- This is the”Fotoplayer” manufactured by the American Photo Player Co. New York, NY- Berkeley, CAL. USA. I had the opportunity to experience this in person which was very interesting so I thought I would share it. All credit goes to Joe Rinaudo. Thank you for allowing me to film this and share it with everyone. The Fotoplayer is incredibly complex and requires skill not only to restore it but play it as well. “What you could do is introduce….” Thanks for watching.

Syntheads be like: this be my gramp's TRUE analog synth.
it makes me extremely happy that such an impressive and intricate piece of machinery from such an old era is still up and running like new, its beautiful. also quite happy that joe himself is still around and seems as spry as ever, considering most videos of him and his fotoplayer are like 10 years old, i wasnt expecting to really find any new stuff about them both. glad i was mistaken!
Glad you enjoyed it
Hit it, Joe!
Man hit it hard to this day. 🔥
This guy needs his own album
I’ve always wanted to visits this guy’s house. Super cool instrument that I would love to play

Yup

He has a YT channel too, just search up “entry of the gladiators on an American photoplayer” you’ll find him very quickly
Indeed, it's him

Is this where the term "With all the bells and whistles" comes from?
🔍🤔💭💡
“Sounds” very likely.
🎓💎🎯
Joe hits it yet again
Very impressive. What a marvel. I didn't know about such instruments. Thanks for sharing and taking good care of this beauty. Regards from France.
They used to be used
Joe is amazing....love his videos! Thanks for posting.
You bet!
It's amazing how this old instrument is still in perfect condition!!!
Joe is legendary
It’s simply amazing!! I’m Italian and working in a museum with a collection of musical boxes( like a orchestrion, graphophone, grammophone etc.) I’ve seen more of this (beautiful) machines but nothing are like a photoplayer. I’m an historian of cinema and for me this music represented the pioneers of seventh art, with a childish feeling of freedom and joy, a song of liberty… photoplayer is most amazing music boxes never invented ❤❤❤
I am a lover of music boxes and automata. I agree, the photoplayer is the greatest invention in music
bro make some video to introduce your collections :)
Im not Italian.
One lovely guy! 🤗
I’d love to see a cover of some modern pop music on this
you are wonderful, thank you for this, God bless.
Glad it was helpful!
this thing is awesome!!! i wish i knew what the bells, sirens/whistles and horn looked like inside!
Hit it Joe!
The last photoplayer player!
Does this guy know how to party or what!!!
I love it man, keep it up!
Joe is “Mr. American Fotoplayer.” A marvelous instrument, likely detested by the musicians it replaced in silent film…
He even got the honkler, oh man
HIT IT JOE
Whats the name of this piece being played on the piano??
how can we thank him personally?
How is the sound at 2:59 made? The second pull-rope on his right hand that makes the long "whistle" sound?
Aaw (analog audio workstation)
question! how old is mr joe?
I believe in his late 70’s
Se escucha bien mamón!!!!
Bro dropped the silliest beat
Tom & Jerry?
Goofy ahh instrument
"There will never be a mischievous and Goofy instrument" mfs when they see this
