Fun Fact: if you watch carefully when L. W. is playing his accordion, you'll notice he doesn't use his left hand fingers on any of the buttons.. reason: he never learned how.
Here it looks like he is using his left hand starting at the 9:17 mark or so. Usually when on camera playing the accordian he's positioned to to favor his right side and you can see his left hand is not being used. But here sure looks like he's playing the buttons. lol
@@kenqwe04. On occasion, Myron Floren did the same thing, depending on what the band was playing. But Lawrence rarely played his bass keys. Sometimes, both were harmonizing with the band, using treble keys only. On this number on this show, Lawrence did play his bass
This is real pure music.
Glad you like it.
Isn't great to see these shows again.
I hope you mean "Isn't IT great......." ha,ha
