The old Rod Stewart hit written by Gavin Sutherland. The original was in B major but I've moved it up to the much friendlier key of C major. I'm playing the tune on a Jackie English concertina and I've added some guitars, synth, drums & percussion. My lovely wife recorded the bass guitar part!

Beautiful tune played on a Jackie English Concertina which you can buy from Concertina Connection in the U.S. or Red Cow Music in Yorkshire, here in the UK.

Elise versus Troubadour Hayden Duet Concertina Comparison.
Переглядів 298Місяць тому
ERRATUM - at 2:17 I say that the Troubadour is only 5.2 inches across the flats. In fact it's 6.25 inches. It's actually 5.25 end to end with the bellows closed.

    I upgraded a year ago and never looked back. Agree about the strap length, added some leather myself. Paid for the better bellows and it’s expressiveness is sooo sweet. It’s wonderful that Concertina Connection does trade-ins.

    Thanks for a great lesson. looks like the buttons are organized similar to my diatonic harmonica. The harmonica holes are organized to play a C chord on the blow first three holes ( C E G ) and a G chord on the draw first three holes ( G B D ), Is the Anglo concertina the same ?

      It very much depends upon where you are in the world. Hayden duet concertinas are very hard to come buy but the Elise is a very good budget instrument. It's available from Red Cow Music in the UK and Europe and direct from the manufacturer, Concertina Connection, in the US.

Well I’m now 22 graduated from university and playing guitar is still one of my favourite things to do, although I’m definitely a lot better now 😂 I just wanted to say thank you for igniting my passion for playing the guitar as it brings me a great deal of peace to this day.

    Do indeed like the sound of the troubadour more in the immediate sound comparison. I have played an Elise and have the EXACT same thoughts and feeling with those first couple notes on the left hand - takes a bit to make them fire - and when playing them with other notes on the right hand the C (on the push in particular) is lacking, although it seems to fire better when other notes are played at the same time for some reason. Other than that, the Elise has been great in my limited experience - but i Keep wanting to try a troubadour or peacock!

    I picked up one of these today for $100 CAD. Definitely much older than yours, Les. I’m sure the original owner had new bellows installed at some time while she owned it because they are in pristine shape. I bought it from her 80-something year old niece who never got the hang of playing it after the old aunt passed away. I really appreciate your lesson here. A wonderful way to get started.
