I was asked quite a while ago if I could upload this without the vibrato. I have finally got round to doing it. Sorry for the delay to the one that asked me for it.

The plan was to fly the drone over once a month until it was completed, bad weather and covid had other ideas. Sorry about the jerky footage, I used 2 drones that were on different frame rates.

Most locals know what it's like to walk, run or ride around here. This is what it looks like to fly around. DJI Mini 2 The Millennium Mammoth was built to commemorate the discovery of ice age mammoth remains found when Watermead was a quarry. Music is "The Ballet" by David Foster.

The Grimethorpe Colliery Band is a brass band, based in Grimethorpe, South Yorkshire, England. It was formed in 1917, as a leisure activity for the workers at the colliery, by members of the disbanded Cudworth Colliery Band. Along with the Black Dyke Mills Band, the band became the first to perform at the Proms. Grimethorpe Band achieved worldwide fame after appearing in the film Brassed Off. D...
Friedland 603/Maestro Westminster Chime Door Bell Vintage 1975
Просмотров 9 тыс.3 года назад
Friedland 603/Maestro Westminster Chime Door Bell Vintage 1975. Motor driven with unique vibrato feature that makes it sound like no other door chime. This model was used by Paul McCartney for the intro to the hit Wings song 'Let 'Em In' It was also George and Mildred's doorbell in the classic British sitcom.
Part of me thinks this is all run via a Telechron Rotor, although I'm unsure. The vibrato kinda gives it away to me, as owning a GE 416 clock, I would notice the rotor rotating past all slots in the Hourly snail before disengaging the hammers.
I have the same one and trying to find someone who can repair it
I have refurbished one before but nothing was broke, it just needed a good clean and a new transformer that has to be 12 volts. If anything has broke then it would be more difficult to fix.
I don't know why they don't do what they do in Cricket and tennis and use technology to hone a player's skill. Hydraulics that propel the ball into the air where the challenge is to bring it down and do something with it. Use it for all sorts of scenarios and challenges. It's the problem with EPPP or whatever it's called that all these training grounds look the same, with one pitch under cover, etc. I'd depart completely if I was a club owner.
This should really help them tower over the opposition ....................in the EFL.
ทุ่มสร้างเพื่ออนาคตแม้ปีนี้ทีมจะตกชั้น
Translated to English I think this says something like "Invest in building for the future, even if this year the team is relegated."
I have one in my home. Unfortunately, it no longer sounds like this. Some of the hammers ( not sure if that's what they are called) have fallen. Thanks for the video.
What do you mean by fallen?. This one just needed a good clean inside to get it working.
@@ShangriLa523218 any idea if these can be found for sale anywhere? I tried searching but no luck
@@brendanwatson9612 I found one on ebay about 8 years ago for £25(I must have been very lucky) I haven't seen one since, I refurbished it and sold it for a nice profit. I am always looking for another so if I find one I will let you know. I still use the one my dad bought in the 70s but that will never be for sale.
@@ShangriLa523218 what a lucky find, and thank you so much - that would be amazing! Definitely always hang on to and cherish that one your dad bought. Such a cool piece of history to have. And reminds me of Let ‘Em In
This sound is in the beginning of Paul McCartney's "Let Em In" song.
That’s maguire and fofana money
groovy!
I keep visiting charity shops in the vain hope of finding something like this.
bravo~ por , do you want a promo?.goodbye!, mr!
someone's knocking at the door somebody's ringing the bell
Paul McCartney's 1976 song from Speed Of Sound Let Em In Brought me here
That must be the most perfect doorbell sound ever! The vibrato is the iing on the cake.
George and Mildred brought me here
Are you able to make this chime play the melody without the "sustain" or "vibrato effect" on?
The vibrato works by a motor turning the mechanism with a small drive belt, you could simply take the drive belt off to stop the vibrato.
@@ShangriLa523218 I wonder how that would sound like without the vibrato effect (it's very 60-70s)
I have tried it without the vibrato but I think it is much better with it.
@@ShangriLa523218 Would you be so kind as to record it and post it on youtube? I hope you don't mind!
@@jbol2454 Yes I could do that, I have a couple of busy days but I will do it as soon as possible 😀
nice work Melvyn!
Thanks
Can you buy this
I found this one on eBay and refurbished it and it has now sold again. The ones from the 70's are very hard to find now, they re-issued it in the 80's and they are the ones that turn up mostly. Keep looking on eBay they do turn up. I still use one that my dad bought in the 70's but that will never be up for sale.
Georg e and Mildred had this one
I have always loved the Westminster chimes. Westminster chimes are a classic old fashioned chime.
George and Mildred also had one in their house in the 1970s comedy series.
What are the other unused electrical contacts for?
You can wire up two more bells, a ding and a dong
These seem to be incredibly rare. Any idea where I might be able to buy one?
I think your only chance is on ebay, that is where I found this one but it took many months to find. I have one that I still use today that my Dad bought in 1974.
@@ShangriLa523218 Cheers, I’ll keep an eye out! Classic bit of 70s tech!
One has just turned up on ebay They are asking £199 for it.
Your best hope is charity and junk shops in case of a house clearance.
@Melvyn Anderson my late mother had a cheaper version my parents bought about 1970 but when she went into a care home I never thought to save it. It was plastic cased made by Phillips I think.
Open the door, and let em in!
Wings.
"Door George !...."
My thoughts exactly! 😂
Nice video. Liked and subscribed.
Thanks, I hope to get a steam train going over in the future.
That's lovely, same principle as a vibraphone! Do you remember friedland's retail fixture that had all their range on, you could go into the shop and press the buttons to hear the different ones before buying. I'm sure I drove the shopkeepers mad.
I remember the retail fixture well, in a shop called May's in Leicester, I also enjoyed pressing all the buttons. I am still using the one my dad bought in 1975, this one I found on eBay and refurbished it and it has now resold.
I used to annoy the shopkeepers with their display chimes too. Friedland chimes were sold by GE in the USA, but a couple of models like this and the square-tubed York never made it over here.
There was one of those displays here in Dublin too in the 70s, in Roches Stores, downstairs. Best fun a kid could have down there I can tell you, there was nothing else entertaining. The harsh buzzer must have really pissed off the shopkeepers. Bzzzz
Fantastic video Melvyn, with absolutely wonderful music. Incredible structure! Abide With Me was one of the first pieces I learned when starting the Euphonium for my school brass band and so this video brought back some very old memories :)
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment. I never learned to play myself but my Dad had his own brass band and two of my brothers played in the band, one on Baritone and the other on Euphonium. This is my favourite version of Abide with me and my favourite drone. I enjoy watching your videos.
Love this model! Westminster chimes played on tone bar reeds is not very common, most of the time it was with the long tube chimes
