A Collection of Aussie Radio Shows No 174 All Stops Out - Part 3 For many years, commencing December 2003, I produced and presented this Theatre Organ Music program "ALL STOPS OUT", featuring the mighty sounds of various Theatre organs from though out the World. If you love that sound then I am sure you will enjoy this series of programs. During the course of producing this program I met and made friends with many great Theatre organists. Thank you all for your contribution to the programs. Text: Alex Hehr Disclaimer: By uploading these files, I make no claim to ownership or copyright.
