I saw Virgil on TV and video many times and he had a personality that was endearing at least to me. He used to play the Fillmore, Virgil Fox and Heavy Organ. The folks at those shows really "dug" it. His reading of Toccata and Fugue in D minor (?) was my first exposure to "heavy organ". I was hooked for life. I used to have some "heavy vinyl" VF organ records back in the day. My system back then could not do them justice. I went to an organ recital last year by a fellow that reminded me a lot of VF. Most of the "popular" organists these days are pretty flamboyant or at least have a lot of personality. I like that. I heard a young organ phenom here a couple years ago who was truely gifted but had no stage persona. He put on a great recital but there was no show. VF put on a show and would give you a history and music lesson as well.
