this is what is so cool about Accordion
and accordionists

our big boxes that can be played any chord and any key
that enable melody and accompaniment and rhythm all
together

not afaid to try any song that catches your ear, heart,
imagination... we like it we go for it...

not that every song we figger out how to play is
good enough to play FOR other ears (lol)

but how many other instruments give that kind
of freedom and potential to their human half ?

Ventura,

Of course, you're correct about all of the nice qualities of
accordions and accordionists.It also explains why Ike chose a song
that was being played on a fine example of a mechanical musical
instrument. Let's face it, organs, pianos, and mechanical musical
instruments can do all of the things an accordion can do. But with
the exception of music boxes, try lugging them around :)

Take care.
