Just found 6 more names to add to this list: G S Morris, Victor Smith, Jack Easy, James Dickson, Tommy Dale & Walter Dale.

Sadly, they are no loner with us, but they do deserve to be remembered.

Cheers,
Dick

Yes! Afraid I've missed the development of this list so far, but Paul Connolly (who played in a band with me in the early 1990s and still lives/works/plays in Lochaber) ought to be on any list of Scots players of the English concertina...
And we in dreams behold the Hebrides.

Excellent Peter, thanks! :D :thumbsup:

On the downside, I had to remove the name Oscar St Cyr, because I learned, only today, that this was just a pseudonym for a player whose name is already on our list. However, I'm delighted to be able to add the name Paul Connolly, which keeps our total at 80 players in Scotland today.

Thanks to TomB for letting me know that Danny Dove of Gaerlockhead has recently sold his Tenor / Treble & gone over to the Dark Side ... he bought a Guitar! :boggle:

On a brighter note though, thanks to Michael Marino, for letting me know that his wife plays the English Concertina! So we’re still at 81!

Cheers,
Dick
