    I'll second what pbb said, anyjazz, and add
    "the trumpet likewise, unless you are Miles Davis". ;-)

    Gee. Nobody likes the accordion, or "cordeen" as Pete Barbutti would have it.

    Now, now a concertina, that's different.

    Now I remember a time on a sailboat called "True Love" I was accompanying myself on the concertina and singing to Grace Kelly ... wait a minute, that wasn’t me, that was Bing Crosby.
