This is not what it looks like! Careless Love has just been one of our favourite songs recently – it seems to suit Julie very well and I like to play it ever since I found that all the 7ths that make a blues-style song work are available to two-row box players.

We thought it would be fun to try an experiment – accompanying Julie’s singing using the melodeon. We imagined it would make a nice change and this is the result! The song was originally composed by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans, and a very nice, deceptively simple piece of work it is.
