"Winter Draws On" was written by Harper and Haines in 1932 and was a big hit for Gracie Fields. Unfortunately the words are not avail;able on the Internet but I do love one line which needs to rhyme with "And weather will be murky." The creative writer suggests "We'll all be out of worky."
Given the age of the song theatre organ seemed the way to go.

Good Morning Keith,

That was a new one on me, but it was certainly a nice one to listen to, and not that easy to play I would imagine.
You made a good job of it and I liked the organ voice you used.

Probably in the top ten in the mid late 30's - just a bit before you were born!
Thanks to you both for commenting.
