin of the Dutch Street Organ
 [ or Café Organ arranging styles.  -- Robbie
