The left hand on a accordian has two rows of bass notes and if it has more rows they are chords. here is some info and a layout from Wikipedia: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Accordion/Left_hand

The accordian used here in Portugal has buttons for the right hand instead of a keyboard and I guess is more difficult to play.

Great to hear from you again Bill, but please don't get jealous if send a great big cyber hug to the lovely Dondra because I am sending a cyber 'man hug' to you too. smile
No problems with your communication and 'He's Got The Whole Word In His Hands' is a song I know well as it is one the two songs I send a student home with after their first lesson (the other being 'Tom Dooley' as they are both good songs with just two chords). Strangely enough most Portuguese students know He's Got The Whole World as it was used in the TV advert for the Portuguese electicity company and I will usually insert my students name in the 'He's got you and me brother/sister' line.
Take care, Roger.

You definitely can have more than one songbook and opening a second account to have a second, as you have found out, can lead to difficulties. If you have used the same e-mail address for both there will be complications but if you used a different one I can hopefully sort it for you. Please write to me privately with both account names and e-mails used and we will see what we can do.

I have never used anything other than paper but some friends of mine use an i-pad and have a scrolling programme. You have to set the tempo (in B.P.M.) of the piece for it to scroll at the right speed. I find it a/ hard to read (I really like my bold print A4 paper) and b/ difficulty knowing where I am when I have looked away as the place I was looking has moved.

Roger, my two choices are Love Song and Lullaby.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

As everyone else can add songs and you cannot, it is not a general problem so you will have to be a little more specific to enable us to help you. Please state, step by step, what you are doing so we know where the difficulty lies.

That is a bummer. I bet your buddies were disappointed with no music from the minstrel after day one.

John, I will ask you the same as Pamesposito. Do you have any apostrophies or anything other than letters and numbers in your song books name? Apparently this can cause a problem and as mine is "Roger's Songbook" it is causing my difficulty.

There appears to be a bug here too, I will contact Per about this also.

I have just completed the old dodge of clearing cookies and restarting windows but no good I am afraid. I can get as far as here:

https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1826/42198031435_11c16e7919_b.jpg

but then I cannot change what songbook to move it to nor move to the "Temp (79)" shown. I can click on the arrow beside "Test book (9)" to select another songbook and move away from this page but nothing within the actual 'move song' contol box works.

Sorry, you are right. Not wanting to actually move a song I did not try to complete the operation before my previous reply. There does appear to be a bug here so I have reported it to Per who will no doubt sort it as soon as he gets time.

Thank you for pointing this out.

If you look down the right hand side of the song (photo below) you will see the number of versions and use the plus and minus to view the different versions. Please rate them.

I hope that helps.

Graham, I had never heard this song before and really enjoyed it. It was only when I was writing my comment that I noticed it is an original of yours so super well done to you and your band.

Roger

Good one Mojo, award yourself some extra pickles for that. lol

Well done Julian and congratulations on your graduation.

I understand that your grandpa, who is obviously very proud of you, is teaching you guitar; a great hobby, which helps you get invites to all the best parties and something that impresses the ladies so keep it up.

Has Mojo converted from pickles to English tea and cakes???
I saw this the other day and had a little chuckle to myself:

Hi Bill,

No need to worry about this. There have been many changes but they are behind the scenes and Chordie should look, and behave, pretty much as she always does. The biggest thing that we Moderators have noticed is that there is far less spam getting through.

The main reason for announcing a major change is so that Per can get 'bug' reports then, if anything is not working as it should, he can set to putting it right.
