Re: Re: Re: Re: Queen Ida

Yes, you are correct, she changes accordions during the drum break.

Even though she is getting old and does have another accordion player helping out, I watched her show last year at the Ardenwood festival and she changes accordions in the middle of the song during the drum break.

Thanks for that, DP. I thought it must be the case. It's a great track, and that key change really gives it a charge. Wonder if it would sound as good, just changing keys on the same accordion? Probably not, if she sees fit to change boxes.

Thanks again for settling it for me.

You have got a great ear to pick that up.. audio sleuth ??

How many of us would have actually thought that there was a box change mid-song..

You should win something for this! hehe

It becomes apparent when you try to play it along with the CD. I'm not really that clever - but you knew that, you silver tongued flatterer!

How was New Year on the rez?

I took a chance and ordered CDs from Rock-a-Bye and Canyon. Got 'em both. I have to have the grin surgically removed after listening to them.
