Your original post was negative, that is indisputable.
as for remarks about brains,I had the brains to choose an instrument "the concertina" of which there were not many exponents, I then developed my own style of song accompaniment, I could not possibly be confused with the two other main uk exponents of song on English Concertina, Killen or Turner, or with anyone else.
