I never understood the comment made by keyboard players, � I hate organs�. I feel it should be, �I hate the way people make them sound�.

THOUGHTS FROM 1980�S AND 90�S
1- Wasn�t the arranger keyboard birth from the organ. Like they took one set of keys and created an arranger keyboard. I own a basic Wersi organ, it was made so that the keyboard could be detached from the wooden stand. I used it on a job.

2- After attending the concerts in Orlando, Florida for many years, and hearing the Wersi organ played by the fantastic team of Wersi players I feel in love, I had to have one. I bought the first keyboard they made. The CD of Rick Annonie (Spelling) and the keyboard was the best I have heard right up to today. (opinion) A few years later I bought a used Delta 500 with separate speakers � fantastic. I sold it 2 years later. Why? Lack of ability/talent, too much instrument for me.

3- I listened to an organ demonstration in a nearby music store; I hated it, they played nothing but organ sounds. What I had been listening to was Big Band. In a concert Cooper and Rick used two Wersi organs to play Big Band; My dad who was a musician and I were amazed � close your eyes and it was as real as it can get. I must add that Hector Oliveri (Spelling) was the best organ player I have ever heard for classical and Jazz
