Thanks for the link, John. I had visited it some time ago, but I couldn't figure out myself how to purchase those scores... there is no explanation on how to do it.

Here is a Colombian guy playing a very popular Guarania style tune, but he does it differently as youll hear on a diatonic accordion. I believe the second part of the medley is a Venezuelan tune.
I have a (Scottish) cousin who used to live in Caracas, but now lives in California. His wife is Mexican, and prefers to live in the USA, whereas Jim would rather live in Mexico! He doesnt play any musical instruments at all.

Glad you got it. Sometimes I take a long time to make a point and sometimes I never actually get there.
Mo, eventually became a bus inspector after his English had improved. He was a great little guy, but ended up getting fired for using the inspectors van for delivering Pakistani food to his relatives every weekend. The early shift guys on Monday mornings complained about the reek of curry, and they set a trap for him. He had been warned on several occasions, but Mo being Mo, thought he was invincible.
When he was promoted to driving he took a double deck bus with 80 passengers on board through a big construction site and got the bus stuck in the mud. The passengers all had to wade through the mud to get out of the site, and it took the tow truck an hour to get the bus out. Mo just got out of the cab and grinned at everybody. His Indian conductor, Basil, had fallen asleep and never noticed that Mo had made a wrong turn. Basil used to work double shifts regularly, and was notorious for falling asleep on the job. Thankfully, he wasnt interested in driving, as drivers had to take one day off in every 14, and Basil wanted to work every day. The money was sent home to his family in the Punjab, to buy agricultural machinery.
Wheres the accordion connection? Basil played the harmonium in his spare time (at least 7 minutes in a day), and said it was called the poor mans accordion in the Punjab. Honest, boss!
