The accordion was the beat box of its day after the development of an industrial process that prices down dramatically. Shortly thereafter Mussette was born in Paris and then spread to the rest of the world. I can't find it right now, but somewhere in my musical archive is a double disc of late 19th and early 20th century accordion music from around the world. Well worth finding. Fist up, Paris, second Gardel, one of the first international film/singing stars to die tragically, and last a Fin proving that passion and the tango have little to do with one another. Enjoy your weekend.
