Ah, yes. It's coming back to me now. I had a brief brush with an original Mirage which I probably got from Medley Music in Bryn Mawr (I'm sure I sent Gerson's kids through college
).
Sometime in the early 1990's, during the jazz festival in Philly, I got to attend a concert at the George Washington Hotel that consisted of all (or most of) the great organ players of the time. Some of whom you mentioned and Joey was there as well. It was an unbelievable show.[/B]
I'm drooling just thinking about it. That's got to be a great memory. Don't just hold on to it, pass it on to the next generation.
You would think that somebody would have made a set of full pedals that are easy to carry around. I have suggested a design that would fit into a standard 76 note gig bag to a couple of different companies but neither seemed interested. The fact is there probably aren't enough people who would buy something like that to make it worth investing in.

Yeah, pity. Even less likely since, technically, one already exists, although it's really, really, heavy and pretty much dedicated to Hammond products. Oh well.
