Attachment thumbnail Cheers, Doran Wittelsbach [ The description says "Heilbuth built pipe organs out of various bits [ and pieces. He composed original waltzes and polkas for his organs, [ which played his tunes via paper rolls. Here, we see his band organ [ (orchestrion) playing his arrangements of 'Minuit Polka' Op.168 (Emil [ Waldteufel) and 'Never On A Sunday' (Manos Hadjidakis, Billy Towne). [ Recorded by me in Heilbuth's San Francisco home, March 19, 1994." [ [ More about organist Robert Heilbuth and his compositions at [ http://community.livejournal.com/outsider_music/103334.html#cutid1 [ and http://community.livejournal.com/barbary_club/36515.html?#cutid1 [ [ MMDigest articles about this eccentric pipe organ builder are [ indexed at http://mmd.foxtail.com/Archives/KWIC/H/heilbuth.html [ [ -- Robbie
