Wow, Dnj, talking about "brings back..." This is Jim Harris a friend of mine in the same town playing my FA1 that I had traded for his custom music PC setup. Right after that, someone donated him another FA1. Then all of a sudden he passed away.

About 7 years ago, he came over to my place and said he wanted to pick up the accordion and wanted to rent one of my accordions. He said, "I can't carry around my orgran like you do with an accordion."

For these great organs, you could just add a Ketron SD40 and have the best of two worlds.... The SD40 comes with a special mode for organs...

He sounds like Walter Wanderley. What a great sound. I loved his sound. Thanks for the post Dnj.

I am very much interested in the SD40. I wonder if the vocal harmonizer in it is any good.

Dnj, thanks for the video. I looked it up and found Jim's old Youtube ID. https://www.youtube.com/user/6a65682 He used hexadecimal numbers for his ID 6a65682, which spells out JEH Jim Edward(I think) Harris when converted to text. He was good at technology.
