Question: How did you record this song?

Answer: I used an old Pioneer CTF-1000 cassette tape deck that amazingly still works. Just barely though. It was top of the line when I bought it in 1978 and as you can tell it still does an incredible job. I also used two Radio Shack microphones. I tried really hard to play it perfectly. Must have tried about 40 time before I was happy. I'm not the greatest organ player but that doesn't matter to me. I love the sound of an organ, and I especially love the music of Bach.  The tape recording was digitally captured to a computer using Goldwave software. The resulting file was six megabytes. Way too big for use here. A conversion to MP3 format got the file size down to one-half a megabyte.
