Cassette for 'Melody in Motion' Carousel
By Matthew Caulfield

The catalog number for your carousel's tape cassette plus the fact that
you spell the word as "carrousel" both point to the likelihood that the
tape of band organ music which you have comes from Carrousel Music,
Chambersburg, PA.

Even if it does not, in the event that your tape player uses a standard
size cassette, Carrousel Music can provide any number of high-quality
cassettes.  Take a look at its web site and on-line catalog:
http://www.carousels.com/cmusic.htm.

The catalog number, if it is in fact a Carrousel Music tape, indicates
that the music comes from a Wurlitzer style 153 band organ (probably
the one owned by Carrousel Music's proprietor, Dr. William Black) and
is the fourth recording from the 153.  According to the firm's catalog,
they are now up to tape #15, I believe.
