  5. I think you should give it a try most string players can offer realy good back up to a tune. I played in a small barn dance band for two years ,with key board and 5 string banjo ( I played anglo concertina) not all but some of the tunes gave me quite a buzz.The banjo can give a tune quite a lift just watch the dancers feet.

    While this may not be quite your style mixing wiht other instruments will enhance your playing.

  6. many thanks for all your efforts concertina fans.the instrument in question has 39 buttons and is in the keys of g/d I think the date is about 1890 ish,I have had the concertina for about 26 years it came via hobgoblin and i had it restored by john holman.and its been in use every day since then.so I wait with intrest any other information.

  7. hi concertina players

    I did ask this question some time befor with one or two answers. I have a 39 button jefferies anglo on the reed plates is incribed bill Ambrose 11 fordens road Liverpool. with the band name of "the ivy band" .one reply was that it was a marching band .and that he may be able to find more information.

    I have been unable to recall who the member was, I would be pleased if he could contact me again as looking at maps of liverpool I have been unable to find fordens road,can any one from liverpool help?
