He played ''Searching for a soldier's grave'' most nights 2000. At some
point in the UK he plays 'Masters of War.''There's a lot of people who
play 'John Brown'' up and down the UK. I wouldn't mind him doing a cover
of '' And the band played Waltzing Matilda'' and if we were really
lucky, if great good fortune shone on us, since he's got a zydeco
drummer we might hear the accordian somewhere down the line.

since Larry seems to play every instrument under the sun, does he play
the accordion? I can think of some really nice things we could get to
hear! If this is really the guy who played with Wingless Angels and
all those zydeco outfits, could be interesting.

When Bob's wanted an accordion player recently he's drafted in a guy
called Brian Mitchell, as on Return To Me from The Sopranos soundtrack
album.

Your posts recently have been incredibly stupid.
This one takes the biscuit. Sort it out.

The trance state of an accordionist. The first industrial instrument
laid out & assembled on a line. Amazed me for years nobody's used it
more. The rattle of Schulz's bottling lines in your ears, the stench of
the abbattoir,wander out for a beer there's a man in the corner with an
accordion and the waitress tells you she used to be a trapeze artist.
I'm as transfixed as the next when the
Cajun Aces are jamming &
Mike Hurst is leading on'Testify' looking around at the crowd waiting
for someone to start
hollering. Burt Lancaster as Elmer Gantry. Some tasty UK accordionists
around. Paul Hill. Malcolm Manning from the Aces. Mike Hurst. Heard Mike
the other week, duo, Denny from 'Somebody's Brother' on guitar. A Sunday
afternoon blink
you'd miss it. A funeral slow 'You ain 't going nowhere.' Slower than a
funeral.The box
pulled long. Some moments thought I was listening to Dough Sahm's
'Tennessee Blues,'' then kept seeing Dennis Hopper Blue Velvet intoning
'In Dreams.'' Nowhere sounded like nowhere. You ain't going nowhere.
The Guardian reviewed a pile of accordion releases the other week,
players around the globe. Sticks in my mind a Copenhagen jazz club
autumn 1998, not the Montmartre where
Dexter Gordon used to play to dawn, that closed. The kids have wandered
off. I wandered in waiting for a plane. It's crowded. Sunday night jam.
There's a guy at the table up at the front,
thin, 5 foot six, can't keep his legs still, about twenty years
old, black curly hair, Jewish angel face, I think it can't be, I
rub my eyes,he's holding this accordion, he can't keep still, he just
wants to get up
there, I wonder how it happens, Sun Ra said outta space starts on the
street corner, someone else said every face amalgams out of what's
passing through, here's a 20 year who only wants to play, he's a double,
at last it's his chance, all I catch is Oslo in the intro a group of
people shouting, a generation older the drums, bass, piano waiting for
him he plays be-bop, hard driving be-bop. He plays like he's going to
shake every
apple off the tree. At the end of the first number he's already into the
next the others thinking of taking a pause. A street away, a large blown
up face, a record store has the front of 'Live 1966' looking at you,
here's the younger double
playing be-bop on an accordion. This world can go anywhere.
I'm crossing at the lights at the bottom of Cheetham Hill Road
remembering Dylan here 1998, a big grin on my face thinking of 2002.
Best regards.
