    The organ was donated by my father (Walter T. Winn). He donated the organ of his own choice. TI say this because people have said he thought the organ he donated would be put into the 'pizza restaurant' in Marietta GA. but that was a Wurlitzer at the 'Showboat Pizza. He did help install that organ, but it was not the one he donated. However, he did donate the 'Page Organ' he had owned and played in his own warehouse for years to Stephenson High School in Stone Mountain, GA. through the ATOS because he wanted to preserve the instrument! Don't believe me, look at the plaque on the base of the organ. It says: 'The Grande Page Theatre Pipe Organ. Donated May 19, 1991 to the Atlanta Chapter of the ATOS (American Theatre Organ Society) by Walt and Donna Winn.' Aka my father. He was married to Donna at the time but has since been married to Catherine Winn (My mother) and we will not take this lack of recognition! I will give whatever proof you want for me to prove this, but I will not have my father defaced and disregarded like this. He may have passed in 2016, but I do not forget him, and neither should you!

    I have a suspicion that the pedals were not used in this video, anyone?

    • @ATOSAtlanta

      The "Pedal" keyboard is integral to theatre organ as it's used to play the bass line. If you want to hear the Pedal in action, you'll need to listen on a decent sound system or pair of headphones (most phones, tablets, and earbuds won't reproduce those low frequencies). If you want to see the Pedal keyboard in action in the video, jump to the camera shots at 00:56 , 08:17, 13:10, or 21:29 (just to highlight a few). On two of those examples, you'll also hear that Ken is using the Pedal to play the tap cymbal in conjunction with the bass.
