During a 1989 family vacation in Newfoundland, my parents videotaped my Great Uncle Leo playing his accordion. Here are all the different locations & angles they utilized:
 |
| The corner of a room! |
 |
| The corner of a different room! I know it's a different room because... |
 |
| ...this floor is carpeted & needed the foot-tapping boards brought along. |
 |
| With the Atlantic Ocean in the background! |
 |
| Greenery in the background! |
 |
| A dam (?) in the background! |
 |
| On a car, with the ocean, greenery, the dam (?), & me in an acid-washed jean jacket in the background! |
 |
| In a chair, next to me & my Mom! |
 |
| From this angle! |
 |
| And that angle! |
 |
| In front of a house, with his audience behind him! |
After watching this hour of footage, 2 things became clear: My Great Uncle Leo could really play that accordion...& he was a really, really good sport.
