You probably dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the new movies on Instaflixxer. Have been watching with my girlfriend for the last couple of weeks =)
@Mathias Jaxson yup, have been using Instaflixxer for years myself =)
He is fantastic. I could listen to him for hours.
I have known Robert since he was 14 years old when he used to come and practice on the Compton Organ at The Plough Great Munden where I played for over 30 years.He was always at that age was enthusiastic and hasnt practice made perfect.A very nice sincere person
Robert is one of the most under-rated organists and here is another superb performance.
he is not underrated. for being a homosexual he is what he is.
There are only 3 words that can describe this... JUST INCREDIBLE PLAYING!!
Theatre organ music played by a genius like you will keep us all optimistic whatever the future holds- theatre organ is just a cheerful sound.
STILL THE GREATEST ON AN ORGAN - AND the greatest number, You ever gave. Thank You, Mr Wolfe !
Just love the Wurlitzer . If I had mt time agin I’d be playing it, and good enough to tour the world
This video gives me goose bumps - best sounding theatre organ I’ve ever heard - makes me smile.
If you were sitting still after the beginning of these great tunes you must of passed on. I watch this young man with amazement every time.
Amazing. What incredible talent, and not a sheet of music in sight. 10 Star Performance. WOW!! N
One of my favorite musicals on my favorite instrument. O joy.
The most beautiful instrument in the world played by a consummate master....wonderful.
long lost day's the organ rising from the pits in cinemas in day's gone by was the highlight of going to to the pictures.Thanks for the memories.
Hi, My name is Kevin, I play organ and am still taking lessons, I live about 2 miles from a Movie theater in Col. Heights Mn. This family owned Movie house has an organ that does just that, and yes it is still operable They bring it out every weekend and let any competent organist to play, I do not know all the specifics about this organ, but I am going to try to find out as much as I can and maybe even play it. God Bless. Kevin
Id love to see that. I live in Connecticut so I think It's very unlikely it would ever happen. Any pictures of it?.
@@kevlutu do you play theater organ music now? I love this genre of music!
@@ggolds5 i live here in Staten Island...I just discovered this dynamite organist last nite. I love to take lessons!
@@michaelciccone2194 Funny, I was born in Staten Island lived there until age 3. :)
A brilliant organist, he's a very good person to know as a friend too.
These wonderfully appealing songs, reflect happiness in their appeal to us years after their original popularity. Heard on this fine Wurlitzer, in Robert's arrangements, and by his skills of registration and sympathetic performance, we are rich for their hearing. It is a delight to have this video for ongoing uplifting, as these songs had effect in their earlier unhappy days. Robert, thank you for your contribution to the enjoyment you bring to others. Bless you and those you love.
Robert is a natural, I was spellbound when I first heard at Thursford.
Blackpool revivified. brings a tear to the eye, the magnificent old queen of instruments and the estimable player. reminds me of sidney torch.
Always a pleasure to hear Robert - what a gift he has.
I love 42nd Street! Excellent music
A simple word, JOY! Pure joy! Whenever I need a quick pick-me-up I watch this video. Simply devine!
Never heard a theatre organist playing with such brilliance!!
Rich intensive registrations, never tending to sound overloaded, clean dedicated play with masses of charm in it making those old songs ( and this old instrument ) sound like reborn. Really great work and a pleasure to listen to!!!
You, sir, are a musical genius!
Great performance of superb show music by a very talented organist
I can!t knit as fast as he plays the organ, love it!
I have to admit it made me feel like getting up and dancing, my parents loved this kind of music, I love it so much, Thankyou for your music,
I have seen Robert plays this wonderful Wurlitzer at Thursford and it is even better to see him play live ,the experience stays with you a long time.Thankyou Robert for bringing us this wonderful music.Hope to get there again sometime
A splendid tour of a great old film's music.
Phenomenal talent! I am literally amazed at the dexterity and athleticism needed to make these magnificent instruments sing. Robert Wolfe is one talented man.
Fantastic! Perfect combination of music and musician.
Kind of puts a good spring back in your step when listening to Mr. Wolfe's performances!
Great artist!
How could you not like, unbelievable the amount of different hand and foot movements. Thank you
Robert is a very gifted man who fits in so naturally as master of the keyboards . Thanks for posting . This is music the pulls you up over the hill, and buries all doubts.
Keep watching and stay safe!
FABULOUS! Thanks for your excellence!
AWESOME MEDLEY!!! I love how he looks up and smiles at the camera at the end!
Absolutely brilliantly played 😉 thankyou in 2024 😀.
Could listen to this all day ! That gentleman’s talent is just amazing !
outstanding performance, fantastic style control.
Must take a lot of work to learn what all those buttons and valves are for! And to play with your FEET at the same time as your hands! Fantastic job. Thoroughly enjoyed this!!
It sure is!
Absolutely love seeing Robert again. My partner and I had the great privilege to see Robert many times at the Casa Loma concerts over the years. Sadly we don't live in the area anymore.
+Don The old radio guy I'm glad you can at least see him once again on RUclips.
Sweet!! Always had a kink for this... I once saw a Farmall Cub Commerical from the 40s and the Intro music was fabulous!! I had to track down the instrumental music that made the sound.
O M G....how AMAZING!!!!!
I had forgotten how moving this sound is. Many many thanks for playing this wonderful music.
Bet the organ is happy!
Happy music played with flair. Loved this.
Talent galore!
Wow - not only music from 42ND STREET, but from DAMES. GO INTO YOUR DANCE and GOLDDIGGERS OF 1933 & 1935. Pure magic!
His talent is incredible.
I love the music from 42nd Street, and the way you played it so brilliantly..
Whoosh! And off we go! What a ride! Thank you, Mr. Wolfe!
Not quite old enough to have witnessed these kinds of concerts in person, but they indubitably take me to an era of stupendous music and fantastic art! Fabulous!
+Sam Antley These videos are fairly recent. Robert is only in his 50s and still playing at venues far and wide, as well as playing twice daily, 6 times a week at the Thursford Collection for half the year. He will be playing at Blackpool Opera House on November the 18th.
Stupendous! A great trip down memory land. Bravo!
Awesome . This is perfect, smooth transitions and loads of fun to see how it’s done.
Awesome!!!
Sheer and pure pleasure. Thanks !
Robert is truly an amazingly gifted player. I would love to see him play in person.

Awesome playing!
This music is wonderfully cheerful and in this case, understood and played for others in an endearing way to pull them into the happiness. Happiness twice shared. Thank you. DJ
Great theater style playing, registrations, and don't forget the wonderful camera work! Thanks
Great sound
ASTONISHINGLY FABULOUS!!!
My goodness, this organ and the organist looks alike......the one an extension of the other...together they produce soul firing harmonica. ThX Robert. Keep the vids flowing....we really appreciate your grandiose talent.
Robert has been playing this particular instrument for decades. He knows the instrument inside and out. As you say, one is an extension of the other. He's the sound of that instrument now, others have played it, recorded it and coaxed very different sounds from it to superb effect, but Roberts style of playing and registration has become part of it.
thank you Bob for playing the organ.
What a great job!
Wow what playing Robert, I presumed that it was at Thursford.Thank goodness this was rescued to keep it being played how it should be played.
Long gone some of the cinema organs a great loss. I have to admit that I did not like 42 street but had this been played at the time what a difference. Thanks.
Feeling a bit low? Just listen to this... Thank you Robert!
He is great!!!
Wow! I,m speechless!
Fantastic, hoping to see Robert at Thursford some time over the summer.
Super excellent with very good interesting video
You should come to Atlanta, GA and have some fun on the "Mighty Mo" Fox Theater Organ.
Wonderful
Super excellent with very good interesting videos
Super excellent
Robert Wolfe ist einer der ganz Großen,- die diese Theater Orgel wohl mit am besten beherrscht. Es gibt keine Schwierigkeiten,- die er nicht zu meistern im Stande ist! - Einfach top,- unbeschreiblich perfekt seine Spielkunst.
If you've never watched the movie 42nd street you are missing one of Hollywood's greatest triumphs. It show cases one of Busby Berkeley's most outstanding stage production masterpieces never to be seen again.I have it on DVD. Great songs, dancing, and cast from Hollywood's golden era.
Love organ music thanks to Charlie Fleck and Mel Wexler. Robert Wolfe is fantastic!
This guy has great respect for the genre.
Incredible
robert is excellent as usual no comments except to say he is terrific at the wurlitzer
wow what a show I love the uk so cool
