  • A real treat from JIMBO playing three great tunes - 'May Reel' Paul Sartin - 'Time will End' (J.McLane) from the playing of the RANDOM Band and finally the 'Bacca Pipes Jig' and proving like other melodeon legends like Saul Rose that having a few beers sometimes does not stop you getting into the "Melodeon Zone"
    Played on a battered Saltarelle DG Connemara 3 Melodeon @ 1am in the morning after 10 pints of real ale :-) Enjoy! ... Derek

    I’ve listened to this loads of times over about 5 years, whenever I need cheering up! What a brilliant musician. Thank you loads.

    My all time favourite clip on RUclips. How this cannot bring a smile to anyone's face and a tingle of the spine, I do not know. Awesome.

    I'm so fucking glad i discovered English and Irish folk music-or at least decided to explore it, they're two fantastic genres!

    Brilliant! Best bit is the gap with reverb near to the end! Real feeling and exciting syncopation. Well done!!

    there is something special about diatonics - they add so much more lift to a tune. PAs are either loud or quiet, but melodeons seem to be able to manage both at the same time

    May Reel is just a thing of total beauty.

  • @Wotsitorlabart

    'May Reel' was actually written by the late much lamented Paul Sartin and his fiddle version (with Paul Hutchinson on piano accordion) can be found on the 'Belshazzar's Feast' album 'Drop the Reed'.

      Thank you for the info , and I’ll update the description to reflect this. I (and Jimbo) learnt it from my good friend Saul Rose when he was playing it in Faustus around 2006/2008 ( it’s on their first cut album) and Paul was a great friend too.

      Yes, I noticed after posting that other videos name check Faustus as being the source of the tune. I will now check out their version which I imagine was the inspiration for the many melodeon versions on RUclips.
      Cheers.

    It could have been more than 10 pints .. it was a new years eve , after 1 am ... i (DTN) had drunk the same and could barely get a scale out of the box! ... Jimbo is a freak i reckon .. he just enters another zone where the melodeon playing still works... i fail after about 5 pints! DTN

    FUN! FUN! FUN! It doesn't matter if it's 1am, you've got to play when you want to. It iches in my fingers at the most awkward times but i've got to keep the "noise" down after 22:00. :( Anyway i liked what you played.....great stuff! I'll try to get that tune in my head and have a go at it. Thanks for posting.

    Jimbo - what a fantastic way to start the new year - so far have only heard you playing with DTN on the excellent duets you did - I don't know any of the tunes you are playing but very clear you are making a lot more of them than the dots would indicate -if you do ever post the tabs then very interested but great playing and thanks-
    All the best NIgel

    Whey hey! Come and play here in Northern Italy! They don't reckon we've got decent food, or decent box players in England and as I'm feeling a bit homesick even after 5 years I'd love to have some immoral support (epecially at 2.30 in the morning)! I nearly joined in with keyless flute and bones but I've lost me lip. :-)

  • @DerekTheNutter
    @DerekTheNutter  11 лет назад +4

    If you have the 'want' to learn it and even a little musical ability ... then its a great instrument that develops quickly ... easily transportable and doesn't need batteries :-)
    You would need to have opportunities to play it with others to really get stuck in .. but remember the Diatonic Melodeon is in fixed keys .. i.e a DG box gives D/ G / Am / Em and a basic bit of C and A ... if you need other keys .. its another box .. then you get MAD ' Melodeon Acquisition Disease' cheers Derek

    Woah... hats off to that man - beer makes my playing pretty tricky! Absolutely great tunes too - I was expectiing a few slip ups with that amount of beer in the blood but all the wonderful twiddles and stops were in there - left hand is mesmerising! I reckon you were in the Good Intent session at this year's Rochester Sweeps fest, shame you didn't play much there! Do you, DTN and Jimbo both play with Hook Eagle Morris?

    I don't know if you've got your melodeon yet. If not and you still want to go for it I suggest you buy a DG and find your nearest morris side. There is bound to be someone to get you going. And yes, they are a great instrument that sounds good from the off.
