Thread Name: The versatility of the Anglo Concertina
Subject: RE: The versatility of the Anglo Concertina
It was mainly due to the interest in the "Rosbif Waltz" mentioned on this site that made me ring Graham of Roots Records to see if there was any records in stock of the old album and he, during the conversation, reminded me of this project, I had talked to him about ten years before (and John Kirkpatrick ten years before that).It was his idea that the Rosbif Waltz should be included on this collection.
I am sure Chris and some of you may remember that on an early
John Kirkpatrick`s "Jump at the Sun" LP he played a classical piece called "Gigue"(pronounced Jig so John tells me).This to me is one of the finest bits of Anglo playing I have ever heard.I am pleased to inform you that John is re recording this piece for the collection.
