Re: Greezy McGill Who Are You

Nope, CB, I'm not that guy. Never even came close to being classically trained in music. I'm just a smart guy, part of the latch key Cajun generation, that was left out in the cold to figure it out on my own. And that's exactly what I did. I'm not pompous nor conceited. Just trying to lay it down like it should have been laid down long time ago by my forefathers, and trying to tell it to people that really don't want to hear it, and perhaps can't handle the information. I wonder how many from this discussion will actually learn to play in "6" different playing positions on the Cajun accordion. I fear it will not take hold too quickly, lol. But hey, for those that were interested in knowing, its all been chronicled. As long as the bravenet is here, it is written in stone as far as I'm concerned. As long as I'm alive, there is a guy who can explain it, and physically show it to another. Maybe, I'll be able to personally pass it on to someone of the next generation of Cajun accordion players and it will be preserved. Point is, no one before tried to explain it, they weren't aware of it, they were aware of it, but wanted to keep it secret, or they didn't know how to teach it. That's all over now. The CAT IS OUT THE BAG!
