While visiting my mother, I decided to make some videos on my other organ . The Orla GT3000 made in 2004. I hope you enjoy  my version of one of Joe Burke's Lovely old numbers.
Joseph A. Burke (March 18, 1884 – June 9, 1950) was an American composer and pianist.

Burke was born in Philadelphia and died in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania. He graduated from the Philadelphia Conservatory of Music and started as a pianist accompanying silent movies and an arranger in a music publishing firm. It was during this time that he started writing songs for publication. After he had a few hits he started composing full-time. He partnered with some great lyricists; Benny Davis ("Carolina Moon") and Walter Donaldson ("'Just the Same") and Joseph McCarthy ("Rambling Rose"). However, the partners he had the most successes with were, Al Dubin ("Tiptoe Through the Tulips", "I'm Painting the Clouds with Sunshine", "For You") and Edgar Leslie ("On Treasure Island", "A Little Bit Independent", "In a Little Gypsy Tea Room", "Moon Over Miami", "It Looks Like Rain on Cherry Blossom Lane") He spent most of his professional career on the East Coast but, for a short time in the late 1920s and early 1930s, he lived in Los Angeles where he composed film scores and several songs for movies.
