What a lovely memory! And what a genero...Barbara,<br /><br />What a lovely memory! And what a generous person that man was! Nothing like live music to soothe the soul. <br /><br />Oh, Debbi!<br />Thanks so much for taking time to type all that! Fabulous...you know, in the deeeeep, dark recesses of this old mind, I seem to remember this song! It's simply GREAT!!! Best part: playing all night and the music's all right!! It isn't bad! What a hoot! Great comment! Thanks so much!<br /><br />NCMW...Carolyn did you realize that I didnt' realize you had a blog??? It took me all this time to figure that out! Duh! And that you "formerly" lived in WI. Got it straight now, though!<br /><br />Vicki, I know you've heard the old "saw" that if a tree falls in the forest, and there's no one around, it doesn't make any sound! It's kind of like that with accordions...thanks for being a listener! We musicians need you!<br /><br />Julia, <br /><br />How neat that your dad played. It's amazing when I did a little research on it,how this portable one-person band, has crept into cultures worldwide. Most don't have the (good-natured) derision that we seem to have in this country for it. We do seem to malign many of the good things that are simple. however inadvertently.Elorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04579555623060708938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642807619836239233.post-75093518435764581052010-10-22T04:18:25.239-04:002010-10-22T04:18:25.239-04:00Since you prefer the old standards, I wonder if yo...Since you prefer the old standards, I wonder if you've ever heard The Who's "Squeezebox."

I WOULD HAVE BEEN ONE OF THOSE IN THE CROWD LISTENING TO YOUR ACCORDION. I USED TO WORK WITH A MAN THAT BROUGHT HIS ACCORDION TO WORK, SOMETIMES, AND WOULD PLAY IT FOR US AT LUNCH. WE LOVED IT.
