Seeing a similar post on here reminded me of a track I recorded 8 years ago. I can't remember what what RTs I used maybe a few kind folks will know more. The accordion at the time was my Elkavox 83
Songs are only you, my prayer & twilight time

The Platters are always at the top of my list, and your medley is comprised of my favorite Platter's songs. I love your accordion for this. (I've always enjoyed listening to the accordion.) On a side note: My local library has all the Outlander series books along with Seven stones to Stand or Fall : A Collection of Outlander Fiction. The books are all checked out, so I need to place a hold on them.

Nice work, Graham smile Really engaging, and love the melodies here. It flows beautifully and creates some stunning imagery. Your accordion on this is stunning as well.

You really nailed this one - thanks so much for sharing!

Graham,
very nice accordion playing and recording. I know how difficult is to record accordions the "right way".
Excellent arrangement and mix.

Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Misha it was actually a great learning experience at the time trying to figure out the chords. It was REAL fun as well, took me hours to get it right

What a great presentation Graham. This is very relaxing and tasty.

Loved the accordion playing, masterfully and skillfully delivered.

Nice!

Dear Graham,

I said it before: I really love the way you play the accordeon.

If anybody had told me that this instrument would ever fit any Platters' song, I would have had my doubts. But you made those songs sound like they were especially written for you.
Very impressive!

All the best,

Stefan
