Hi Joe,

Had two piano lessons from a spinster at the age of 16, because we had an old piano in the parlor that no one to play it. After the third lesson, I was given the decision. It was.....practice scales.......or chase girls. At that age you know my decision.

Had a lot of fun with the latter but now wish I would have combined the two.

Like Chuck, I also entered the Air Force and it was the best thing I did in my life, with one exception. I found and married a wonderful girl and will be celebrating our 58th this year.

Started out with a Hammond Chord Organ and the Pointer System of chords. Went from many organs to where I am today trying to catch up on the lessons I missed years ago.

Musician's I admire. Many in the Big Band era, but now a great many on this forum.

Luv'd a lot of the organs I have owned, but the 7000 is the top to me. When I find something better, I would change.
