It is where I danced as young man, in the 1950s, to these tunes. Happy days, no drugs, no knives, no violence.

Takes me back to my happy times dancing in Blackpool.

Reginald Dixon will always be the best !

WOW !!! This is a 5 ***** video! Many, many thanks for the opportunity to hear the great Reginald Dixon at the Blackpool Mighty Wurlitizer !!!

When I was a little girl after the war I enjoyed Reginald. He allowed my dad Bob Sutcliffe to play for him at the Tower organ when he took a break. This happened every holiday we had in Blackpool.I have beautiful memories

OMG when I was a child my late grandfather gave me a pile of acetate 78's and LP's. We lost contact with him and about 10 years later my father was coldly told "oh he died many years ago"! Long story but his wife banned grandad from seeing his son or gransons ever again??? I slowly worked my way through the records until I reached REGINALD DIXON AT THE BLACKPOOL TOWER ORGAN!! I had never heard anything like it!!! I played that record over and over until sadly it got damaged and wouldnt play anymore, I guess the grooves got too deep?? . I took to the organ so much my father bought me a small portable reed organ and I was on my way! I have played keyboards (badly )since then, at one time having a large Hammond in my bedroom!!. Now arthritis has overcome my hands and the pain stops me playing much now, I ALWAYS wanted to be allowed to play a WURLITZER, but that dream was never realised. Thank you Reg Dixon you should have been KNIGHTED!!!!

atmospheric..love it..now the 70s northern soul grace the floor

What an artist & im glad to have met Reg. on several occasions A real gentleman.

Thank you for your appreciation and comments - one is tempted to say "the world's gone mad" so far as melodic and tuneful music is concerned....

Absolutely wonderful stuff. I remember hearing and seeing him play. Thanks for uploading this great video.

Thanks - glad it brought back happy memories.

Reginald Dixon's played the organ on radio and in Blackpool Tower.

They still sing along to them now!

Thanks for listening Charles - as you say, he was great to see and hear.

LOVE IT. LOVE IT.

Great

Wonderful

@dukesgal39 Many thanks for your comments and attention - old Reg certainly had that magic touch! All he best.

Love it.

Many thanks for your attention (only just saw it as YT plays me up!) - will do!

Doesn't get any more nostalgic than this I guess. It's almost ghostly.

thanks for listening, John!

Thank you so much for your comments - yes I have a rather too big / out of date electric keyboard/organ - and would love to create more space and buy a smaller but more up-to-date and better keyboard - must get aronud to it soon....Regards.

@3dwurli Well I'm really glad to hear that!

Thanks for your comments - I had not thought of it like that but music and recordings can have strange effects I must admit...

In response to requests for names of tunes, in playing order: - By The Fireside; - Walkin' My Baby Back Home; - Five Foot Two, Eyes Of Blue; - Who Were You With Last Night? - Side By Side; - Deep In The Heart Of Texas; - Let Me Call You Sweetheart; - Put Your Arms Around Me Honey; - The Gang That Sang Heart Of My Heart.

Best wishes.

nobody did it like mr. blackpool

HI there, wordsmith. In reply to your reply below... yes I understand. The tech end of things can be so difficult, making it a challenge to do all we would hope for with our videos. I had a friend put subtitles in one of my singalongs, which I referred to in my comment below. He said it was quite time consuming and difficult... so, I have not really tried to do much with that in my other singalongs. Maybe someday! Enjoyed your video. -M :)

Could you list the songs? Great to listen to, by the by. Gosh, it was another era...

how can i download these's for the old folks .as i am retired Dj.now 73yr's old love to have this music.

@211digger Thanks digger - all the best!

any chance of some more phil kelsall aswell as mr blackpool .

atmospheric..

@MichaelAuthorAllAges Thanks so much, Michael - I wish I was able t put up the words of teh songs as subtitles but the technology I have does not make it very possible! Regards.

Thanks for clarifying - was RG the comedian ever on the box? - I don't think he is very well known.

Ok thanks for clarifying - yes of course each to his own - I don't altogether disagree in some respects - I remember so called holidays by the seaside with terrible weather, always short of money, food, and culture - ma & pa scrimping and scraping et al - it was lamentable and sad that way but it was better than nowt and looking back through nostalgic eyes removes most of the discomfort.

Neat! I love hearing the organ. Very nice. I have a singalong with subtitles in my Music Poetry and Art by Michael featured playlist (and also do a daily recording which is featured on my page which has golden oldies public domain songs sung by myself and played on various instruments. Going to check out your page now. Have a great day! -Michael :)

ha ha ha - I think you were expecting awful lamentable rubbish of a different kind!!

proper music like it should be not all this rap shit what clogs up all the music stores in stead of a skip.
