Frankie Yankovic's Polka Party



Alright, so I apologize for this long awaited update. As many of you know I am a very lazy man. Anyways, here we go again! This time we have Frankie Yankovic and His Yanks! Unlike the previously posted record, this album consists of a much smaller band. Personally, I enjoy their sound much more than the Polka Extravaganza. It's a very rustic, simple sounding recording. It consists of lots of banjos and organs. Very cool stuff. Speaking of the Polka Extravaganza, Frankie Yankovic and His Yanks also do a rendition of "Beer Barrel Polka". Thinking about it makes my mouth water for an ice cold brew and a salty pretzel.

Many of you may be wondering this, but no, Frankie is by no means related to Weird Al. I know, I was kinda bummed out too, but it turns out that Al played accordion on one of Frankie's last songs. Now that is pretty damn rad.

I hope you guys enjoy this one, and I promise you that updates will be more frequent!
