Bosun Bill - Anglo Concertina Attempt
Vložit

- Still a bit sloppy, but the best recording I managed to get after about 2 weeks of trying. Starts to deteriorate close to the end, when the nerves kick in (I realise I haven't made too many mistakes. The mistake was then focusing on that fact XD).
You can find the sheet music I arranged for this here: musescore.com/...
I am using Gary Coover's tablature system. If you're unfamiliar, I would recommend giving one of his books a buy on Amazon, they're great resources to have, full of songs and easy to learn tablature.

that's not an attempt, that's just perfect!
LMAO my thoughts exactly
i actually LOVE the pauses, it makes it feel like he's drunk and hiccuping or stumbling, a VERY fitting image for bosun bill.
Sea Shanties aren't supposed to be perfect~ I think that's what makes them special in the first place. So your rendition is absolutely perfection~!
That's what we say at our sings. At least when we were live. Scuttlebutt is back to live 4/1/23. And, don't correct the language it. Sailors were not often book learned.
@@alwaysbearded1 what?
@@monikamorningstarshadlo4129sailors weren't book taught, meaning that what they did was imperfect which is what brings pirate stuff this feeling of freedome. there are no rules if you don't learn about them
Very nice.
The unintentional hesitation underlines the personality of Bosun Bill.
I can picture him holding his step for a second :)
inspires all of us to go play sea of thieves after a long time of not playing
You might say it's sloppy, but those slight changes give it all the character! It's a wonderful rendition and you should feel proud of it!
keep going bro, ur our _real_ pirate legend.
I plan on buying my first concertina soon this is the first song I plan on learning good job bro
Cheers, dude. I would recommend Gary Cooper's Pirate Songs for Concertina as a great starting purchase too. It'll explain the tablature I used on my sheet music (see description) and the book also has an arrangement of Grogg Mayles in it; he got permission from Robin Beanland to publish it. My arrangement of Bosun Bill is also fairly challenging, however his book has easier sea shanties too. So you can learn to play the instrument while still feeling the metaphorical winds of the high seas on your face :)
The imperfection added to the perfection of this pirate tune. Incredibly well done!
This was great, I have been trying to learn new songs on the concertina as well and without much of any music experience prior to playing I know how hard it is to accomplish more challenging pieces, such as what you have played. This was still very impressive despite the barely noticeable slip ups you had.
Well done! Would love to see "maiden voyage" in the future!
I think Concertina Joel's arrangement is the best. I have, however, transcribed his arrangement into the same tablature system I used for this, if you're interested it's here: musescore.com/user/37659330/scores/7162161
Good job. I've been planning to really practice but life gets in the way. When I retire I keep saying. Remember, here, recording you are putting yourself under intense scrutiny. In a live jam no one would notice. Hope to hear more.
Amazing i wish i could get a concertena or a hurdy gurdy
Great stuff! That was super fun to listen to and as I bit of a musician myself it is actually encouraging to hear the little hesitations and minor mistakes because it shows your effort and that it is still fun and beautiful!
Even when you hesitated and tripped up a little, you kept going! Great performance mindset, and amazing playing overall! Loved every second of this, keep it up (:
Just received my Easy Anglo 1-2-3 book and now it is off to the practice room until I get this instrument down..
It sounds beautiful! I've never heard this song before, but I bet your cover of the song was the best! ❤
Lyrics:
Sea of Thieves
we sailin with the team
we're headed up North as far as the eye can see
we're carefree, we have no need to flee
I hit a skeleton with my banshee
Sea of Thieves
we sailin with the team
we're headed up North as far as the eye can see
we're carefree, we have no need to flee
I hit a skeleton with my banshee
I'm getting the loot and doin the dash
Went to the Wilds and took all the cash
Whippin the sloop, I almost crashed
Saw a monster and I turned it to ash
Hit the outpost and I count up a band
Got twenty gems right down there in my hand
Blunderbuss, don't go on my land
Tryna step up boy, I don't give a damn
Sea of Thieves
we sailin with the team
we're headed up North as far as the eye can see
we're carefree, we have no need to flee
I hit a skeleton with my banshee
Sea of Thieves
we sailin with the team
we're headed up North as far as the eye see
we're carefree, we have no need to flee
I hit a skeleton with my banshee
Keep up the good work, that was just beautiful!
this song makes me remember playing sea of thieves: i would play this music while a friend and I are getting yelled at by another friend for blowing 8 holes in our ship with blunderbombs (in the middle of a fight with another ship)
that sounded amazing!
Enjoyed listening to this, thank you for sharing! :)
Amazing job! Really great arrangement of quite a tough piece!
Thanks man, that does mean a lot coming from you. Don't forget to check out my Summon the Megalodon cover too.
I didnt realise it was an attempt till the end of the song, False advertising, this is great
magnificent
You play like a pirate I only wish I had that skill
Прекрасно!
I have a 12-bass accordion and I've been able to fart out a very bad version of this but WOW this is great lol nice playing dude!
fuck yea dude! that was awesome! Im currently trying to learn this song on the mandolin and its tricky, but probably one of the best jams in that game. im still on the first 4 or 5 bars but this has made me want to practice. thanks for the inspiration lol
It sounds great, and I tried playing it, NOT SO EASY!!! great job man.
I bet you're knocking it out of park now.
Instruments take so much skill to use
So charming !
Nice.
Very good! It's not easy on an Anglo. (It's not a sea shanty BTW, as these are specifically work songs used on board square-riggers,always following a caller-and-response format.)
I listen to this on my down time, keep up the good work 🙂
Good job and well worth listening to!
Absolutely Awesome I'm playing sea of thieves listening to this 👍
If you ever see a Sloop called "Lone Shantyman", please don't shoot XD
very nice!! thanks for sharing with us!
Please teach me, this is beautifull.
Link to the sheet music is in the description :)
Beautiful
This is fantastic!
Very Nice! Its a good inspiration for me, cause I wanna play it on my hayden duet!
Goofy Ahh music💀jk that was great!
So beautiful
YOU can have a future!💪💪
But I don't understand why these videos are always flipped! Treble are on the right hand!
Wow that’s so cool! This is where I’m aiming for too. But how did you learn the song?
I arranged it myself for concertina, took several weeks of trial and error, trying new things and different bellows directions and bass notes till I finally settled with this. The sheet music is linked in the description, if you're interested
@@AngloKazooie wow that’s so cool! Thank you so much. I’ll check out your sheet for sure
Going to get scurvy at the sound of this with the boys
Wow its so cool, gg man +1 suscriber
MEGA TALENT BRO keep it up, also more subs than me damn
Sea of Thieves

*All together now*
Yarr!🏴☠️
Good shirt
The hard part is to keep holding the left mouse botton
For long shanty sessions do reduce interact to toggle. Makes you only need to click once :)
"DOWN SHE GO BOYS!!!, SHES A SINKER!!!. ABANDON SHIP YE NUMBSKULLS"
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢
please, anyone here could tell me the type / name of this accordion? trying to search "mini accordion" but dont find this cute design of the instrument.
found it right now: Concertina
@@iat.barbosa There are a few different types of Concertina too; English, Anglo, and Duet. The one I am playing is an Anglo Concertina in the keys of C/G (the most common keys you'll find)
@@AngloKazooie thank you for the kindness to reply with more details. ^^
This type has a beautiful sound.
Wish you the best from Brazil, keep playing and having fun!!
Great ! About the instrument, Marcus Music C/G Anglo concertina in 30 key ? What do you think about it ? thx
Thanks. I do not have much to base my observations on, I've only owned a very cheap Scarlatti, and now this. In terms of playability it's a big upgrade. The bellows are very airtight in comparison. It's also a slightly smaller instrument. The reeds are a lot more responsive than my old Scarlatti too, I don't feel there's much delay between pressing a button and the note playing. The buttons don't press all the way into the ends either, so you don't need to press as much to open the valves. All in all I've been happy with my purchase, but if you're just starting out a cheaper one will be harder to play well, but is much more cost effective. Plus, if you can play a cheap concertina well, you can play a good concertina even better
@@AngloKazooie oh ok ! thx a lot for your answer :)
nice shirt
Plz i need to know where you learn that from this is amazing!
Hey man, I posted a link to the sheet music I arranged in the video's description. If you're unaware of Gary Cooper's tablature system, I'd recommend Pirate Songs for Concertina on Amazon. It will explain the tablature, and also has sheet music for Grogg Mayles. Well worth it
what brand concertina? very very nice!
"attempt" he said. I'mma head back to bed hahaha
I know I'm way late to this vid but can you PLEASE post a tutorial? I'm getting a concertina for the entire purpose of playing this song
Hey dude. If you check the description I have added a like to the sheet music I arranged there.
I would recommend starting with Gary Coover's Pirate Songs for Concertina book. It will explain how to read the tablature system I used, has some easier, piratey songs to start learning with, and even has the sheet music for Grogg Mayles.
Most of the songs I have posted on CZcams I have linked sheet music in the description :)
Bro we queuing up for sea of thrives
what is the model of the instrument? Great job!
The instrument was made by Marcus Music in Wales
That sounded great...Can I ask what brand and model concertina you are playing there?
It's made by Marcus Music in Wales. It's their standard model with metal ends
@@AngloKazooie Ok, thanks for your reply. I am in the USA and trying to find a good quality instrument to buy in the vicinity. Still learning about what makes a good one. Best regards
@@rickschultz5159 there's a good page on concertina dot net on the current makes of concertina: www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?/topic/8925-current-makes-of-concertina/
