murphybridget Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 That fusion would be utterly unique! Morris Day's funk with Manzarek's accordion flair would create an unexpected and intriguing sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, in one of the bands I work with, we do a "West-of-England"-tinged bluegrass version of PR, and I dial up an accordion patch. Natch.
