~~Breathes there a man, woman or child who can resist the temptation to join in for a chorus or two of a well known old song? We doubt it!

There's something about a good old song, played or sung the good old way, that has a special charm for most of us which no other form of music can come close to.

Here are the songs... Heart Of My Heart, Down By The Old Mill Stream, That Old Gang Of Mine, Darktown Strutters' Ball, and many others... songs everybody knows, although many were written before most of us were born.

To play them for you... Lenny Dee, a gentleman who can not only coax the good old sounds out of his custom-built Hammond, but a number of modern sounds no one has yet had the courage to attempt to imitate.

One of the country's foremost instrumentalists, organist Lenny Dee is a versatile composite of attributes that spelling great entertainment in bold capital letters. He is a serious musician with a remarkably complete and sensitive understanding of his instrument. At the same time, however, he is a dynamic, uninhibited showman, with an extraordinary technique for coaxing his audiences into having as much fun as he is... which is a considerable amount.

Here then, are songs everybody knows... played by the incomparable Lenny Dee at the organ.

We dare you not to join in!~~
