Thread Name: Why a melodeon?
Subject: RE: Why a melodeon?
That's the trouble with melodeons - once you buy one you almost instantly need another, a bit like Chinese food. I'm one of these crazy people who have DIFFERENT D/Gs because some tunes sound better on one than the other!!
I sometimes wish that English tunes weren't confined to G and D (yes I know about East Anglia and "C"). C and F are lovely keys to play in.

Pip Radish - am I reading you wrong or do you think Jimmy Shand was a piano accordion player? He was all buttons - definitely not to my taste either but undeniably brilliant.
