Leo Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) Hint! Hint! There is another one from the same "concertinist". I think it's from the same movie. Can you find it? If you do you will hear a "Big Noise" Thanks Leo Edited December 19, 2007 by Leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is is possible, it's the true video of the tune on the "recorded links tune page"? My meager understanding of history is that Stan bought a concertina for his wife and played one, but for the life of me, I don't remember where I heard that before.

Ummm, like maybe in the second of the two links I gave? I wonder if it was one of these that Stan was "playing" (upside down!), it's even got a hinged end for putting the bomb inside: Edited December 20, 2007 by Stephen Chambers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do you will hear a "Big Noise" You must mean "Mairzy Doats" then! I'm curious as to who is actually playing the music that Stan is miming in that clip. Sounds to me like it's a duet. Could it be Percy Honri, or even grandson Peter (who would have been about 15 years old when the film was released)? Or might they have found an American concertinist who could do the job? If the latter, who would it be? Does the film have credits for such things? Edited to correct the relationship between Perci and Peter. I had first indicated they were father and son. Thanks to Stephen C. for setting me right. Edited December 20, 2007 by JimLucas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
