2018, a NEW 2-Disc CD, $25.00
The Alabama Wurlitzer At Its Best featuring Tom Hazleton, recorded 1986
In 1986, with the fate of the Alabama Theatre and its Wurlitzer uncertain, Alabama ATOS commissioned Tom Hazleton to make recordings to document and preserve the "Alabama Theatre Sound". At 21 ranks, only the English Post Horn had been added to the original Publix #1 specification.
The original release was available only on a vinyl LP or a cassette tape. In 2017/2018, the original digital master tapes were found and used to create two CD's. Disc one is a digital release of the recording as released on vinyl in 1986. Disc two contains material intended for a second album which never happened until now. Also included are conversations and banter during the session by Hazleton, the recording engineers and a few others present during the session.

The Alabama Wurlitzer featuring Tom Hazleton, Tom Hazleton, recorded 2001 (CD, $20.00)
Recorded September 16, 2001 - five days after September 11 - and concluding with a moving patriotic medley, this is one of our favorite recordings of the Alabama Wurlitzer. "A master of the King of Instruments" according to the Los Angeles Times, Hazleton was considered to be one of the few concert organists equally at home at the console of both classical and theatre organs -- and this recording shares fine examples of both registrations and styles.
