Terrorist sympathisers. Shame on you.

Beautiful music

Beautiful Slow Air by James Scott Skinner, Charlie. Must be over 50 years since I discovered his grave in Allanvale Cemetery.

Well played. Lovely sound.

Hello my name is Andreas economopoulos and I would recommend anybody else especially who have disabilities like me to watch your video on how to properly adjust straps so that your recording is comfortable on you no matter what your disability or wait or back problem is and of course for me and those with disabilities I probably would go for those last straps that you showed that they come in two parts one for the top and one for the bottom around the back thank you very much.

Oh, Ta. I have absolutely no problem playing triplets with two different notes. It's the triplets on one note that does me in. Thank you heaps for this - I have not had a teacher - it is a bit hard out in the bush in Australia.

Perfect💕

Very nostalgic ❤thank you for music

Certainly one of the best renditions ❤ and beautiful video makes it very special..

Lovely video, Charlie and Barbara. God bless you both..

Thanks for the channel. The song was hard to locate. You sell accordion sheet music.? Want to buy. I’m 2nd yr student. (Probably can’t play it.). Yes, pls do more.

I love it!

Great tune love that kind of music

Glè-mhath!

Ah, the classic radio thriller "The Dark Island", Robert Barr's, 'Jim Nicholson & Grant'. Espionage in the Outer Hebredies. A visit to 'Benbecula' and the Outer Isles is on the 'bucket list'!

Dear Charlie...well played.The album you named(RSCDS Originally Ours ,...compilation by George Meikle) is in my collection.But...as you know..... does not run over book 45 if I recall correctly..Meanwhile there 've been added 10 books. Meikle is the leader of the Lothian SDB.I have one LP of them(Lismor Label) plus one CD(presumably on the HRM Label(William Crawford of Highlander Music.from whom I have made numerous orders from Holland.) Yes...lots of CD's of this genre are not available in several European countries,as you know. Yoy know..the thing is......only very great labels are (such as EMI Parlophone and later Waverley as vynil labels)were available,provided you had a valid cataloge so you could submit title and artist(s),prior ordering.haha..in Holland it would take round 6 months before getting the item.(!!!)Only the large department stores in the big Dutch towns had a collection with available folk music.(their own import) So ..maybe clear to you....from the 50s on I had great strain to get hold of the stuff,by listening once learned from the 810 MW (AM) BBC Scottish Home Service. And so..my listening to SDM started, struggling on the very weak transmitter of this station.(crackles and fadings and in summer time even nothing!!) However..I learned about the weekly( mon,wen,and saturday) broadcasts and also from the BBC Scottish Variety Orchestra,leader Dennis McConnel,and conductor Jack Leon.This orchestra was a great inspiration to me.They started 1949 and operated till mid 60s,the end of the common Light Orchestra Period.Teit program was in monday night,called"Music On The Move". Striking was,that I weekly heard less and less tapes from the orchestra,let alone a live broadcast.that already was part of the past.Wondering...what was going ON there? Well..the answer to this question I was to hear during my first visit to Aberdeen.It said by a street musician,that BBC was interferring and wanted to get rid of the accordions.. And later by other friends in Edinburgh it was confirmed,in order to promote their Celtic CONFECTIONARIES as it was called by the initiated.As a result, when BBC would have their way....accordions should be BANNED.Good riddance!! However.......... Suppose,you know about this story,Charlie?!And that is the reason,why (during the milennium period) so many good and authentic tunes were not being played anymore by SDB's and "locked up in the cupboard."Inly the mist midern stuff,band A played the compositions of band B. I have written to Aberdeen about this. But I think BBC have lost the battle. Although..the scene never will get that big as in Canada,US,Australia and New Zealand.For the simpel reason...they never were victim of BBC's commercial pressure. Must tell you.....one of my best friends passed away,the1st of August last year. at Aberdeen. A great loss for me...And,...you know him!(....)!having had contact with him for 12 years about comments about the SDB's.(Take The Floor) Kindest regards Shandfan

Lovely rendition of Life in the Finnish Woods. Thanks for posting. :)

They wis howlin in the kitcchen like a caravan of tinnkies, my uncle used to sing this to me when I was a wee boy in Wick

Wow! this brings back memories. My family had a Dunblane Hydro album from around 1977. On it was this piece played by the late Tommy Ford, a stunning accordionist. I always loved it and still count on it on being one of my favourite pieces if music. Thanks for playing it so well and posting.

It's awesome !

My true ancestry HOME even though I was born in Turriff and lived my whole life other than travelling in England the north east is still my home thank you for a great song and a great video

Bra tune

Beautiful and so is the video

Just wonderful to hear this lovely performance ❤

Admittedly, Ah'm biased, but honestly, this is my favourite version of this great song ever ... Silly Wizard set a high bar, but the quality of sound and expression on Charlie's singing win the day .... however, let that not overshadow the instrumentation - all played by Charlie himself ... a good job well done ;)

A Lovely tune Charlie, you both played it well.

Brilliant .

Yup, that's a bonny one. Thanks for putting it up.

I hear about how the Irish how they were starving yes the were so was the people scotland we was the same sheep was put before us thats why we have a bond

Did you like Dermot o Briens playing and ability David

Excellent, some accordionists in Mexico and Texas also cover musettes, they are beautiful 🎶

Great vibes. I see Brandon on the left. Regards from Melbourne.

Sheet music for this tune available here for free 😎 charlieabel.com/piece/oor-lost-days/

I really liked the strong master accordion sound you used. A lot of players( me included )start this off with a very soft flute sound, but I will now change this to a stronger one. I also like the way you put a gentle wee lift into your tunes, it gives a Braw lilt. Thank you, from Ken in Scotland.
