I like the bandoneon... especially when in Astor's hands...




Ah, I'd not seen a fingering chart for the buttons before. Each plays two notes depending upon whether you are pushing or pulling on the bellows.

What an impossible instrument to master (not that any are easy).

Jack Johnson live from Paris - this always reminds me of the guys that sometimes play on Pont Neuf or elsewhere along the banks of the Seine.

What's the difference between an accordion and an onion?

No one cries when you cut up an accordion.
