Nice medley...
I enjoyed it.
BTW... you video ends at 2:07 but continues on for 3 more minutes in darkness & silence...
I thought I had lost my hearing & gone blind smile

Hi Graham,

to be honest: I can't really tell apart what makes your versions of thos songs appeal to me so much, but they really, really do. You're one heckuvan instrumentalist - I always enjoy your playing a lot.

Cheers,

Stefan

Stefan, thanks so much you're so kind. I guess it's my love of music that comes out in my playing, I was never a good sight reader so playing by ear most of the time means you play from the heart

Love these fun old classics and you played them beautifully Graham. Hmmm, it's strange you're having so much dead space - have you double checked that your audio track is ending where it should?

Nice one Graham! Solid progression of all the different timbres and the clarinet is a great touch with this. Well done!

Hi Josie, lovely to hear from you again. Thanks for the comment. High time we did another collab I reckon. Love the oldies myself whether it's pop/country, jazz or classics

Man, you have some serious chops on that accordion! Sounding good, Graham!

Frankie Yankovic ain't got nothing on you. Wow, that was great! I love your accordion playing. You are the Brian May of the squeezebox.

That was just great! Love the mix of the accordion with the RTs...

I enjoyed too, Graham.

After the two minute mark, perhaps you needed to put another shilling into the electricity meter? grin

I would if I could but I can't as our electric meter only takes pre paid cards PSML
