Organ Solos With A Beat

From the back cover: Strangely enough Lenny Dee did not start his music career as an organist. At seven he was playing the banjo; his next instrument was the piano-accordion. He was unsure what kind of a musician, he would be when he joined the Navy, and when he got out of it he enrolled at the Conservatory of Music in Chicago. It was there on a G. I. Bill, that Lenny took his first lessons at the organ – and knew that this was the instrument for him.
Soon he was preparing professionally, and it was not long before he was booked at some of the most prominent hotels in the South. A weekly network made a bid for him; he also played at Nashville's Plantation Club. His contract with Decca Records gave him national publicity; his first recordings were immediate hits.
