coolest old man ever

I wish i could play as good as him!!!

I have noticed that most modern players put their thumbs through the strap and then point it upward with the pad resting on the side of the keyboard. Gardiner seems to point his thumb downward, with th side of the thumb resting on the keyboard. I don,t have an instrument, but playing "air melodion" his way seems better.

:o) ! Depends on who plays it !
You can't get better than Bobby.
-
some good. luckily the very capable guitar player [no doubt] was off the mic a bit so we could hear Bobby's mastery without the pub-pleasing pop music chord changes [or the droney DADGAD] that are now a big part of "Celtic " music, interfering ..this is Irish music at its unadulterated best.

fuckin commercials!

that melodeon sound great. Why hohner viena is undervalued? it's rectified?

Man's right, announcer's panned to the left n the playings all on the right. Bit irritating, but class playing none the less

Actually Bobby has probably recorded more albums than most Irish box players (with the exception of maybe Joe Burke and Jackie Daly), starting in the US with Memories of Clare (1962), as well as Old Country Dances from Ireland and The Fields Are Greener There in the 1960s, then back in Ireland Bobby Gardiner at Home (1979), The Best of Bobby Gardiner (1982), The Master's Choice (1989) and The Clare Shout (1998), making 7 albums - all of which I've got.
