My brother, who is a great keyboard player, started out on accordion. He had a rock band in the late 60's doing Sam the Sham and other hits of the time on accordion. His his name on the bellows and costumed up and all - he was Lord Louie of Lord Louie and the Lads. Very 60's. He now plays in the Legends of Rock show in Las Vegas and still plays a mean squeeze box. Here in Seattle is one of the USA's premier Accordion makers -Petosa's Accordions. He has some MIDI units that are pretty incredible. The modern Accordion is a great piece of technology. Here's a link to one of their MIDI units: http://www.petosa.com/accordions/s-2000.shtml -J On Sep 25, 2006, at 6:37 AM, Bakis Sirros wrote: > hello florian, > hey, i did not know that! > i also play the accordion! > it's the first instrument i played, back when i was 9 > years old... > i still play it on holidays, quite rarely. > best regards, > Bakis. > > > > --- Florian Anwander <Florian.Anwander@consol.de> > wrote: > >> Hi David >> >>> Mr. Doepfer. >>> I was just woundering other then the synthesizer >> you have created, what are some other hardware >> synths if any that you enjoyas much as your own if >> not more? >>> , access, macbeth, synthesizer.com - just to >> name a few? >> >> As far as I know, the only other instrument that >> Dieter Doepfer owns is >> an accordion (as far as I know a styrian style).
