Speed the Plough is a widely-known folk tune written as a reel in 1799 by Edinburgh-born violinist John Moorehead.
This version is played in F on a GCF diatonic accordion (aka melodeon) made by Oakwood of Leeds.

Thanks. This and previous comments much appreciated.

I couldn't play it quite like this on a 2-row of course, or even without a couple of the specials on this box.

Hello there, I haven't seen you before! Very nice playing my friend! Very smooth and a fantastic choice of tunes. Please post more videos of your talent!

Brilliant! It is as smooth as if you played the tuine on a chromatic button accordion in style of the great Dominique Rivier (Le canal en octobre).
