Selection of Christmas Music played by Kathryn Holley
Posted: 19 Dec 2021 00:07
I'm sure many of you are aware that I have a Yamaha AR80 organ and have been running a Forum for AR organs for about 25 years .. the AR Group. It was because of this that Mike Bracchi was happy for me to help with the Admin of his Forum (ie.TDP) when he was running it, and when Mike moved on to run his Vintage Organ Group on Facebook, I had got so involved with TDP I took the opportunity of taking it over and running it. I have Dennis (from Australia) helping me .. and that is where we are now.
I have a friend who lives in Wales (Kathryn Holley) who also has an AR80 organ and she has contributed many, many of her recordings to the AR Group for Members to listen to .. in the form of floppy disk recordings! (Those of you who had Tyros 1, 2 or 3 will remember floppy disks!) Unfortunately, she can't join the AR Group or join our Forum either as she has no computer and no internet access! She plays the organ in her local Church, and plays in her local Community Hall for Line Dancing .. but of course hasn't bee able to do a lot of this because of Covid restrictions. So she decided this year to record some Christmas numbers to a CD and has sent me a copy. I have converted the tracks to MP3 and put them up in the AR Group Forum for their Members to listen to. If any of you would like to pop over and listen to it, here is the LINK that will take you there.

When I listened to it I think I only knew seven of the tracks!
