Luckily I saw them at the National Folk Festival and then again on the Sunday at a folk club in Belper after the festival had finished.Minimum of effort but with the maximum of effect.
This is the kind of music they used to play when they first appeared on the scene. Magic stuff and I wish they would do more of it again. They seem to have gone their separate ways, and Mr Wood has recorded some very strange stuff to my taste. How many people know that the box Andy is playing was the result of going to a manufacturer to "build" his own box? He did assemble his own, but someone else had assembled one with 3 rows of bases, and Andy was so taken by it, they did a swap. So this explains why he is not playing one of his usual Castagnaris. Not a lot of people know that - boom boom.
cutting swapped just the base side with mairtin o'connor, another famous button accordionist who also took part in the course. so this particular box is mostly built by cutting himself. by the way, this building course was organised by the great emmanuel pariselle (composer, box player, singer & instrument manufacturer). boooooom! listen to cutting talking about this episode here: ruclips.net/video/YuPaBTKDEaA/видео.htmlsi=loSb6SgRupkxqKkr

@@Seibling Thanks for that. I always assumed the course was by Castagnari, because those are what Andy always plays.
@@kencroft7933 welcome. so cutting plays now with o'connor's 18 base side (3 row) and o'connor has cutting's 14 base side (2 rows).
It's all lovely, but I can't hear Chris, just Andy. Shame, I know both are fantastic musicians 😞
