GUEST,Working Radish Folklore: God's Melodeon (23) RE: Folklore: God's Melodeon 24 Nov 11

The relative historical novelty of the concertina, compared with its unimpeachable folk credibility, is only superficially surprising. The (revealed) truth is that the concertina always was the ideal folk instrument, even when it was still waiting to be invented. Until the coming of the blessed Charles, the world was in need of a concertina* - it just didn't know it yet.

*English, of course.
