What ever became of "Fabulous" Eddie Osborne, the organ player with
the special technique that wow'd the audiophiles about 30 years ago
with his aaa-ooo-gaaa horn and mighty Wurlitzer rendition of Merry
Oldsmobile, Bicycle Built for Two, McNamara's Band, etc. on Replica
Records.  Last I heard, Replica had built a special recording studio
around two Wurlitzers hooked together in Des Plaines, Illinois. That
must have been more than 25 years ago. He was a relatively young guy.
Would only be 67 today. I am aware of only two discs of his, both
by Replica Records and only one recorded in the super organ studio.
Both Mono, both still great sound.
