OxRecs’s welcome tribute to Lindley on his distinguished 22-year tenure as Leeds city organist omits music notes and mention of the Town Hall’s fine 81-stop three-manual organ by Gray & Davison (1858). He lavishes technical accomplishment and enthusiasm upon an entertaining pot-pourri of Romantic classics and shameless flim-flam. Graeme Kay
