Czarivey - Not the style of music you'e likely thinking of but the greatest accordionist I've ever heard is Flaco Jiménez, the Conjunto, Norteño and Tejano music master from San Antonio. His command of the instrument and his musical range are exceptional.
He's won six Grammy awards including a Lifetime Achievement Award and has worked with a long list of other great (or famous) musicians including Ry Cooder, David Lindley, Peter Rowan, Doug Sahm, The Rolling Stones, Dr. John, Dwight Yoakam, and many others.
