Hi, This is my Dad, Edgar Dixon. He passed away in March 2009. I recenly found this video of him playing at Belford accordian club. His hero was Jimmy shand and he had the pleasure of 'jamming' with him and his music is based on his tunes and style of playing. The button key accordian is a much more difficult instrument to play over the piano key and the sound is much richer.
I would be obliged if anyone could name the tunes he is playing, as I don't realy have a clue.
Thanks
This set Starts of with the A song called the Lord lovetts Lament and its a hard song to play,The next one is The Thistle of Scotland which is a lovely song to play and sound better on a Shand Morino,The last song is a grand way to end a set and its called Come along.Hope this was Helpfull.
