Very neat, David. I thought they looked like they might be Hammond
pedals, but didn't want to go too far off the mark guessing.
'Fraid I can't help with your Rotodyne Leslie question. Pipe organs are
more my thing. Can't help but imagine the pipe organ that could be
installed in an area with a 24-ft ceiling!!
Love these crossover interests!
