Gesù Bambino
Thought I would do a nice Christmas Carol. I really liked this one when I was playing thru my Christmas Fakebook. I don’t believe I ever played it before, but much of it is very familiar.… Read the rest

Atholl Highlanders
Such a great accordion piece. I downloaded a bunch of Scottish and Irish tunes. This was among them. I have had great fun playing it. Hoped to sound a little like a bagpipe in a few spots.… Read the rest
Stumbling
Stumbling. Just a fun old song. My twin Sister has been bugging me to play in the videos again. UGH So I let her take a chorus with the little Petosa. LOL Gotta keep the family happy. LOL I just thought it would be fun. I had the little Petosa out to do some sight reading and thought – why not. Words and music by Zez Confrey and published by Leo. Feist Inc. in 1922.… Read the rest
Scottish Medley
Everyone liked Bluebells of Scotland, so I thought I would do another as a Scottish Medley.
Annie Laurie, O!Whistle and I’ll Come to Ye, My Lad and Will Ye No Come Back Again?… Read the rest
‘Tis Autumn
‘Tis Autumn. I was playing thru some books to find a nice Autumn song this morning and came across this one. I thought it was really cute and decided to make a video. It feels like Autumn, yet carefree and happy. Guess that’s because it isn’t about winter. I hope you enjoy our little walk thru the leaves.… Read the rest
Inka Dinka Doo
Inka Dinka Doo – My Mom passed away three years ago on September 25 when she was 96. I was recently away camping in the rain and almost forgot this year. So I played a silly, old tune by Jimmy Durante and Ben Ryan for her. She loved to dance and would have done an old fashioned soft shoe to this.… Read the rest
Mexicali Rose – Waltz, Cha Cha and Swing
played Mexicali Rose yesterday with my Roland Digital Accordion as a swing version. Lots of comments that it is a waltz. Yes, it is a waltz and I often play it that way. BUT, the fun of playing as a soloist is you can do it anyway you want! I have great fun doing different rendition of songs.… Read the rest
Memory Played with Petosa Accordion
Memory – a beautiful song. I played it yesterday with my Roland FR 4X Digital Accordion, so I decided to play it with my Petosa acoustic accordion today. “Memory” is a show tune composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber, with lyrics by Trevor Nunn based on a poem by T. S. Eliot. It was written for the 1981 musical Cats.… Read the rest
Sleep, Girl of My Dreams, Together and For You
A few great old fashioned waltzes for a Sunday afternoon. Getting use to my new Petosa accordion. Seems perfect for these old waltzes. I hope you enjoy my medley.… Read the rest
Over Three Hills
I wanted to play a traditional waltz with my new (used) Petosa Little Pro XT. I really liked my Little Pro, but it has limited keys and reeds, although it has a great sound. I have been watching for the next larger sized, used one for a long time.… Read the rest
Yellow Bird
Yellow Bird. Still having fun with my Little Petosa. I realized I haven’t played Yellow Bird after making 227 videos. Really – we always played Yellow Bird at every job. I usually play it with a latin beat, but felt like swinging it today. Something different – something fun. musician Arthur Lyman made the song a hit in 1961.… Read the rest
