Lake Compounce Wurlitzer Band Organ Plays Again
By Andrew Lardieri

Since 2009, due to budget cuts, Lake Compounce theme park in Bristol,
Connecticut, has shut off their Wurlitzer 153 band organ located on the
grand carousel (of which 3 CD's were produced).

The band organ music had been replaced with cheap canned music for some
time -- that is, until now. It's definitely the 153 due to how loud the
music is in this clip:
