   “The Happy Organ” was literally one of my most favorite records as a kid! It’s one of the greatest cheap organ sounds ever and I’m forever trying to re-create it in any organ part I put on any of my songs to this day. The LP is even out in my studio as reference.

   Just checked Google.. He was from Detroit???…went to Northwestern!!! ..He was pulled from touring with Little Anthony and the Imperials to go on the road with The Happy Organ???..
   Completely forgot about his “Rinky Dink”…1962
