Thanks for posting, I like the sound of these group. In the very early sixties, I played in a wedding band with an 8:50 accordion. Party halls usually didn’t have decent pianos back in New Jersey. The accordion worked out pretty well.

Great stuff. Are there other examples of jazz music featuring the accordion pre-1950? I only know of Art Van Damme’s Cocktail Capers album (1949), and a song by The Ali Baba Trio feat. Valaida Snow called “Patience and Fortitude”-which also has a video available on RUclips.

Unfortunately I can't think of much pre-1950 off the top of my head, maybe Leon Sash?

Hey, thanks for watching! I don't have these uploaded here at the moment but maybe try Stan Kenton - A Presentation of Progressive Jazz, Lennie Tristano - Crosscurrents, and The Brothers Sandole - Modern Music from Philadelphia.
