Gerry reminds me of my Great Grandpa. He used to play the same kind of Irish accordion every Christmas. Thanks a lot for posting.

Look at the easy, comfortable hands and fingers. From box to pipes, whistle, whatever, the only way to play fast, expressive and into old age, is to learn your technique with easy hands. Don't try to fight the fingers: you can't possibly win. Thanks for sharing this piece.
