Oooh, I like the tune at around 0:44! Is that one of the mazurkas?

Jeff and everyone, thaks for your positive reaction. The tune at 0.44 is called Sarahs birthday waltz, written for my daughter when she was 15. It is one of the tunes oin the accompanying tune book that contains all of these tunes ( but not arrangements) and others as well. We will be doing accordion band arrangements of some of the tunes over the coming months.. when I am little less busy with the day job...

Sounds great. I don't know anyone that owns a CD player but if you put it on streaming and sure you'll get loads of interest! Love the strings..

I have a cd player in my car which does not have Bluetooth for my phone, and when cell service is not available anyway. Much better than those new modern digital cars. Not sure if I would even call them cars.

Yikes, most people I know have CD players (does that date us? )
I think I have about 4 and all my DVD players, including those in three computers, will play CDs. It's easy to rip a CD to a digital file if you prefer that.

What scares me about streaming (especially movies) is they can go away at any time. With a "hard copy" CD and DVD library some service's whim can't take them away. I buy both CDs and DVDs often.

Fellow Accordionastas.. to answer your questions:
1) the CD is available on spotify and other streaming platforms, or, you can download it from dropbox if you send me your details etc., that is how I got it ot jeff so quickly.
2) strings are provided by RichaRd HEacock and Matt Coatsworth - 2 English folk fiddle palyers that I ahve had the pleasure to play wioth for a number of years, Slide guitar is Richard Cox Smith, again a great friend.
3) Feedback from others is that they like the CD in the car as their current favourite driving CD- good for when you are stuck in traffic jams...

To my ears the problem with downloading and streaming is the loss of fidelity due to compressions ad imperfect transmission/reception.
And when the mains electricity supply gets interrupted and/or I am away from such supply, my portable player and good headphones are there for my pleasure.

I blissfully and unabashedly own and revel in record players, cassette players, and CD players. Long Live the Tangible!

Just saw that the album is available for download on Amazon, so I snapped it up with some credit I had remaining on my account.

 

[JKJ]

The CD is apparently available from Wild Goose Studios in the UK for about $21 shipped to USA. Is it available yet in the USA?

As far as I am aware it is available through amazon, or download via spotify etc. I can send a copy over or you can download from my drop box, or uy from myself or the studio. We don't have a formal USA agent/outlet. The tunebook is only available from me as it was too difficult to find a seller for a limited book such as this. Happy to send one if youo PM me. Derek
