I'm sort of bored lately. Somebody throw out an exciting tune. One you really enjoy or is special to you on Anglo.

If you don't play Pigeon On the Gate, I'll recommend that one as somewhat exciting.

I currently like 'Joe Ryan's' or 'Auchadon House', I thinks it's called - 1st track on his Buachaill Dreoite recording. Great swing in it and good for going down the notes..

What a great voice!
Just what a great voice and demeanor. Seems like normal personality also.
Interenstingly, he looks like someone from the 50es, some sort of remake. So I researched a little. Nope, guy from the 80es. Remarkable.
Actually I offered the videos because I think those Russian songs would sound pretty well on concertina. Those are not folk songs, but written for the movies by professionals, and it means the music is possible to find. And for a Brit on a cold island they would make a nice addition to otherwise overly monotonic repetore or British/Irish/Scottish "tunes".
Yes, yes, they are oh so very different, but still some Russian flavor would be an interesting change.
What? No takers? Well then, I'll take it back.

Oh, I see. Boy there is the whole sub-culture on the Net.
You guys have way too much time on your hands. Still remember Yakov Smirnov, wow!
He was a laughing stock in Russian Community, his jokes were so lame, that I even bought the book. Just to laugh at how bad it was.
Back to topic, great "concertina" song from Leo, I wonder if he actually meant "accordion". And good voice too, just like in this one.

I don't think so. Coming back from the sea to his girlfriend possibly in Jamaica?? unsure.gif

Trusting as I am, when will I learn. You picked up on that one pretty quick cool.gif

Thanks
