A Remarkable Young Anglo Player
cplayer replied to adrian brown's topic in Concertina Videos & Music
Very well played indeed.I would also add that the tune is notated in John Kirkpatrick book of tunes.I think he played it on piano and than aranged it for the Anglo. So good to see a talented young player. Bryan -
Sad news.John repaired my jeffries concertina with new bellows in 1981 it has never let me down. R.I.P John cplayer.

I have a 38 button jeffries which I got from hobgoblins in 1978,I sold my 5 string banjo to fund this. and have played this since this time,It had a rebuild and new bellows in 1980 by John Holeman and has had no problems since that time its played every day and has been played in many of the EU country's I also have a 1905 wheatstone 40 button anglo which I have owned for about 15 years nice concertina,layout a different to the jeffries. but what would we do without them? all the best c player -
