Billy McComiskey plays Button Accordion

[blumenthol]

Gotta say, he doesn't just play the song well - he feels the song well - as well. I just bought my first Paolo Soprani button accordion. The makers of these seemed to take a special dedication and standard in these instruments.

HELLO THERE TO YE ALL, AND GOOD LUCK FROM EIRE.......PJ

[GDAEDADGAD]

Loved it...thanks. Up the box.

[Midisqueeze]

Great job. I enjoyed it very much.

I've just bought a red Paolo Soprani needing work, I want to replace the reeds with B/C tuning. Anyone know where you can get quality reeds in the UK?

[mistermucky17]

Paolo Sopranis are classed as either red, or 'grey', even though there are many shades. It's like horses, a pure white horse is still classed as a 'grey'.

@mistermucky17 red all the way ;)

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing your talent!

[boxplayer2]

i think their stating that comment on the fact that the accordions grill is gray and that the grill is half of the accordion in this case

[mkmkjkjk]

i suppose i would have never thought of the grill as the colour of the accordion but a suppose tht just a matter of opinion

The celluloid on the accordion itself is grey, this particular instrument has just darkened with age (also the lighting makes it look darker).

Fantastic! What a master musician! Would you like to come to Athens Greece and play for us? I used to work in the Irish Embassy here and we have a great St. Patrick's Day party every year at the Embassador's house! Some great Irish pubs too! I'll even buy the first round!

[lorgain2]

Great playing Billy, that accordion sounds so crisp and clear, a master has been at work and I may add two master musicians.

[catmelodeon]

Lovely music. Great, unique sound off that box too!!

[Stargreened]

That's great playing there. Martin did a great job on those reeds.
