The advantage of only being able to play by ear is, the sky is the limit, and as I said, you can just play out any thoughts you like, your mood up, down, it could even be a love message, you just set the tempo's beats, foxtrot, swing, rock, whatever and the speed you want.
Sometimes I set it to the piano accordions and go down memory lane, playing the Father style and all his old songs, that he used to play on his accordion at the Old Black Shack.
He could read music which I can't, but he played by ear as well.
I now have his accordion, but rarely play it, as the BK5 has it all there.
That is where I first began on his accordion, I numbered the scale in my head 1 -> 8, and the likes of Twinkle Star, I'd hunt for the note and write on paper.
I did that for around 2 others, Ba Ba Black sheep lol, after that I didn't have to write down anymore.
I may have began with the Harmonica's.
Honner - around 12, one is a set of 10 with 10 Keys and I prefer A or B other wise F
I'm not sure if that lot are multi tone, like another F that I have?
I learnt that at around age 13 and not wanting to boast, lol, I mastered them, base and all while playing, which you don't seem to see/hear, if you Google ?
You use the back of your tongue for base, like 1 2 3 waltz or whatever , my Father used to as well, but I didn't know that, it just come to me.
My wife's - music talent - zero and hates me going down memory lane, and says I should've been born in my Fathers time, but I don't bother telling her why I play them at times, mind you, some of the old ones a good.
South of the Border, Bridges of Paris, Solo Me O, All Day all night Merry Anne lol, We are Australian, Spanish Eyes, Spanish Harlem, just whatever.
LOL, Rock around the Clock, Dean Martin It's a Moroney, Running Bear lol, Boggy Woggy, Lets do the Twist.
LOL Dona Fago - I don't wanna play house as it makes my mummy Cry lol..
Could I have this last dance, Roses are Red, the likes of those You Tubes I sent.
Because it's a Big house, open and lots of tiles, it's a music payers heaven, as there is quite an eco effect, as it's double height ceilings in some parts, as there is a part two story.
If someone is in a room next to you and talks = it's a waste of time, due to the eco lol
