POLKA

Through The Rye by Take Five

Why?

I'm a Polish kid who grew up on the NW side of Chicago. Went to a Catholic grammar school that had nothing but Polish, Italian & Irish parishioners. The carnival that my Catholic grammar school put on was always two weeks long, and numerous Polka bands performed. I remember my uncles requenting the beer garden when good Chicago Polka bands would perform ( Eddie Blazonczyk & The Ampolaires).

And BTW, what's wrong with Polka music?

What makes Polka music good? Heavy bass, trumpet, clarinet, and good drumming. A good accordian player is essential.

Yes, I may be Polish, but I do use deodorant, and I don't wear black socks with brown sandals - LOL

Nothing wrong with polka music. I enjoy it in limited doses. I wish I could master the dance because it looks fun but I never could get the hang of it.
