tough choice once again, not amenable to the eeny meeny miney moh treatment so I will say Cinderella white.

which sequence in "Fantasia" is your favorite-
"the rite of spring" [the one with the dinosaurs]
or-
"ave maria"? [last sequence with the procession of the monks]

Thomas Waller ("Fats"). I would have loved to hear him on a big instrument, like the Wanamaker Organ at what's now Macy's in Center City Philadelphia, or the Austin Organ at St. Matthew's Lutheran in Hanover, PA, or the Aeolian-Skinner Organ at the Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City.

Speaking of Organists:

Felix Hell (currently artist in residence at Gettysburg College) or Diane Bish?

I have a foot in both, hank Williams is as close to bluegrass as I feel comfortable, and Edwin Hawkins is as close as I can get to gospel. james brown did a bumpin' gospel number in "the blues brothers" ["the old landmark"]. IOW I cannot choose.
and for the second question, I am only into theatrical organ, so as good as both of those organists are, I choose neither. Charles balogh is my fave Wurlitzer theatrical artist.

pianists once again-
dick hyman
or
roger Williams?

Country gospel (the Goodman Family) or black gospel? If given that choice, I'll take black gospel.

Buck Owens or Roy Clark?

pete fountain

benny goodman?
