Re: Come, Let Us Solve The Mystery of the Bb Flat Accordion

Melo, Randy falcon applied or sent in the application to patent the Dual key accordion in August of 1990. That means that he had already built one before that. And it works out that Zydeco player Beau Jacques and John Delafouse started recording with a regular B flat and either 1991 or 1992. Now you're this well, Zydeco players almost always play in the fifth. That means that if they are on a B flat accordion they are almost always playing in the key of F. The steel player Randall Foreman told me that Walter mouton's voice was changing with age and he needed to sing in a key key that would allow him to not strain so much to sing. So he got with Randy falcon and bought him and accordion one step down from a C, the B flat
