One Lunger in a band
Hope this raises a smile - posted on the Melodeon forum which I frequent under the heading 'If you don't have a drummer'

Can't think of a parallel using a Major but one of you inventive folk out there in Fordson land might

Re: One Lunger in a band
Hi
Thanks for posting, thats one of the better videos to come from tube , I've seen in a while . Tractor and the guys sound pretty good .
now with you saying about somebody from Fordson land, i wonder if the Bear creek crew ( Pat and Marc) can play a guitar or Banjo between them , and Get dueling Banjo's, from the film Deliverance , out of a 6 cyl major . My dad loves that tune when it's played right, and i have been known to listen to it when it pops up in the side bar on Tube once in a while .
Regards Robert

Hey thats a good idea Robert - it would need to be a lump that could run slowly and without a manifold to get the beat

Re: One Lunger in a band
DD, there are plenty of people who can film and upload to the tube (so I am informed by the 2 younger 'negative revenue units' in the family)
Musical tractor owners with the right sort of idea & exhaust on the other hand, thats rocking horse dropping territory

Re: One Lunger in a band
What a pity Pat
Probably not restricted to melodeonists but the term 'earworm' is used to describe this sort of effect where no matter how you try you just can't get it out of your head - short of a cordless drill & Forstner bit that is
I know a Corliss valved steam engine where the rhythm of the valvegear releasing catches engaging and releasing are just far enough off symetrical to do the same, unfortunately while I may be able to bang out a tune or two I'm not musical enough fit something suitable around the beat - unlike the One Cylinder Polka band

Re: One Lunger in a band
Lovely work!!!
The tractor is a 1950s Landini l35. A 35 hp hot-bulb, made in Italy. It looks lovely, especially, I think, when compared to its german (or australian) counterparts, the lanz d8506 and the aus. k.l. bulldog.
I am trying to think how their porformance would look like when the tractor revs up, or that they used a single-cylinder tractor with a higher rpm, say, a field marshall..!?

I may look and sound quite weird than an ordinary band, but when you look at it, it does work great!!

Re: One Lunger in a band
Yup, Got me a young un to get me on You Tube. I have an old friend that wanted to hear me play this particular song as she will not be around much longer. She lives in New Mexico so I thought it would be best to post it so she could hear it all she wanted. Dandy Dave!
