What a genius, but does anyone know what became of McGuire, i have an accordion of his which is now worth a small fortune, a beautiful silver paulo soprano, 4 vice, he sold it because the buttons were too close or something
THE box player of all time. None can touch him. Some accompanists should take note of Anne Conroy's playing and stay in the background where they belong and not playing the guitar like a bloody snare drum!!!
God I'm old enough to remember Joe when he hadn't got a beard. The Best Irish Box Player ever..............I remember a session in Donegal with the late Johnny Doherty....what a night. ♪♫
@podge0006 You're an asshole! You clearly dont know what or who you're talking about! Idiot! Dont comment on something you clearly know nothing about!
While I agree with christophigus to an certain extent, I have two words in response: Mairtin O'Connor. Trying to compare those two would be like splitting atoms but the fact is that Mairtin is definitely right up there with Burke!

Why does he play the bass and make no sound?
bramstokerful 2 years ago
It blends in really well with the music, so thats why you cant really notice it, but if u listen carefully you can hear it
